On a serious note. Didn't the US pre-Iraq do a wargame , where the OPFOR forces went low-tech and beat the US. The generals got mad, so they changed the rules that the opfor had to use technology.....and the US won. I guess that doesn't look to good on the resume that you lost to a bunch of goat herders.
