If anyone has examples of C# common code re-use that they would liketo share, or more techniques that can be implemented in a NinjaScript cs file, please chime in!

Just put all your generic strategy code in a class derived from the strategy class:

Code

public class PengiBase : Strategy

Then make individual strategies that inherit from this new base class. Since your base class inherits from the Strategy class, they are also Strategy objects and can call all the Strategy methods like Print() etc.

Code

public class PengiES : PengiBase

If you have methods that are small and multi-purpose, you can put them in the UserDefinedMethods indicator/strategy and have access to them in each respective namespace without having a bunch of other files with static classes everywhere.

I have a mixture of utility procs in the user defined methods (I created my own - udm) and just used the namespace strategy and partial class strategy. I also have a load of extra classes that do bigger jobs, and I do indeed pass in the strategy to each one so I can use all the strategy methods.
