One of my favourite websites is Schlock Mercenaries.
They refer to a book, the seven habits of successful pirates.

The Seven Habits of Successful Pirates
Pillage, then burn.
Like many things in life, prioritising is important
A Sergeant in motion outranks a Lieutenant who doesn't know what's going on.
An ordnance technician at a dead run outranks everybody.
Close air support covereth a multitude of sins.
Close air support and friendly fire should be easier to tell apart.
If violence wasn’t your last resort, you failed to resort to enough of it.
Everything is air-droppable at least once.
A soft answer turneth away wrath. Once wrath is looking the other way, shoot it in the head.
Do unto others.
Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Take his fish away and tell him he's lucky just to be alive, and he'll figure out how to catch another one for you to take tomorrow.
Don't be afraid to be the first to resort to violence.
The enemy of my enemy is my enemy's enemy. No more. No less.
A little trust goes a long way. The less you use, the further you'll go.
That which does not kill you has made a tactical error.

There is no 'overkill.' There is only 'open fire' and 'I need to reload.
