General wargaming tactics
Posted: Fri Jun 22, 2012 7:49 am
Hi all,
Been away for a long time due to work. But you can't keep a wargaming addict down for long
I have been thinking a lot about wargaming tactics (as opposed to specifically real life tactics). I was browsing through Sun Tzu the other day, thinking how I could bring some of it to life in wargames (where you can see the whole battlefield and know how to predict what is going to happen - as opposed to real life where you hope for the best).
Something he wrote sparked my tactical mind and I came up with a blog post entitled "Sun Tzu Says: Grab Your Opponent By The Nuts"
Yep, not quite the Confucius style wisdom we came to expect from the great man, but useful just the same - especially for those that often play the same opponents.
You can check it out here if you are interested.

And I'd appreciate any feedback you can offer.
Many thanks and game on!
