frag
n.— «Could call this a “FRAGO” style exercise. When the players first assemble online they have no choices with regard to the initial tactical disposition nor organization of their unit markers. They get a simple frag order and one hour to cross the line of departure.» —“TacOps Gazette 02.02″ by Major H (majorh@mac.com) Usenet: comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.strategic Oct. 27, 2002.
