Summary

In this episode of the Ancient Warfare Podcast we are discussing unconventional tactics, a topic suggested by one of our listeners (but Jasper can't remember who, so thank you whoever you are!).

We have a full house of contributors, Jasper Oorthuys, Murray Dahm, Lindsay Powell, Mark McCaffery, Myke Cole and Marc DeSantis.

We may have gone a little off topic, heading down the route of special forces, so possibly not as much talk of flying pigs as we might have otherwise have anticipated.

0:51.6	So if anyone else has topics to suggest or questions indeed, don't forget to send
0:55.7	them in. So we're looking at unconventional and unusual tactics. So I mean, how do we define,
1:02.9	how do we define unconventional or unusual tactics.
1:11.1	So we want to kick off because I think we probably all have come at this with a slightly
