Single most important development is Philip II of Macedon developing the sarissa and the deep phalanx formation to use it. That style of warfare, along with a good cavalry arm, is what enabled Greeks and Greek culture to take over the entire East.

Besides that it's hard to find many decisive "moments" where warfare changed forever thanks to one man's brilliance. For example, Adrianople is often exaggerated as the "birth of heavy cavalry" but both the Romans and barbarians had been making steadily greater use of armored cavalry arms for a century and a half beforehand. In general, gradual change was the norm and famous battles just serve as exemplars rather than change agents in and of themselves.

That said, Marius reforming the organization and recruitment system of the Roman legions had serious political effects that undermined the republic.

Bro, do you know anything about warfare in Eastern Hemisphere or is your scholarship Eurocentric?

my HS had the "classical" curriculum and therefore focused almost exclusively on Western history. I got 800s on all my SAT IIs except World History (which was dumb to even attempt), got like a 630, had to guess on virtually every Chinese dynasty question ljl
