Not mentioned but somewhat related: The Mongoliad series, for which Stephenson is one of the co-authors. (It's a collective work that came out of a failed startup; it's complicated.)

You might say it arose in part out of Stephenson's interest how historical fighting might have actually worked. https://www.amazon.com/The-Mongoliad-Series-5-book-series/dp/B074C3XQ4Y https://www.amazon.com/The-Mongoliad-Series-5-book-series/dp...
