No One Wins in Nuclear War: A Social Simulation of Military Decision-making
arXiv:2608.01868v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: WOPR is a social-simulation environment for studying how organizations make high-stakes decisions, built on a deterministic, replay-validated rules engine and using wargames as the vehicle. We instantiate it first with the published card game Nuclear War, traced against its published rules. We start with military decision-making because of its safety implications and because it needs further study, but the design is not specific to it: the decision
