Marlborough's Line

Marlborough's Line refers to a strategic military method used during the early 18th century, particularly by British General John Churchill, the Duke of Marlborough. It emphasizes the use of well-organized infantry formations to create a strong defense against enemy formations. The idea is to maintain a steady line of troops that can effectively respond to attacks and control the battlefield. This strategic approach was notable during the War of the Spanish Succession, showcasing the importance of discipline, coordination, and maintaining strong, continuous front lines in warfare.
