Iron Fic 14--Just as Planned
Nothing is better than a plan that comes off without a hitch.?
Even when things are FUBAR'd though, the plan may still be carried out.? If a rival takes advantage of the situation, clever planners work them into their plans (or, did from the start!)
This topic is about successful plans.? Note that this does not mean "perfect" plans--a plan might be carried out successfully, and ruin the planner (manpower, resources, etc.).? And of course, there's always the need to be careful of getting what you want.
Lastly, last-minute one-upmanship is fine.? The main character being out-gambitted is a perfectly acceptable outcome--and, after all, one man's failure is another's success.
