Nah, im pretty sure blindsiding someone from behind has been a trait of a coward since the stone ages. Less than a couple hundred years ago our armies marched head on in straight lines, as this was the honorable thing to do. Only the United States and its Apache training changed this. Now its called "tactics" I guess..
I only play dust514ums now. It was always more fun than the actual game anyways.

Lol not butthurt at all, just telling it like it was.

Now its called "tactics" I guess.. I assure you, if an army had the chance to flank and mow down their opponents from behind or from the side, they damn well did it. There hasn't been any real honor or chivalry on the battlefield since the days of knights and chivalry, and those days are long gone.
Umm war of 1812? Revolutionary wars? Pretty sure we had rifles by that point and still marched in straight lines at each other..

Lol not butthurt at all, just telling it like it was. The fact that you brought it up and labeled it as cowardice is a powerful confirmation to all of us that you are butthurt about it. Have a nice day. 
Edit: I think YOU are the one who is butthurt, being labeled as a coward.

His point is that no one uses this tactic anymore. Point me to one nation today that still -- to this day -- sends its troops into another country in a phalanx formation to invade. Even during the American Revolutionary War the tactic of blindsiding your enemy and guerrilla warfare was already being employed in some cases. Nowadays, catching your enemy by surprise is a routine tactic. Most nations would laugh at you for still using Phalanx formations outside of a marching band.
If you READ my first post (instead of being butthurt about the coward comment,) I said the United States and its Apache training changed this (during the revolutionary war.)

Do you even know your history? How do you think the US won the revolution? It saw lines of soldiers marching in groups and lines under ridiculous battle tactics, and went gorilla warfare on them. They ambushed and flanked and set traps. They didn't fight head to head. Napoleonic tactics were not about honor but about marching people to their deaths and overwhelming the enemy. The reason Cavalry was so important back then was so infantry on horseback could out maneuver large masses of marching men and cut them down from the sides and back. During Gettysburg, the Confederates tried everything they could to flank Little Round Top and take it because of its strategic advantage and NOT wanting to take it head on if they could help it (the reason that Pickett's Charge was a massive failure and huge mistake, was because it was a head on charge).
Did ANYONE read my first post? Or even my last? 
I'm starting to doubt the reading comprehension of this community...

Actually, I was responding to Crimson's OP, in which he stated that attacking from behind was not a cowardice act, when 90% or more of human history dictates otherwise. It had nothing to do with the minjas role. Actual "ninjas" had the same role, but you would be hard pressed to find anywhere in our history that they were honorable. Effective, but hardly honorable..
