The Three Arms

When we look at the field, whether in our games or in history, we can see three distinct elements that make up the whole. The long range element, the staying power, and the mobile forces all have roles to play, and those roles relate to each other in complicated ways. The ratio of these three elements changes the tactics that can be employed effectively. Artillery heavy armies conduct war in a much different fashion to cavalry. While infantry can be specially trained to fill one of the other roles, they are better done by those suited to them. Turkeyfeathers joins us to look into the three arms, and how to fill the specialty roles.
