Fields of War
 |
The study of terrain is an essential part of the art of war. In History's countless battles¸ the commander who best understood the characteristics of the battlefield has held the advantage over his enemies. Armies of superior strength and ability lost in the field of battle simply because their leader didn't understand the tactical implications of the battleground laid before him.
