Simulations and the military

An interesting bit from the Atlantic on the military version of SimCity.

Back in my board wargaming days in junior high, my favorite company, Simulations Publications Inc.

A bit of poking around looking for a good link on Firefight (buy it here!) led to this interesting page. Another book to add to the list ...

Addendum: not actually a book but an online document.
