The Citadel System

pie_citadel_system

A generation of engineers trained on the latest Italian treatises on fortification has surveyed every significant town in our domain and begun the work of converting the old circuit walls into a network of modern bastions, angled, low, and wide enough to mount artillery while denying the enemy any approach that our own guns cannot cover. We tie these citadels together by road and signal, so that a garrison threatened in one valley can expect support from the next. This Sistema delle Cittadelle transforms Piedmont into a country that cannot be overrun but must be taken fortress by fortress, a prospect that gives even the most determined aggressor pause before crossing our borders.
