As the name suggests, this thread is intended to be a gathering ground for battlefield strategy and tactics, as they apply to M2TW. To some of you these things undoubtedly come quite easily, but others may not share that military genius. This is your chance to share that knowledge and experience.
I'd like the thread to stay about the game - real life is okay, provided it can be applied successfully to M2TW. With that in mind, some of the useful contributions I can think of include the following:
Military Doctrine - General rules and principles to use whenever commanding a battle.
Formations and Maneuvers - Includes discussion of how best to deploy your troops and maneuver them in the field.
Tactical Concepts - This is the heart of battle: how to utilize your units to efficiently and effectively defeat the enemy. "Hammer & Anvil" is one popular example of such a concept.
Effective Countering - Specific ways to avoid, nullify, or take advantage of a given enemy tactic. One possibility might address how to counter an enemy flanking maneuver.
I'm sure there are more I'm not thinking of, but you get the idea. So, without further ado, let the ideas roll.
