The word "gamified" comes to mind.

Still, I think there are important tradeoffs here. It's much easier to run a gamified version of a historical scenario (or a scenario from whole cloth) since you can still try to teach the lessons learned without having to rely on context or ideas that would have been obvious to the leader at the time.

For example, something like the ability of a horse to traverse broken ground or pull a cart up a hill might be obvious to the officer at the time, but not to the person working through the problem today.
