What's the era of warfare you're most interested in? Define interest however you'd like; reading, watching documentaries/movies, war gaming, etc.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

That would line up well with Line infantry wouldn't it?

While all eras overlap with each other at the edges I'd say that the Industrial would roughly cover 1870-1990.

Speaking of warfare, I don't remember Mehmed II's invasion of Wallachia turning out quite like this. :unsure:
