  1. Bibliography

This study is an expansion by AI of fifteen decision records published by AEGIS, a studio in the RISCON family. Every case is an authored synthetic setting: AEGIS marks each one realistic synthetic, calls each record an authored question seed whose judgment mark is the author's record and not a factual basis from public records, and says of the programme that every figure, question and actor is the author's assumption and refers to no public record and to no real person, unit or facility. The war histories, manuals, classics, releases, declassified files, memoirs, wargames, minutes and reports the cases speak of are therefore part of the authored setting, not sources this study or AEGIS cites. AEGIS published the records in Korean; the English in this study is a translation made once by the editorial session of this study, sentence by sentence, and each case's English seed names the Korean original by its hash. Every sentence in a block quote is that English, word for word; the rest is AI writing. No case carries a completed decision: each carries the author's marked recommendation and waits for input. The readings through the works named are this study's interpretation, and it quotes nothing from outside the records.

Every sentence in a quotation block is AEGIS's record, word for word. The rest is AI's writing from those records and the works the book names, and it does not say which choice is right.
