The Art of War (Italian: Dell'arte della guerra, literally On the art of war) is a war treatise by the Italian Renaissance political philosopher and historian, Niccolò Machiavelli.Machiavelli’s Art of War takes the form of Socratic dialogue between lord Fabrizio Colonna and young Florentine nobles. Fabrizio was a real person, but the depiction of him in this book has been interpreted as a stand-in for Machiavelli himself. The dialogue explains and predicts changes in European warfare and military affairs as a consequence of larger social, economic and technological developments, advocating some particular solutions and stances, both stricly military and dealing with government more generally.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })It's the only book written by Machiavelli to be published during his lifetime.Not to be confused with Sun Tzu's The Art of War, despite the inevitable similiarities between two erudite Big Books of War that left their own, distinctive marks in history. | |

Affluent Ascetic: The army should be run without any comforts beyond bare minimum. And that's regardless of a particular soldier's social status and rank. If the officers aren't living modestly, their personal needs will not only put strain on the logistics, but also affect morale, since the common soldiers will envy and despise them. | |

Anti-Cavalry: The only reason you should bother with pikemen is that they're great for stopping cavalry charges and killing any horsemen stupid enough to attack them. Just keep in mind that it's their only function. | |
