Talk:Marketing warfare strategies

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Learning from Napolean

This section is factually wrong, e.g the smaller Greek unit was not the cohort but the lochos, and they were not all arms combined arms units. If anything it is the pre-Marian reform Roman legion which is the all arms force.see Combined_arms#Ancient_warfare. However the Legion could be all arms because there were 5000 of them not 100. And a cohort was not 100 but something more like 480 or 6 centuries ,and a century was not a 100 men unit but 80.

However I have refrained from editing this article, because the writers of this article may be acurately quoting from a source book or group who rather than try and get the facts right, has opted for big (but wrong) comparisons between military history and marketing. If this is true, given the number of fellow military geeks on wikipedia, I suggest that someone put a lock on this article, and make it clear that you know that these facts are wrong, but that was what it was those espousing marketing war strategies that got the facts wrong, and provide the references of those sources.Koonan the almost civilised 10:41, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
