About this Episode

Every precious second lost to deliberation in battle is a second too long. All warfare, whether in games or real life, depends on quick decisive action to carry the day. But when so much information is constantly flowing and changing all around the battlefield, how does a commander filter out the non-essential and focus on pursuing that which matters most? When so much is at stake and the blood-price is high, how does one quiet the noise of one's mind in order to know the correct course of action? To understand how we do this, we must understand the concept of Coup D'Oeil, or "a glance that takes in a comprehensive view". To master this concept, we must combine detailed knowledge of the country with the will to pursue the essential.
