First Post and Introduction to the Blog

Greetings and welcome,

My name is Shogun 144 and this is my blog, Tactica Guerilla: Irregular Warfare. I am a freelance writer and Christian Homeschool graduate. Some of you may know me from my work on Wildfire Games' freeware RTS 0 AD.

As you can probably guess the main aim of this blog is going to be covering irregular military forces throughout history. I am not going to comment on current examples of these kinds of forces and their wars, such as the current American efforts in Afghanistan and Iraq for example. This blog is first and foremost a history blog, as I love history and wish to write about it.

I will also try to keep out any politics from my postings. I am interested in the truth, not political spin. This may upset some people when the facts contradict said political spin but bear with me. You will be better informed for it.

I accept any valid (that is constructive) criticism on my future postings since I am interested in improving my own knowledge of historical events. I also wish to beg my reader's indulgence right here at the beginning in case I should swerve off my stated topic in order to post about something else like Ancient Greece, the Dark Ages, and Feudal Japan.

On how often I intend to post and keep this blog updated, it will be on a weekly basis if at all possible. This is my first blog so I am going to be experimenting. I ask my readers to bear with me as I figure this out.

Now I will close this introduction with a dedication:

I dedicate this blog to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, without Him my talent and love for writing would not exist. I also dedicate this blog to my parents, whose support, patience, and love has helped me immensely along my path in life.
