What does strategy mean

a plan of action designed to achieve a long-term or overall aim

A course of action you plan to follow to achieve something you want to do. (I.E like setting up a strategy on how to sneak up on someone in CoD or bait someone out of cover in siege. You know someone is watching a certain doorway, so you toss a C4 or an impact nade or a smoke to bait their focus away from the door so you can move up. BOOM. you just made a plan. a "strategy.")

trade-off is not the correct answer since it is a situation in which you accept losing something in return for benefits in other areas.

and finally, consequence is a general term used to accept what it comes when you make a decision. it can be a positive or negative consequence depending if the decision you took was the correct one.
