		Jim pointed out that 90% of the military are non-combatants, and this market needs to be addressed.
		Jim spoke a lot about operations research, which I'm not familiar with but plan to look into.

		Speaking of design philosophy, there is a genuine Dunnigan game on the net: The Hundred Years War, a collaboration with Al Nofi, and owned by StrategyWorld.com Considering that he has been interested in computers since way back, it is unsurprising that this is an online game, around since 1992.
		While Dunnigan’s reputation among wargamers results from his hundred or so designs, he is also a skilled writer and editor.

		And, in a not-entirely-cheerful take on the Iraq situation, Jim Dunnigan observes that the Ba'ath remnants are counting on us giving up too soon:
		What is going on in Iraq is a continuation of the civil war between the Sunni Arabs and the other groups (who are 80 percent of the population), with coalition troops doing most of the fighting.
		Dunnigan goes on to suggest that a year of this sort of effort will reduce the Ba'ath holdouts to the level of other criminal gangs in the area.

		Dunnigan agreed to take over the publication of Strategy and Tactics magazine, seeing it as a vehicle for launching and advertising his test series of experimental games that he and some friends had been working on (the Avalon Hill General accepted no outside advertising).
		The team of Dunnigan and Simonsen, for they were very much a team at this point, changed the hobby forever and the pace of its growth and outreach began to noticeably quicken.

		Dunnigan argues that the "lack of an opponent" problem was never a problem at all: He cites statistics compiled while he was at SPI that indicated that "90 percent" of all wargamers "were always content to play the games solitaire.
