Reminds me of the old play by mail war games

It has become obvious that the info being given to the news about future plans is not necessarily what they have in mind. And it is obvious that the original plan has been modified into something very different. This is normal; the first plan always goes to crap after contact. The thing that has me scratching my head is the lack of a heavy armored division. It is as if they wanted to make sure that this was an infantry war, not just a seek and kill against Saddam. But then why have two armored divisions packed up and ready to move? And where are the RoRo’s right now? I have been checking all of the usual sources, and have found no mention of them, except for the ships of the 4thMInf. Also, the First Arm. seems to be cutting way back on operations, at the same time they are flushing out with reservists. If we were war gaming this, I would be rounding up some larger maps right about now. I hope that the long range goals only included Iraq. The holding of the hard hitting units in reserve has me wondering. The units in country now, will require a long refit after Baghdad falls, but since they are not the first string; I wonder what the starters are being saved for?
