Ada
The rules do not specifiy if an Ace is high or low, in what order the collected cards are added to the winner's hand, or what happens if a player has fewer than two cards left during a War. This solution uses: Aces are high; the winner's cards are collected before the loser's, in the order played; the player's last card is used to determine the winner.

A game is quite lengthy. No attempt is made to display the output of a running game here. A typical ending condition is
Q875JTQ67683A7AJA8KKTKJ9Q47396A4K6Q4J2T495253232T895 Player 2 wins
This shows Player 1's hand (which is empty), Player 2's hand (top card on the left), and the game result. Since only ranks are significant, only ranks are shown.

- The Bicycle rules are set up by default.
- When the winning player picks up cards, the cards are randomized when added to the bottom of the player's deck. see Raku for details.
- Other variations can be played by passing different parameters.

jq
Adapted from Wren
Works with jq, the C implementation of jq
Works with gojq, the Go implementation of jq
Since jq currently has no built-in PRNG, the following solution uses /dev/random on the assumption that jq is invoked along the lines of the following:
< /dev/random tr -cd '0-9' | fold -w 1 | jq -cnrR -f war.jq
where "war.jq" is the name of a file containing the jq program.

Raku
The linked Bicycle cards site has slightly different rules for War! than how I used to play when I was but a lad. Implement it both ways.
Some rules are not nailed down very well. Here is how I interpreted it:
- The values of the cards 2-10 are face value; Jack, Queen, King and Ace may effectively be treated as: 11, 12, 13 & 14.
- Each player plays one card face up. The player whose card is the highest value takes both of the played cards and adds them to the bottom of his deck.
- When one player runs out of cards and is not able to place enough cards to finish a round, he loses.
- If both players play a card of the same value, it is then War!
- Bicycle rules: each player then plays another card face down then another face up.
- thundergnat rules: each player then plays three cards face down then another face up. (Tends to make for shorter games.)
- If the final face-up cards are different, the player playing the higher value card takes all of the played cards and adds them to the bottom of his deck
- If they are the same, continue with rounds of War! until one player plays a higher value war card or a player runs out of cards.
- When the winning player picks up his cards. the cards are randomized when added to the bottom of his deck. (Cuts a typical game from multi thousands of rounds to multi hundreds of rounds)
Pass in which variant you want to play 2 down, (Bicycle), --war=2, 4 down (thundergnat), (default), --war=4 or 3 down (????) , --war=3. By default, there is a short delay (.1 seconds) between rounds so you can watch what is going on. Pass in a larger/smaller value to slow down or speed up how long the game takes. --sleep=0 or whatever.
In glorious ANSI color! (The output loses much when pasted in as text so show output as screenshot images.)

I've assumed that if a player runs out of cards during a 'war', then the other player automatically wins the game. The Bicycle card company's rules don't appear to cover this eventuality
I've also assumed that if a player wins a round, his/her own cards (in the order played) are added back to the bottom of his/her hand before the other player's cards.
