What math topics will allow me to design games as beautifull as chess and go?

What is game theory about?

If I recall correctly the Barnett Equation is pretty much the foundation of chess and go
Pretty advanced stuff though

About whether or not you should shoot other people in the head

Game theory is about why rational self interest is unoptimal.

Game theory couls help. It's all about creating mathematical models of different situations, and finding the best option for the players involved given the payoff of a given choice with respect to the other players strategy

But the game is out there, and it's either play or get played.-Omar Little

bump.

Game theory was my favorite Economics class I took. Learning it will help you design games, of course, but really making games is more about learning the math after the fact. You figure out what you want to implement, and then think "how do I actually program this?"

Is this for real

Agreed, there are some pretty big things in it

How many troll things are in this equation? I can only spot three with my limited Veeky Forums meme knowledge.
