The blog also has an awesome series about different battles in Lord of the Rings and their historical accuracy/plausibility in regards to general warfare, logistics, etc.
I think I found those via HN too.
- DylanSp 4y agoThose series are also really enjoyable, especially because they're not just about picking on implausible aspects of LotR; those posts are also about introducing a lot of different military concepts (premodern army logistics, analyzing decisionmaking at tactical/operational/strategic layers, various different types of military organization and how they can tie into civilian social structures), using LotR as an example.
