[niinnldp] War games

Given the descriptions of the opposing sides of a battle (or war), predict who will win, and how.

Given the description of the opposing side, formulate a strategy (within constraints) that offers the greatest chance for victory.

Of course, these are holy grails for computer battle simulation.  How accurate will these predictions become as computers become more powerful?

Inspired by tank designs and redesigns after discovery that a tank did not work so well in battle.
