Of course, a Pentan would *never* think of another Pentan as enemy... 'Counting coup' is probably appropriate, too: non-fatal "killings".

"Tarsh War" (a freeform book from the Reaching Moon Megacorp) includes descriptions of Tarshite troop types and tactics, plus illustrations, lots of details on how the Lunar army works (or doesn't), etc.
