 __TOC__
 On the whole, persons ''without'' military discipline act as 'skirmishers,' open order formations that harass an enemy but are not essentially defensive in their arrangement. Military discipline is intended as a study that changes the way that combatants operate with each other, in tandem, rather than giving benefits to specific fighting abilities.
