time travel

(v.)To proceed in a theoretically linear path towards and backwards to or between the beginning and end of time. Although an enchanting fantasy for many, there are lots of errors and preventions that are part of time travel. I, for instance, believe it may be possible but too dangerous to do. If we do only have a single universal timeline, time travel would have resounding effects and we would only become meaningless "events" in any change caused to it. Bah, enough sci-talk, the point is: it's the action of moving thru time.

I constructed a time portal in which upon entering today, I time travelled to last Monday and saw myself eating a slice o' pizza. (Unfortunately, I was trapped in a catch-22; how can I escape back to my time without upsetting it?)

attacking backwards

Nowadays, used to comically describe a retreat in online battle games.
However, in the past, many different forces such as the Mongol Horde, Napoleon's Grande Armee, Rommel's Afrikan Corps, Darius' Immortal Spada and so on...used this tactic to draw out enemy forces, discourage them from chase while escaping from enemy strength, divert attention away from other attacks moving forwards and/or to simply remaneuver around the battlefield.

Confederate cavalry under Colonel J.E.B. Stuart retreated to escape the clutches of Captain Carter's (Union)regiment and to allow berth for Stonewall Jackson's advance in the Battle of 1st Manassas.

Agent 47

The main character in the assassination-themed Hitman video game series. An unmistakably enigmatic contract killer, he says little, yet is capable of a lot. Gone through many fatal situations, Agent 47 is often thought of as an end-all figure or angel of death. Dressed up in his black suit and red tie, (as well as also being recognizably bald), he sustains a clean elegance and is revered for his fiber wire skills, weapon marksmanship and high payouts at the termination of his targets. Did I mention he once disarmed a nuclear bomb?

Sneaking up behind the guard, Agent 47 readied his anaesthetic and struck with lightning speed. Taking the uniform off the sleeping guard and hiding the body, Agent 47 continued his mission with a temporary deception to further gain access to his target.
