[QUOTE="Olgar Shiverstone, post: 3793011, member: 5868"] My respect for Dave Noonan just went up a couple of notches based on his comment "Robert Leonhard would be proud ..." in his latest blog. That's some pretty heavy reading on his list. Though Sun Tzu is pretty common reading these days (heck, it's now made the first episode of Survivor), Leonhard is a name that only comes up in truly hardcore military reading lists, along with other maneuverists like the original Bill Lind, John Boyd, Robert Hooker, Hart, Guderian, Musashi, and free thinkers like Doug MacGregor .... Funny how you suddenly think a guy is smarter just because he's reading the same books that are on your own bookshelf. Any other interesting books on your reading list, Dave? And care to go into some depth about how you are applying the tenets of maneuver warfare to 4E D&D? Kind of hard to apply OODA loops in a turn-based game, but maybe with per-encounter power recharge ... ;) [/QUOTE]
