Maneuver warfare

Maneuver warfare is a way of fighting which uses movement and speed to gain an advantage over an enemy. Instead of two armies meeting in a big battle, the army using maneuver warfare tries to use quick, clever moves to outsmart their enemies. For example, an army could sneak around their enemies or use clever tactics to make their enemies think they're coming from one direction while they actually come from another. This way, they can surprise any enemies that might be in their way and can more easily win the battle.
