Modern urban combat is not fought on a flat map. It is fought across streets, basements, tunnels, stairwells, rooftops, windows, courtyards, rubble, and the contested airspace immediately above the fight.

Streets, Sewers, and Skylines is a tactical manual for that fight. Written as the companion volume to The Four-Floor War,...
