Early Synthetic Prototype: Higher Echelon (ESP:HE)

ESP:HE is prototype brigade-level tactical game (simulation) developed for the Army Capabilities Integration Center to facilitate the collection of combat development data generated by ordinary soldiers. The purpose of the game is to provide insights into the combined arms integration of various, proposed future combat systems during combat operations against a future enemy force. Soldiers role-play tactical unit commanders of future brigade and below units while conducting offensive and defensive operations during hypothetical future conflicts.
