Terrorism warfare is the term used for a weapon centric method of warfare involving the limited or extensive use of unannounced attacks on civilian and/or military targets designed to inflict maximum casualties through the use of guerilla and/or suicide forces.

Historically considered a tactic of guerilla warfare and frequently used as a label for all unconventional and small force actions (including assassinations), this much narrower definition rightfully classes terrorism in a much narrower context both as a weapon and a method of war.

As has been clearly demonstrated in the global age of news and information networks, one terrorist act in an urban centre can have a ripple effect across the world in minutes with devastating effect. In addition, the perpetrators of such acts may or may not belong to a coherent guerilla organisation, or may simply be individuals acting on their own volition.
