Description and lore
An army or fleet gathers willing forces, equipment and routes around a regional objective.
The force is made of real people and vessels. A marching column and a prepared flotilla solve different problems even when serving the same campaign.
The party can lead the decisive undertaking while the wider force provides reach and support. Supply, access and the chosen objective give that scale a concrete presence.
