Outmanoeuvre Your Enemy

A plan with branches let you outmanoeuvre your enemy because your responses to changing circumstances are faster and more rational. You cannot be mobile if you put yourself in cramped spaces or tie yourself down to positions that do not allow you to move. Consider the ability to move and keeping open more options than your enemy has as more important than holding territories or possessions. Create maximum disorder, your enemy depends on being able to read you,. The goal of your manoeuvres should be to make that impossible.
