FORTRESSES ARE TAKEN BY SIEGE NOT BY ASSAULT

I am absolutely certain that with a few dozen people, I could bring any of the secondary cities to heel. The mistake is in taking on the major cities. It’s unnecessary and purely symbolic. ISIS didnt take damascus first. That would be foolish.

I dn’t want to take washington or new york. You don’t go for the quick headshot. Those are symbolic. But if you take secondary cities one after the other, the momentum is easier to create.

All fortresses are taken by siege, not by assault.
