Depends on what those do and whether there is competition or not. Serious game probably (which in itself is a very wide term).

A TTX is a moderated discussion on a specific topic which potentially uses components to represent a certain state of things, but has no game mechanisms and usually not a red team (both of which make it different from a matrix wargame for example).

No, it hasn't. But if you compare all the various definitions there are usually 3 minimal requirements: opposition/human players (I'm personally temding to include serious games), synthetic experience created by game mechanism, players have to deal with the consequences of their actions.

And no, your uniform doesn't make any of your statements more true than mine which are those of the professional international #wargaming community.

But what do I know. Going back to my 5 years of experience in professional #wargaming, modeling and simulation, and scientific analysis

Sowieso.

Ich fürchte, die werden mich üblen Zionisten nicht einladen.

The battlefield gets chaotic as the units can freely move about, there are leaders which provide boni but no real divisions or other formations. I'd consider it C&C but with better command mechanism.

With the French cavalry surging the battlefield and roaming in the enemy's rear, the Austrian and German morale breaks. Bonaparte has repelled the second major Habsburg campaign to relieve Mantua.

Jourdan organizes a massive counterattack, bringing the Trombalora back under French control.

While the Austrian guns play heavily on the worn-out republicans, the French cavalry scatters the tyrant's regiments before them.

Habsburg assault columns surge forward, rolling up Jourdan's position. Lusignan is beating the French back from Gazzoli to Rivoli.

French forces rally. The Habsburg guns have different ideas, though, repelling Rey's and Masséna's columns.

The republican cavalry strikes again, taking two batteries and routing hussars.

Further skirmishing along the lines.
Masséna drives his soldiers forward relentlessly, routing the enemy position.
Lusignan's regiment succesfully assaults the Trombalora from the rear.

Fairly streamlined with some details to remember, but you get used to it. I do quite like the order, rally and reinforcement mechanism. Forces you to plan ahead, then issue orders at the right point in time, but also has a push your luck aspect to it, as your opponent is doing the same.

Liptay continues attacking Trombalora to no avail. Vukasovic's artillery arrives on the Adige's left bank, while Lusignan's column has completed its flank march.

Beware the republican horse! Lasalle charges Alvinczy's guns, while Masséna's dragoons frontally assault those of Quasdanovich.

Masséna maneuvers his forces against Quasdanovich and securing Gazzoli.

The Habsburg artillery sends one of his demi-brigades on a rout, while the French guns devastate a dragoon regiment near San Marco.
