Of the many concepts that we have covered over the course of this show, few are as ephemeral as the idea of coup d'œil. The ability to see at a glance what opportunities are afforded by our situation is a great boon, whether it is a talent we come by naturally or have had to train in ourselves. A bit more accessible concept would be that of zone defense, a strategy that many who watch or play sports will already be familiar with. This episode shows us how these two concepts are related to one another when campaigning. Join Malark as we see how to approach our enemy with the most advantage from our positioning as possible, marrying together the ideas of the cordon and the key.

The fighting fields of Europe offer a plethora of situations and biomes to analyze. It is from this analysis that we are able to make our theories concerning war. While Clausewitz was able to draw upon this rich information for his own theories, the lack of certain conditions in Europe caused gaps in tactical knowledge. As he himself explains, one is hard pressed to find large theaters of European conflict that is dominated by operations in deep heavy forests and swamps. While these extreme biomes do exist in Europe, they are few and often not the focus of campaigns. We then need to fill in the gaps with our analysis of other conflicts, such as the US involvement in the Pacific Campaign of WWII and the Vietnam War. Join Malark as he strives to do just that in this episode on the defense of forests and swamps.

Rivers present a unique challenge when it comes to the prosecutions of a campaign. Much like mountains, they have their own rules and ways of navigating them. This is a very exact science because choosing the right method of defense can be quite hazardous and requires a practiced mind. In this episode, Malark plunges deep into the unexpectedly complex concept in the Defense of Rivers.

Over the course of this study, we have sought the heart of strategy that lies in the works of one of history's most prolific figures: the commander and statesman Napoleon. His wisdom reaches from across the centuries, the boldness and decisiveness of which are as useful today as they were when first penned to the page. This is not to say that all of his tactical advice is still entirely sound, as technology has accelerated massively since he last walked the earth. Naval battles, for instance, are no longer fought entirely within easy sight, but also by carriers beyond the horizon and submarines beneath it. Yet, despite discrepancies like this, many of his ruminations still hold true. Sit down with Malark as we work through our last installment of the Napoleonic Maxims.

There are many realities about war that are understandably upsetting. This episode contains several such realities, such as the long term consequences of landmines and the brutal practice of taking hostages. And while concepts like this may not have direct application to many forms of wargaming, it is still important to understand them within the context of actual war. Napoleon discusses these concepts in his own time and they remain relevant to us in this age. To contrast some of these dark topics, Desi and Zuloo join us from the East of Belegarth to chat about their meta and recent developments

How do we best use our troops? How do we prioritize our actions based on our capabilities? These have been questions on the minds of commanders throughout history. Napoleon, as always, has some good advice for us on the matter. Malark explores these questions and more as we break back into Napoleon and have a game with one of our favorites opponents: Todo

When we look at leadership, it is easy to see that there are many functions that require their own sort of leader. A general of engineering is expected to have vastly different qualities than a general of the cavalry. Often when we study military science we do so from the perspective of the General of the Army, but this same general trusts in the competence of the officers who are placed in these more specific functions, because even the most competent of commanders need to delegate. Malark seeks insight on this topic within the next set of Napoleonic Maxims.

Napoleon's direct approach to war also features in his maxims, where he often trades detail for brevity. One of the topics he writes most on is that of qualities necessary for command. In this episode, Malark walks alongside Napoleon as he describes the qualities of an ideal commander

As we begin the homestretch of our study of Napoleon's Maxims, we begin to see more and more evidence of Napoleon's psyche expressed in his written ideas on military science. It becomes easy to see why he would call himself an emperor and have the bravado to engage the majority of Europe in open conflict. Malark continues our study of this fascinating mind.

The task of the scholar is a complicated one. Not only must one read and understand what is being read, in addition it is vital to place the information in a cultural and historic context. Nothing is written in a vacuum, and as we know the historic setting is important to true understanding. With this in mind, we sit down with the next set of Maxims, and see what wisdom history can yield.

An event is a tough thing to pull off successfully, and the difficulty increases exponentially the larger the numbers being accounted for. As a event coordinator, there are infinite variables to prepare for, and more that arise once the event is underway. Adaptability in this role is key. When it comes to preparing food for large numbers, there are likewise complications that one doesnt have when only cooking for themselves or small groups. Lastly, we hear the voices of those to whom this is a new experience, whose fresh eyes can show us a perspective that veterans may have long forgotten. Join us in our second series of Battle for the Ring interviews as Malark inspects those operating behind the scenes.
