My TG2 skill level is somewhat fragmented, but I believe that armed conflict is in my more experienced toolkit. When you wish to place primitive combatants in a believable scenario function, the truth in action lies somewhere between an actionable formal geometry of fighter/fighters and a total chaos of forces that will be swirling about or fleeing from that foci of organised mayhem who know quite well that they will ultimately prevail. Unorganised groups of wannabe "warriors" in the beginning of battle will be in reality be boys and mill about like sheep, and those men who are entering into their slaughter will hold formations practiced individually or in concert and be picking/prioritising their closer targets. At a certain point in the killing and confusion of the lesser force the sheep will break and flee, and the organized killer/group will wheel and follow to finish off the confused remnents. Battle in the historical pastense was rarely a static play with "equals" pitted in sportsmanlike contests on level playing fields as I see in Hane's scene. The dominant human pitbulls are generally very obviously superior and early on show the signs of a calm eagerness for the blood of those who tremble befor the living storm of their destruction. It would be very difficult if not impossible to graphically recreate an accurate portrayal of say Thermopylae because the phalanx as then practiced was such a fluid force of connected fighters and was absolutely and totally unlike the movie battle scenes recently illustrated in that titled "300" farce. If the Spartans had fought like that silly movie portrayed and the Individuals warriors left their formation to engage in individual little conflicts totally seperated from their phalanx then they would have been easily killed by massive squads of Persian swordsmen and archers. The Phalanx in reality was practiced like a dance or chorase line to change shape amorphously and surround or envelope large groups of enemies who knew only straight ranks and diagonal pincer movements/sweeps on the flanks of their formation called the horns. The Spartan phalanx was more like a viral advance into and around elements of a cell with sections organised and pre programed to feel for weakness and flow around and kick ass on the more vulnerable sections of those straight ranks they fought while holding firm and fast onto any side sweeping segments of their Persian enemy, esentially holding the "bull" by the nose while cutting of his nuts.
