    Honestly, I've heard worse pronunciations of "paradigm." You did well enough to get a C+ on that front, while I still consider the rest of your story-reading to be a solid A+.

      Not really. Their tactics are just dumb. Having a big wall does not allow for a bigger force to use its greater firepower effectively. The only mitigation is the long range of their weapons.
      The better tactic would have been to separate into the five sub formations and then shift to intercept one or two of the enemy's smaller sub formations with the entire force. However, the fight is essentially over since the enemy has double the acceleration of the league ships and will be able to stay behind the league ships unless they assume some sort of big ugly ball formation like an armadillo rolling up. Even then, the long range of the Weaponry will work against them as the Predator ships will be able to fire across the big ugly ball formation into the engines of League ships on the opposite side of the ball. the author has set this fight up to be impossible for the league but did not hide that from the start. The question will be how the humans will overcome the overly aggressive tactics of the Predators.

      Their tactics are exactly phalanxes. A large group of heavily armored craft with all armor and weapons facing forward in a compact square shaped formation that allows for little movement except forwards and backwards. The battles are relatively moderate and ceremonial, like most inter-city state warfare was in ancient times.

    Certain battle formations are explained,very interesting . It is well known with a predeter when hunting ,trys to tirer the prey,Then attack bit by bit and bring it down,but this is a single prey method But in attacking a large herd it is very different cuting out the weak and bring it down.Slowely the herd is thinned ,one by one they go down if they keep going the herd is desemated.

    There are those who seek glory and fame. Some only seek to bring joy. Their troubles are unknown. They burden themselves for the betterment of others. Selfless is not a trait that is easy to find. It is hidden.
