just like in the big game we just won where we had to exclude any doubts, charge from the outset, and keep our game plan obscured from the opposing team, ancient civilizations had their own strategies. they commenced with pre-existing knowledge, attended a briefing of sorts by their elders, and used tactics that remained obscured to protect their societies and advancements. it feels incredible to link our victory today with the strategies used by ancients, showing that some tactics stand the test of time.
