Desperate Stratagem: When all else fails, fight to the death

This Skill Bit talks about the stratagem “When all else fails, fight to the death”, which is a last-resort tactic, advocating for fighting until the end when all other options are exhausted. It reflects a “last stand” mentality, where one is prepared to face overwhelming odds and certain defeat to uphold principles or goals. However, this approach should be cautiously considered, as it signifies extreme desperation. Retreat, surrender, or seeking peaceful resolutions are often preferable, with fighting to the death reserved for dire, unavoidable circumstances.
