    The real issue here is not the fact the US lost, but the fact that 'gamey' style tactics were used by Van Riper. I really really doubt Iraq would attack the US in the gulf, they know in the end that would mean their destruction and give the US every right to hammer them into dust. As it was a pre-setup game, Van Ripers attack was made in the full knowledge that the US was about to attack, something again that won't happen in real life. Having said this, fair play to him for winning :)
