Stormwrath wrote:Okay, I want to develop a military doctrine based on the fact that Stormwrath has two borders: one in the south and one in the east.
The north is bordered by the Sea of Montalia, and it is where 39% of the population is located. Major seaports and harbors, including the capital, Tidal City, are located in the north. The terrain there is mostly plains, and the only thing separating the west from east is the Jarovilla River which is very wide in the north.
The west part from center of the country, particularly Floricia, has hilly terrain, and a few small mountain ranges. The central part of Stormwrath is a breadbasket for the country. It is also plains, only with a few more hills. As you move east from center, you encounter high mountain ranges, forming a buffer for the eastern border.
Moving south there is a rift separating New Tracillia from the rest of the country, but not completely. It can only be accessed by Arellano and four other states, which serve as the states you have to get through to access the central and north. New Tracillia also has mountains and many valleys, and many industries are located in this part. New Tracillia is the only state to border our neighbor to the south, which historically has a large military, based on land warfare.
Aside from that, the country needs to focus on naval and aerial dominance due to the fact that we are dependent on foreign trade and that we narrowly lost a war which involved a lot of air domination.

P.S. Also maybe look at what RL Russia has based in Arkhangelsk Oblast.

I think it's mainly air force and navy they have up there. They dropped the Tsar Bomba on one of the islands, and Severodinsk is the home to Sevmash, the Russian Navy's main shipyard.

1.I don't think you need to worry much about chemical weapons use. Chemical weapons are not really effective in combat and are really only mostly useful for committing war crimes with.
2. think what's absoulteny necessary, to maintain an empire in the modern day, is to have an effective and powerful navy capable of both force projection and of patrols throughout your national mainland. You also need some kind of paramilitary force that's capable of establishing a regular presence in your colonies, either as part of your general military or a police force.
3. You want to have a mobile defense force on the islands, armed with anti-ship missiles so they can make landings more difficult.
4. Anywhjere where there's a large flat open space you want to maintain a large force of tanks, plus of course you want to maintain (like Russia does) a small set of mountaineer units to fight in your mountains. This should be relatively small, since you don't expect to be attacked through the mountains themselves.
