    there are actually plenty of analogies/lessons from chess that one can apply to NS, particularly commanding. i'm not a terribly good chess player either, but the similarities can be quite useful.

    take for instance the axiom that you shouldn't have your knights on the edges of the board (they can't threaten as many squares that way). this can be likened to the axiom that you should, in general, not have your PGs on the edges of the map. better to have it in a nice central location, where you rines can phase to and harass multiple targets.
