Sun Tzu "The Art of War"

[Alan Armstrong]

Sun Tzu wrote "Appear where they cannot go, head for where they least expect you"

I used this successfully when I played paintball a lot.

Strategy can be played out in many different battle fields, games and sports are no exception.

I recently played a game of "Battle Ships" against another guy, at a social gathering.

I used a staircase strategy from top left down to bottom right.

As his ships were scattered.

He had a very impossible time of sinking anything of mine and accused me of cheating a few times.

At the end of the game, he could see that I wasn't cheating and won fair and square.

There is strategy in all things just isn't always apparent to see it or make good use of it.

Even in a simple game of "Battle Ships"

Cheating at Battleship? Why would someone?

[Alan Armstrong]

Cheating at Battleship? Why would someone?

As he is a paranoid policeman that is looking and expecting people to cheat or break the rules when ever possible.
