Military science is tactics elevated to the highest possible level, a level almost as sophisticated as one of the real sciences. It encompasses not only the study of modern weapons (since these are advancing at an unbelievable pace, making it a frequent occurrence a weapon a cadet studied to become obsolete right after he finishes school), but also of employing the terrain to one's advantage, using transport and logistics (and denying the enemy their use), etc. etc. And it emphasizes something the good general knows instinctively - how important organization and discipline are on the field.

abstract
| - Military science is tactics elevated to the highest possible level, a level almost as sophisticated as one of the real sciences. It encompasses not only the study of modern weapons (since these are advancing at an unbelievable pace, making it a frequent occurrence a weapon a cadet studied to become obsolete right after he finishes school), but also of employing the terrain to one's advantage, using transport and logistics (and denying the enemy their use), etc. etc. And it emphasizes something the good general knows instinctively - how important organization and discipline are on the field. This approach to warfare provides the ultimate boost to military preparation, in the face of the last military building of the Encampment - the Military Academy. It also manages to modernize mounted soldiers one last time, creating the Cavalry - a mounted squadron, combining the mobility of traditional cavalry with the hitting force of gun-armed soldiers.
