Great Discussion on the 36 stratagems. I'm a fan of ancient war strategies as well. I've recently started a blog analyzing the application of the 36 stratagems in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms setting.

I'll also be looking at the application of "The Way of the General" by Zhuge Liang next week.
There are also some posts of Financial Intelligence and Value Investing (Warren Buffett)

Do drop by if you are interested.

Why do I feel that the 36 strategy is more 36 tactic or 36 way to lie than 36 strategy? I have read it several time, and I admit that this "tactic" can be used by civilian like me in my civilian life. But call it strategy is not 100% true.

Often they are referred to as stratagems, which I think best describes them.
"I do my duty: other things trouble me not; for they are either things without life, or things without reason, or things that have rambled and know not the way." - Marcus Aurelius
