    So in Pape's simple terms of sticks.

    Strategy is the how and why of where you are going to send your pointy sticks.

    Including things like logisitics and season.

    So you go to war with America in WWII as the Japanese.
    You decide that you need a quick win against the fleet.
    So you choose to attack Pearl Harbour,

    The choice of using torpedos from planes over submarines is a tactical choice.

    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.
