Scenario of the Month
This month’s featured ShadowBox scenario is a re-purposed Tactical Decision Game (TDG). TDGs were popularized in the Marine Corps in the 1990s as a way to improve tactical skill and decision making ability. As one of the earliest TDGs, it long predates the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, although it has generated valuable discussions with applicability to both conflicts.
