====Intervention in Caergwynn====
Operation Titan Star (seizure of straights from Caergwyn?)


=Early War=
====Operation Grenfeld====
- push into central western Fiannria and southern cutoff area


- quickly roll southern region back into fold, establish provincial gov't
(late-war large push in center, ground to halt)


- advance into central valley stagnates with spring '30 rains
Lost Corps Campaign (lone Fiannrian corps trapped and besieged for over two years)


- slow advance until 1931, then stalemate with mostly mountain wars as neither side wants to escalate trench warfare (Fhainn for ideology, Fiannrians for needing time and not wanting to escalate civilian casualties/reprisals without HLE support)
====Haibne Campaign/Haibne Landings====
Battles of Bah Lannan


- air strikes and artillery trump infantry and machine guns, excepting specialized mountaineer units, quickly escalated to an airship/aeroplane race
====Caergwynn Declares War====
 
Mhuirthead Campaign
- Vandarch dominated even by weakened Fhainn fleet, Fiannrians dominate outer sea and push slightly into Fhainnaeran on northern border coast by 1932
 
- war basically inactive/minimal heavy combat 1932-1935 sans buildup and air/sea battles
 
==1935==
 
=Middle War=
- HLE support comes in, major Fiannrian offensive pushes Fhainn back to secondary position in center, Fhainn push back in north and reignite heavy air/sea combat in the ocean and along the island-smattered coast


- more conventional trench war (still mostly playing chicken) in summers and autumn, both sides effectively don't campaign too hard in winter or early spring
====Second Treaty of Gaoth====


- air war tilting away from airships, tanks becoming more common and 'duelling' with each other, old cavalry units, and smaller motorcycle units/dragoons in lieu of infantry charges
==Aftermath==


====Human Cost and Treatment of Civilians and Prisoners====
- any non-Fiannrian units (not seen by Fhainn as 'brothers under a different flag) that come in get a proper war instead of the almost gentlemanly fighting taking place between the land forces and repeatedly get hammered, which does start up the most bloody Fhainn-Fiannrian violence as the Fiannrians back up their foreign volunteers/allied units

War Order 1928-14: Fhainnin military order instructing high standards for following honorable rules of war and instating heavy punishments for '... butchering, brutalizing, robbing, abusing, or unduly aggressing against the citizenry of Fiannria; or for executing or maiming surrendering Fiannrian soldiery who have not spent the greater portion of their ammunition; or for inciting or compelling other soldiers to commit gross violations of existing military law.'
War Order 1928-14: Fhainnin military order instructing high standards for following honorable rules of war and instating heavy punishments for '... butchering, brutalizing, robbing, abusing, or unduly aggressing against the citizenry of Fiannria; or for executing or maiming surrendering Fiannrian soldiery who have not spent the greater portion of their ammunition; or for inciting or compelling other soldiers to commit gross violations of existing military law.'


The Fhainnin navy of the republican era focused on the production of battlecruisers, favoring a strategy of holding the [[Vandarch Sea]] and using fast warships to contest foreign dominance over the wider world oceans.
====Political Upheavals====
 
Fhainnin design teams tend to focus on speed over and accurate long range alpha strike ability over staying power, focus on kiting and ambush tactics
 
Fhainnin navy entering the GW: 2 battleships, 1 prototype carrier 16 battlecruisers, 43 cruisers, 68 frigates/destroyers, 2 submarines
 
Fainnin air force entering the GW: 1 soft airship, 5 rigid airships (one of which was biplane carrier prototype), 400 various planes
 
fhainnin navy leaving the GW: 1 battleship, 12 battlecruisers, 1 carrier, 4 light carriers, 28 cruisers, 49 frigates
 
Fhainnin air force leaving the GW: 16 rigid airships (two of which were fitted as light plane carriers, and four others with light armor and artillery mounts), 1,200 various planes
 
Great War Entry Fleet (1929): 2 Battleships 7 Battlecruisers 1 Carrier (light) 30 Heavy Cruisers 0 Light Cruisers 62 Destroyers 12 Submarines 18 Airships
 
Great War Final Fleet: 2 Battleships 6 Battlecruisers 1 fleet carrier 3 light carriers 31 Heavy Cruisers 3 Light Cruisers 59 Destroyers 27 Submarines 14


Carrier airships scrapped postwar as tech makes biplanes useless by then, 3 other battlecruisers given to Fiannria to help repay war debt
