Expert InsightsPublished 1991

This paper comprises five short pieces written as an internal colloquy at RAND in the summer and fall of 1964 and reproduced as originally presented. The exchange of ideas it represents began as a response to some misinterpretations in crisis gaming and displays a spirit of uninhibited exchange among friends and colleagues. The paper is designed to make generally available observations and ideas about crisis gaming which continue to prove interesting to a new generation of gaming theorists.
