Command Professional Edition (Command PE / CPE) is the pro-oriented superset of Command: Modern Operations, the award-winning wargame that took the serious gaming community by storm. CPE is available for professional use by commercial, government and military organizations.

Boasting “by default” its powerful, scalable simulation engine, flexible and customizable user interface and breathtaking open-source database, CPE can be tailored to meet your organization’s wargaming, training, analysis and  M&S needs.

THE SWISS ARMY KNIFE OF MILITARY GAMING & SIMULATION

 

  • Interactive & statistical analysis of hardware, systems, tactics & CONOPS, logistics etc.
  • Staff training
  • Modeling & Simulation, both as a standalone tool and integrated into existing M&S environments
  • Wargaming, in standalone mode or as part of larger gaming environments (MBXs, staff exercises etc.)

BUILT ON SOLID FOUNDATIONS

SCOPE:

  • Air, naval, near-space, strategic and ground (limited) operations
  • Tactical / Operational scale: technical, tactical and human factors matter, but so do intelligence, doctrine, sustainment, logistics and long-term planning
  • From 1-vs-1 tactical engagements all the way to theater- and global-wide conflict.

BREADTH AND DEPTH

  • A peerless open-source database of aircraft, ships, submarines, ground units, satellites and their sub-systems & components
  • All major military forces from 1946 to the near-future
  • Physics- and effects-based kinematics, sensor, weapon/warhead/damage and other models
  • High priority focus on accuracy & detail

EASE OF USE

  • Construct a simple scenario in minutes – and automate building ever-bigger blocks for your monster setups
  • Standard Windows interface, commodity PC hardware
  • Extensive training and support options available

FLEXIBILITY: YOUR DATA, YOUR MODELS, YOUR SIM

  • Simulation data separate from the core engine
  • Powerful, integrated database editor and related tools
  • Create a new variant of an existing platform or component in minutes – or create a new item from scratch
  • Customizable terrain & environment
  • Configurable mechanics overrides: Change how the simulation internals work – make it simpler, more complex, or integrate your own sensitive/proprietary material

AN ANALYST’S PLAYPEN

  • Export various events to numerous export destinations (raw text, XML, databases, custom tools etc.)
  • Export unit positions, AI logic, weapon engagements, fuel consumption and transfer, air & docking ops and more
  • Analyze interactively (just like playing a game) or go massive with automated (Monte Carlo) mode
  • Run multiple analysis runs concurrently – either on same scenario or different variations
  • Go big with automated command-line execution for massive-scale analysis (machine learning, large datasets etc.)
  • View results summaries and drill-down to factors/causes of outliers & surprises
  • Store for long-term analysis or feed data to real-time dashboards – or both at the same time!
  • Step up to advanced 3D visualization using Tacview or SIMDIS

WORKS WITH YOUR EXISTING SYSTEMS

  • Numerous options for interoperability & data export & exchange
  • Connect directly to running simulation from outside system through TCP/IP and Lua
  • Selectively override built-in mechanics and replace them with external replacements
  • Fine-grained collaboration – delegate as much or as little work to CPE as you want
  • DIS support

USED AND TRUSTED WORLDWIDE

  • Established and diverse user base in US armed services, NATO & allied military services
  • Multiple state, private & NGO organizations
  • Commercial entertainment version (CMANO & CMO) unofficially used worldwide

LICENSE TIERS

Command-PE is available in several license versions to suit intended user base, feature needs and budgets:

  • Mil/Gov Edition is a “license upgrade” to commercial CMANO/CMO, and constitutes the ideal choice for government & private-sector organizations that do not require Command-PE’s additional features but wish to employ the commercial CMANO/CMO product for professional use. (Use of the commercial CMANO license in professional context is prohibited by the EULA) 
  • Student Edition is suitable for use by military academies and other teaching/training environments where an affordable, mass-deployed software solution is desirable. It is very similar in feature set to the commercial version of CMANO/CMO but differs in licensing and pricing options.
  • Academic Edition is suitable for government & private-sector organizations that require Command-PE’s powerful analysis features, but do not need to alter the simulation’s default data & models.
  • Standard Edition offers a big leap in capabilities as it enables full database editing, Monte-Carlo (headless) analysis, Lua TCP/IP connectivity and high-resolution terrain data and offline satellite maps.
  • Premium Edition unleashes the full power of Command-PE with dedicated command-line version for truly massive-scale analysis, integrated mechanics overrides, DB migration & merge tools, DIS support and the ability to run in a secure (isolated from the Internet) network.

Per-seat, site-wide and enterprise-wide licensing options are available.
