| The Classical
Maneuvers of Warfare |
| By: X17 Source:
Military History Course |
Intro: These maneuvers where created in the
"classical" time period, the times of great military
commanders such as Alexander the Great and Caesar. During this
period men fought with pikes, swords, and javelins. Though
technology of warfare has evolved the maneuvers have not. Still
today these maneuvers are are used in modern combat. Both at army
strength and squad strength. And they are even effective in
airsoft. Many of you have commanded your team in airsoft using
these tactics and not even knowing it, mainly the Envelopment of
Both Flanks which you will read about later. If you like to assume
command in your airsoft skirmishes try some of these out, you will
be surprised of they're effectiveness when deployed and done
correctly.

| The objective
of this maneuver is covertly position your reserve unit or other
unit on the single exposed flank of the enemy. Forcing him
to fight two fronts. B represents a barrier, this barrier
can be anything, a lake, a cliff, a river. What ever the
barrier is it should be able to limit maneuverability of the
closes flank. R stands for Reserve. The reserve is the units
one army has set aside to use at areas of the battle field
when needed. X stands for units. These units may be phalanxes
when speaking of ancient military or companies of soldiers
when speaking of modern warfare.

Phase One: The attacking team
(red) will do what is known as a faint attack. Their front
lines will attack, make contact with the opposing force
(blue), and then stage a retreat. The retreat is completely controlled.
This is where the element of surprise comes in at phase two.

Phase Two: After witnessing its
opponent fleeing from the battle field the blue force will
commit it's reserves to action to help assist it's already committed
troops. When this happens, the faint attacking force will
turn from fleeing and hold again. This new holding pattern
gives time for the red reserves to swing around to the
exposed flank. It will then turn and "role down the
flank" forcing the blue force to fight two fronts which
will cripple the blue force and allow red to receive
victory. |
