Video: How NATO uses War Gaming

Exercise STEADFAST FOXTROT was NATO's first ever enablement themed war game. 

NATO personnel came together at Joint Support and Enablement Command (JSEC), Ulm, Germany, to put their logistical and enablement strategies to the test in a realistic tabletop scenario. 

The exercise focused on NATO's options for moving and sustaining forces across vast distances in an article five scenario. The method was a turn based game, featuring custom made cards, chips and maps. NATO commanders were confronted with realistic, complex logistical problems, allowing them to be prepared for any outcome in an uncertain world.
