Marines break ground on new war game center Quantico, Virginia, Wargaming Center official groundbreaking on May 12. MARINE CORPS BASE QUANTICO, Virginia ― The Marine Corps broke ground here on what it plans will be a state-of-the-art war gaming center, to direct war fighting experiments and pull feedback from across the fleet to continuously refine how Marines fight. Lt. Gen. Eric Smith told the audience that the $79 million center will help get resources, whether that’s equipment or new tactics, to Marines in the field quicker. “It’s a big deal to those 19-year-olds here, to the ones down at Parris Island or at San Diego, because they do the fighting and the dying,” Smith said. “We’re going to make sure they do less of the dying part by what we do here.”
