Abstract
This paper suggests more improved war-game modeling methodology for close combat attrition modeling. Military operation analysts have been using equation-based modeling techniques such as Lanchester-type differential equation modeling, for combat attrition evaluation. This modeling methodology is easy to analyze and evaluate the war-game simulation results but has several limitations to simulate the dynamic combat environment. To overcome these shortcomings, we propose the agent-based modeling methodology. This methodology is modeling close combat based in attrition behaviors instead of attrition coefficients. The simulation analysis & evaluation is executed for these two kinds of modeling methodology on the similar close combat situation.
