First lock the intel: spend a few percent of the budget on reconnaissance and data gathering so you know the enemy’s plans. Then split the rest in three tiers – frontline units, reserves, and support. Frontline gets the bulk of the troops but keep a thin screen of scouts ahead. Reserves should be mobile, high‑tech, ready to plug holes. Support focuses on logistics, artillery, and air cover, making sure supply lines never break. Constantly feed the engine with real‑time updates; every decision is a loop, so the system can recompute as the situation changes. The key is keeping the cost of each move below the cost of a loss – that’s where the decisive edge comes from.
