Unpredictable Strategy

A clever and logical spirit is able to predict most of human strategies. Humans are beasts of analogies and referal points. You just have to observe and then, follow the patern. There is however a way to remain unpredictable: you have to introduce a random mechanism in your decision process. For example, revert to lotterie some of your decisions as of to which way the next attack will take place.

The introduction of a little chaos in your global strategy will not only ensure a surpise effect. It also has the quality of keeping your logical process secret. No body is able to predict a random move dicted by a dice or any other lotterie. This behavior is counterintuitive. But can pay unnexpected rewards. But of course, during wars or important market shares acquisitions fiew generals reverts to the caprice of randomness on the choice of the next move. They think that their intelligence is enough. But a swing of dice once in a while is one of the best way to worry your opponent. He will feel left behing by a logic mechanism that he cannot understand. Disconnected and disoriented, he will start to react by fear or over defensively. Even to the extend of foregetting his first strategy line of conduct to a lesser dominant strategy such as trying to protect himslef from your next blow, not knowing where it is going to come from.

He will become predictable to you.
