fandom, I finally published the second and third installments of "Lucky Horseshoes," the unheroic exploits of Norne in the War of Heroes.
Most of my in-depth knowledge of the day to day workings of an army comes from the American Civil War, which of course postdates the "medieval fantasy" setting by a couple of centuries, but at this point I really don't care, especially with regards to FE12. It's not like people behaved any better in wartime just because they were living under the feudal system. If FE12 posits an army consisting of "platoons," we're already talking a post-17th century way of doing business. So, yeah.

Went to the Old Car Festival at the Henry Ford today with the intention of checking out the replica of the "world's first self-propelled vehicle" they had on-site. Basically, it's a steam-powered dray for military use. It was cool; they had coal in the boiler and steam coming out, even though it wasn't mobile when I visited. Gave me ideas for the "tanks" Grust will use in the Steampunk Archanea story.
