Decision Point: Battlegroup Operational Simulator

Decision Point: Battlegroup Operational Simulator is a tactical wargame about intent, action, and reaction.
Players issue NATO-standard, intent-based orders using authentic AAP-6C terminology, marking clear objectives and operational guidance directly onto real-world terrain maps. Subordinate units interpret and execute these plans autonomously in real time, adapting dynamically to terrain, threats, and evolving battlefield conditions.

At its core, Decision Point simulates the full operational planning cycle—where players apply doctrinal intent to orders, observe autonomous execution, and react to unfolding enemy plans through dynamic adaptation. When contact occurs, operations pause—giving commanders a critical moment to reassess, adapt, and issue updated orders.

Decision Point models the friction of warfare, challenging commanders to continually reshape their plans in response to enemy actions, terrain constraints, and operational uncertainty.

Core Features

Command Through Intent
Issue doctrinally grounded orders using AAP-6C terminology. Define operational objectives directly on the map, communicating mission purpose. Orders flow through the chain of command—from broad company-level guidance to detailed tasking at platoon and section level. AI-Executed Plans
Once orders are given, subordinate AI elements interpret and carry them out autonomously. Units manoeuvre, coordinate, and adapt based on terrain, threat, and mission context. Plans unfold in real time, allowing players to observe their intent executed across the battlespace and plan their next response to changing situations.Dynamic Decision Points
No plan survives first contact. When enemy contact occurs, the simulation pauses at a Decision Point. These pauses give commanders the opportunity to reassess their plan and respond before execution resumes—creating a natural rhythm of planning, action, and adaptation.Real-World Terrain
Every map is built using real-world geographic data, including road networks, elevation, rivers, forests, and urban structures. These terrain features directly influence visibility, movement, positioning, and firing positions—mirroring the real-world tactical and operational constraints of the environment. Operational Objectives: Main Supply Routes (MSRs)
Main Supply Routes and junctions are treated as critical terrain. Attackers must secure and sustain MSRs to maintain operational momentum. Defenders can contest key corridors to disrupt logistics and collapse offensive plans. Success is measured not only by ground held, but by whether operations can be sustained through it. Powerful Scenario Editor
Design tightly focused engagements or large-scale operations. Define the area of operations, assign forces and roles, and build layered AI-driven battleplans with timed manoeuvres and reactive logic. Scenarios can be played solo against advanced AI or online in competitive player-versus-player matches. Combined with real-world maps and flexible mission design, this offers extensive replayability and strategic challenge.
