3Will 3Agent 3D 

After an infinite amount of time* and research endeavour, including empirical testing and phenomenological analysis, the experimental framework of our initial hypothesis has been transformed into a CIA mission intelligence simulation that;

• resembles the style of a traditional 2D board game.

• is inspired by the mathematics of bounded & biased random walks, toroidal geometry and communications network topology.

• allows degrees of choice to emerge from a 3Will^ mechanism that, essentially, is a nondeterministic state machine.

• has a generic structure that can be reinterpreted in various ways.

• features stacking  protocol, similar to a limited column concept.

• was independently conceived and developed without previous knowledge of Bashni, Lasca or variants of Chess.

• predates public knowledge of any existent intelligence data clouds or CIA training games.

* The integral of the quanta of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past.

^ 3Will be what 3Will be (cf. Exodus 3:14).

Basic tenets 

Some of the fundamental principles adopted for the game's design and continuing development are;

• an intentionally physical format, with real player interactions.

• nothing can be added to or removed from the "world".

• the interface should be as simple and generic as possible.

• rules must be heuristically intuitive, consistent and fair.

• modelled encounters try to emulate real scenarios without harm.

• events are probabilistic; players embrace risk and uncertainty.

• the only acquirable skill might be cognitive perseverance.

Bashni
A 19th century Russian checkers variant with "column" forming instead of removing taken pieces.

Emanuel Lasker
The famous German chess champion, mathematician and philosopher. Considered one of the strongest chess players of all time.

Lasca
The game that Lasker invented in 1911, based on a form of Bashni.
