Wait is the question greatest of all time or greatest of the 20th century? You use both terms in the OP.
That kinda changes the perspective a bit.
All Time
1) the atlatl first true long range weapon also pretty darn useful for hunting but if a human enemy has no missile weapon and you do
well you win.
2) Cavalry using animals more mobility and as a battering ram pure genius. Mobility is key you can run down retreating enemies that thins out the numbers. Even take land before your enemy can really muster a defense.
