IntroductionBuilding an ArmyPlanningYou are Here!StrategyTacticsResources Style
There are two styles by which a war can be fought: Attrition and Manoeuvre. Attrition is a brute force test of strength, the aim being to destroy your opponent's army through force and firepower. Control is centralised and success depends on your army's ability to inflict and absorb casualties. The basic tenet is to attack strength with strength.
Manoeuvre warfare attacks your opponent's System, not the components. You're not necessarily looking for a high body count. Many of your opponent's units will remain untouched though essentially useless as they can't engage. The tenet here is to attack weakness with overwhelming strength.
In reality, all strategic approaches contain elements of both styles, though it is usually better to concentrate on one.
