Offense and Defense in Strategy

The principles of offense and defense are similar in tactics and warfare, sharing the same basic objectives. The main difference is that strategy cannot accomplish victory without the tactical successes to back it up. Strategy's take on principles such as advantage of ground and surprise have more to do with setting the stage for the most efficient tactical victory we can achieve. We also continue to explore the superiority of the defense when it comes to natural, but not always guaranteed, advantages.
