Also if it’s the wargame I’m thinking of, it had a ton of controversial issues like the simulator not properly simulating ship defenses, or the simulation allowing rowboats to be equipped with ICBMs
It was a huge operation based on a whole bunch of new software and also on actual live personnel doing their part in the overall plan in person; it was wild.
E.g. I don’t fully know the details but based on what I was reading today it kind of sounds like they couldn’t position the ships where they actually would be for an operation, and they couldn’t turn the auto-defenses of the ships on, because there was a bunch of civilian shipping in the area and they had to run their whole operation without the defense computer being active because otherwise it might get frisky and decide to blow up an oil tanker or something.

I’m not seeing the problem
