Hapans are Stupid (Or how to shamelessly exploit the conceptual, design and tactical flaws of the Hapan Battle Dragon) was an essay written by Alvis Preston following his defeat of a force of Hapan Battle Dragons. The essay was a detailed plan of how to defeat a Hapan force through use of superior tactics and exploiting the numerous flaws in Hapan starship design and operations. It was considered to be the definitive treatise on the subject matter. The essay was banned inside the Hapes Consortium as "subversive literature".
