hi.

maybe it was better to put my question in game design section but maybe AI developers can give better answers.

im searching for military logics for strategy and tactics.

for example what are tactics and intelegent positioning in offences and deffences and how forces and teames move and best choices in different situations of conflict and ... . im working on a military MultiPlayer game that AI,s take part too. i need to players choose different tactics and NPCs follow as their tactics or AI commander choose right commands based on players tactics and moves. for example what is best choice when you are on defence and enemy is stronger or more than you or how you should do when enemies come from different ways or different tactics in closed places or in wide open places or these kind of questions. i searched a bit on internet but i couldnt find so much.

thank you for helping

What are you searching for? I appear to be getting some interesting stuff just by searching for "strategy game AI".

i searched for "modern military strategies and tactics for units and individuals"

From my understanding there is a high chance of me being wrong but, in modern warfare they usually use squads of something like 7+ people. There is usually one person that is more in charge of radio messaging. It might not matter a lot for AI development, but there are quite some hand sings as well for squad movement.

I would also think of something like morale with smaller squads, how would it affect performance. Also something like fatigue, how it can make people hallucinate from the lack of sleep. Maybe even discipline, do troops take orders?

Then you could think about military logistics, like how to cut ones supply line and what is the affect of it.

Anyways that is just some random thoughts you might want to consider or just completely drop, because these things do not matter/aren't suited for the game you are making.

Edit: I would probably look for SWAT tactics in the internet, if I were to look something really modern one.

What time period is your game based in? Or is it some kind of futuristic game with units different to any of those that would have been used at any point in human history?

Do you want to read real military goudebook ?

Real tactics and game tactics so different specially for game.

some real military guides:

But most of them can't be used for gamedev.

I suggest to view guide on battlefield for small groupes.

thank you, you gave a very good source to read
