	In keeping with Shrike's specialized army theme, but with a very different take on implementation more in line with the current trait system. There are two main paths: ~~New Model Army or~~ General's Staff. Each has a different emphasis. One is more commanding a (perhaps more than one?) polity and the other focuses on a high tech army with its own organization and resources, with a concurrent loss of influence. A WWI state versus a roving extranational WWII army/airships/fleet, in essence. Magic is of course present as an extra, more general series of traits for Rafaelans and some Mikaelans.
