Decision Process


Decision Process


  • Receive Mission:  Your mission is given to you at the start of a scenario, ensure you fully understand what is expected of you and your force.
  •  Estimate the Situation:  You then immediately begin to estimate the situation.  This step, along with the reconnaissance and issue orders steps are ongoing processes that will not end until the battle does.
  • Create a Tentative Plan:  This plan is created from the situation estimateThis step will also get your major formations moving towards their likely jump off positions or defensive locations.  These movements should be used to task organize and arrange your forces for the final orders, which will come later.
  • Conduct Reconnaissance:  The tentative plan, along with information gathered from the situation estimate will drive your reconnaissance.  Your reconnaissance will add data to the situation estimate and will help finalize the plan.
  • Finalize Plan:  The information your reconnaissance gathers will be used to adjust your situation estimate and to finalize your plan.  You can then task your reconnaissance with this final plan in mind.
  • Issue Orders:  As the situation changes you will need to change or adjust orders.  Use your situation estimate and reconnaissance to give you enough time to be able to make these adjustments.
