Abstract

War game is a decision-making technique, the results of which can affect the strategic level of state defense management. The Directive of the Government of the Slovak Republic on Planning of the State Defense specifies that the war game may be applied in the planning of the use of the Armed Forces of the Slovak Republic for the purposes of state defense. However, this Directive, or any other document, does not specify how it is to be applied. This paper therefore deals with the definition, history and purpose of war games. In addition, it contains the typology of war games, its elements, participants, processes and phases (steps) of the war game. The aim is to provide basic information that can be used in the processing of own procedures (within the Slovak Republic) for the application of this decisionmaking method in the field of planning of national defense.
