NOW NEW! SPARTANAT Red Book 2 - Compendium of Tactics

This is how war goes. These are the basics of combat, concise and to the point. War is in the news every day. But what do soldiers do when it gets serious? What elements - terrain, weapons, and effects - determine their actions? How does an attack unfold? What constitutes success, and how do fighters take advantage of it? What does reconnaissance do? And what must defense be capable of?

The "Brevier der Taktik" by Swiss General Hans Frick is a compact book for understanding the craft of warfare.

In 1943, the author attempted to describe combat techniques as concisely and functionally as possible. The result is this introduction to tactics. It helps understand how combat is conducted on the modern battlefield. Not only does the war in Ukraine demonstrate how relevant Frick's "Brevier der Taktik" still is today.

SPARTANAT has provided the classic with a current introduction: Kaj-Gunnar Sievert explains the content historically and contextualizes it for the reader. Furthermore, there is also an introduction by Christian Väth "What is Tactics" and a reading list of further literature.

"Brevier der Taktik" by Hans Frick, SPARTANAT Red Book 2, pocket-sized paperback, 132 pages, Euro 14.90
