| Article Title :: Friction Favors the Defense Because An Attack Takes Time |
| |
| One of the reasons the defensive form of warfare is so strong is the difficulty of launching a surprise attack.“In theory,” says Clausewitz, “surprise promises a great deal. In practice, it generally strikes fast by the friction of the whole machine.”In theory, the 1916 battle of the Somme was going to be a surprise attack. But after moving a million men into position and waiting a week for the artillery to do its job, the Allies were left with little surprise.The larger the operation, the less the surprise. A small company might be able to surprise a big company with a new product. But Ford is unlikely to pull any fast ones on General Motors. The friction of (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Be Prepared to Strike Back |

| Article Title :: The Mathematics of a Firefight |
| |
| When you examine the mathematics of a firefight, it’s easy to see why the big company usually wins. Let’s say that the Red squad with nine soldiers meets a Blue squad with six. Red has a 50 percent numerical superiority over the Blue. 9 versus 6. Or it could be 90 versus 60 or 9000 versus 6000. It makes no difference what the number are, the principle is the same.Let’s also say that, on the average, one out of every three shots will inflict a casualty.After the first volley, the situation will have changed drastically. Instead of a 9 to 6 advantage, Red would have a 7 to 3 advantage. From a 50 percent superiority in force to a more than 100 percent superiority.T (read full article) |
