Methods of war have to be chosen between maneuver and attrition warfare. The latter focuses on achieving victory through the slow exhaustion of personnel or material; maneuver warfare advocates the use of intense and aggressive violence to suddenly overwhelm the enemy, either to seize their position, damage their morale, or carry out an attack before they can properly counter. Historically, maneuver warfare was stressed by small militaries, the more cohesive, better trained, or more technologically advanced than attrition warfare counterparts.
