These nouns denote means for achieving an end by indirection or deviousness.

Wile suggests deceiving and entrapping a victim by playing on his or her weak points: “He did not fail to see/His uncle’s cunning wiles and treachery” William Morris.

Artifice refers to something especially contrived to create a desired effect: “Should the public forgive artifices used to avoid military service?” Godfrey Sperling.

Trick implies willful deception: “The … boys … had all sorts of tricks to prevent us from winning” W.H. Hudson.

Ruse stresses the creation of a false impression: Your pretended deafness was a ruse to enable you to learn our plans, wasn’t it?

Feint denotes a deceptive act calculated to distract attention from one’s real purpose: One person bumped into me as a feint while the other stole my wallet.

Stratagem implies carefully planned deception used to achieve an objective: The manager used ruthless stratagems to win the promotion.

Maneuver often applies to a single strategic move: “To this day they always speak of that Reform Bill as if it had been a dishonest maneuver” The Standard.

Dodge stresses shifty and ingenious deception: “‘It was all false, of course?’ ‘All, sir,’ replied Mr. Weller, ‘ … artful dodge’” Charles Dickens.
