AWA156 - How "useful" are the accounts of warfare as described in the Old Testament?

Jasper tackles this question from patron of the podcast Ken. How "useful" are the accounts of warfare as described in the Old Testament? I'm interested in a discussion about sources as much as anything (i.e. why were they written, to whom and which biases might have been present).

Are any of the Old Testament accounts helpful in triangulating sources?
