Multiple transparent layers that can be populated with troops and logistics, diagrammed with text in balloons, turned into STELLA or VenSim diagrams (ie Forrester-style stocks and flows) and superimposed on maps with GPS capabilities seems to me to be the MINIMUM needed for contemporary equivalent of walking around a map on a table, moving little tin soldiers around.
