Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1962, vol. 9, issue 2, 65-79

Abstract: A Blotto game is a mathematical formulation of the problem of allocating forces in certain military situations, particularly when they are concerned with. an initial strike. In this paper an approximate method of solution is introduced. This is based on a new game involving the mean numbers of forces allocated to each battlefield in the original game.
