Eastern Warfare FORUM
Anymore Eastern titles (Other than those on Japan)
gainward20000
Hi, I'd just like to ask Osprey if there were anymore Eastern titles coming out on topics other than Japanese military history? There are huge gaps in the military history of ancient and medieval Korean armies. There are aboslutely no warrior titles on any chinese troops. There also happens to be a massive gap in ancient, medieval and premodern southeast asian troops-Like the Vietnamese dynastic (900s-1700s), Cham, Khmer and Burmese armies.
Considering Osprey's leadership in the field, are any titles due?

Sorry for the extra post but a really good title to have is also that of chinese fortifications. All the eastern fortress titles covered so far are on Japan. Chinese walled cities saw plenty of action in innumerable wars. Their design was sophisticated to say the least. We caught a glimpse of this in an earlier title. Siege weapons of the far east. The development of these walled cities covered in a separate book.
Korean fortitfications other than those built by the Japanese deserve some treatment as well

All good points, but to be fair there is a Fortress title on the Great Wall of China.

There is a Fortress title on Chinese Walled Cities proposed for publication in May next year.
