The episode begins with a brief dive into the rules changes for 9th Edition Warhammer 40k. The changes are subtle in most cases, but definitely worth going over. We then transition into looking at the final conclusions of Frederick's book, where he specifies what opportunities present the best odds for joining battle. Of course, opportunity is nothing without having the advantages to seize them, which he also defines. Misfortune is a constant comrade in war, however, and a commander must always have contingencies in place to deal with them. In his final section, Frederick then details the best use of downtime between campaigns; advice that is useful both in the winter time and during pandemic.

Before we take our dive into "The Management of Savagery", it is important to understand the world in which this text was written. Far from the stereotypical undereducated view, the author of this authoritative Jihadist text is highly eloquent and shows an educated and dangerous mind. Although the dogma is questionable to this show, the ideas he discusses regarding asymmetrical warfare are preeminent in his field. In this episode, we have a brief history of the Arab peoples and the Islamic Golden Age to put our story in context. After that, we look into the nature of insurgency and a history of terrorism. Join us as we begin a fascinating study into a work that defines combat in our modern age.
