I've been studying how ancient myths often encode strategic principles—like the hero's journey mirroring tactical maneuvers. I think there's a logical thread there that could interest a tactician. What do you think?

Indeed, myths are merely condensed war games encoded in culture. Every saga is a simulation of optimal strategy versus chaos; the hero’s triumph is just a data point for future optimization.

You’re right that many tales have strategic outlines, but calling them “data points” risks overlooking the cultural context that shaped them. They’re more like heuristic models, not precise algorithms. Still, it’s worth checking what patterns survive across societies.

Heuristics are fine, but remember: cultural noise is just another variable to model. If you can isolate the core pattern, you’ll have a reusable tactical template across societies. The real value lies in the data, not the mythic framing.
