A) Takara - A Brief History: An overview of the history of the Altrichs vam Takara, from its heavily contentious time of origin to its current status as a Great Power of the Infinite Sea.
B) Trade and Commerce: A description of the major trade rout...

Hello $2 Patrons!
Now that The Welles Report has finally wrapped up, it's time for you to decide where The Soldier's Guide to the Infinite Sea wants to go next.
Last month, I asked the $10 backers what they wanted to see in January's installment. I've taken their suggestions and put them up for vote. All are viable options for next month's installment - assuming they get the most votes in the comments below:
A) Takara - A Brief History: An overview of the history o...

5: Suggestions for the Amelioration of the Army's Condition
Let it not be forgotten by the reader that the main purpose of this report is not to offer an observation of the Battle of Blogia, but to use that analysis to examine the shortcomings and lapses which lead to the defeat of His Tierran Majesty's forces on that day.

NOTE: Here it comes - my very first piece of patron-funded world-building, the introduction to the famous Welles Report, the after-action report on the climactic battle of Blogia which not only set in motion some rather drastic changes within the Tierran Army, but also catapulted Eleanora, Countess of Welles, to a position on King Miguel's staff, where she appears in Guns of Infinity.
This first section is only the introduction, and it is a bit short. Those parts that follow ...

We're off to a pretty steady start. I mean, I'm not going to exactly be buying a new house any time soon (especially with Greater Vancouver real estate prices), but it's enough to set this thing into motion.
