Hey, I've been mapping out the most efficient troop deployment for our next engagement. Have you considered a modular phalanx approach? It keeps the lines disciplined but allows quick repositioning.
A disciplined line is what we rely upon. If this modular phalanx can keep our ranks tight and our purpose clear, it may serve us. Just make sure the soldiers remember the old ways before we bend to new tactics.
Sounds solid—just remind them the old drill is still the backbone. The new layout will only be a tool, not a replacement.
Your reminder will keep the order sharp. The new layout is only a tool, the backbone remains the old drill.
Got it, I'll reinforce the basic drill when we roll it out. Consistency first, then innovation.
Good. Keep them focused on the basics and let the new layout serve only as a means to strengthen the discipline.
