[Mobhack]

These guys did run some command post exercise type games back in the 80s from what I recall reading in "Battle" magazine etc:

The military does that sort of thing on a regular basis - just use the command post radio vehicles without the need for everybody else to go out and about. Tests HQ procedures without expending fuel, digging up Farmer Giles fields etc.
