It’s the second week of the month, and that means another Patron-funded installment of A Soldier’s Guide to the Infinite Sea is now available for general viewing.

This section of the Welles Report deals with the Antari army which faced the Duke of Wulfram at Blogia. Like the previous entry, it goes into detail about the organisation, leadership and weaponry of Antari army. It also digresses into a summary of the family history of its commander, Prince Khorobirit.

Next month’s installment will begin describing the events which led to the battle proper, the preparations Wulfram made, and his reasons for choosing to stand and fight where he did.

As usual, if you’d like to get access to these updates a week early, or if you’d like to simply support my worldbuilding articles, please feel free to donate to my Patreon. We’re nearing the $150/month mark right now. If we go over it, that means next month’s update may also include some maps, or other images.

Even we don’t, I can assure you it’ll have plenty of content to look forward to.

This month’s entry for A Soldier’s Guide to the Infinite Sea is now up. This portion of the Countess of Welles’ report focuses primarily on the organisation of the Tierran Army, as well as its institutional flaws and strengths. In addition, it covers the leadership, equipment, and the experiences of the Tierran expeditionary force in the first half of the war. It’s considerably longer than the first part (which was merely an introduction), so it does get to go into a great deal of detail as well: a product of the months of worldbuilding which went into making sure that the portrayals of the King’s Army in Sabres of Infinity and Guns of Infinity were not only faithful to the limitations of pre-industrial early modern warfare, but to the society and politics of the Unified Kingdom of Tierra, and the setting as a whole.

If you want to support more of this sort of intensive worldbuilding in my future works, please feel free to donate to my Patreon. Not only do patrons get access to these articles a week in advance, they’ll also be able to input their own suggestions for future articles once my page gets off the ground.
