Know what might help, both as a writing aid and to share with the audience? A map.
7629275 Perhaps I could crack out my l33t Ms paint skills and knock out a layout of Prance... I'll think about it.
7629275 Okay, I gave it a go... and failed miserably. It was either too complex or too simple. Too simple lacked the detail to convey what I'm getting at, but too complex just looked like a mess that hurt the eyes. Even more so when I tried to add indicators of how the battle went. Then the scale of the map kills me. Maybe if I had some A2 or A1 sized paper so I could draw a full scale diagram of the city on I could give it a proper go, but I don't. I know what it looks like, but once again my descriptive writing is jerking off in the corner somewhere when I could really use its help to describe it to you guys. I'll have to put some thought into this. Or gloss over it entirely as it only really matters for a couple of chapters.
7629497 The problem might be trying to show too much at once. Just the base city layout would probably be fine for readers to piece together an account of the battle. If you want to show the progress of the battle itself, consider a series of maps for key moments in the battle, with the various units represented by icons. The series of maps from this article about the Battle of Austerlitz should give you an idea of how to proceed. Don't give up, you'll figure something out!
7629528 Instead now I'm being defeated by fimfic not wanting to load my images, instead giving me little black boxes with x's in them. I'll try again with the next chapter, but for now I fucking quit, because I'm going to bust a blood vessel if I keep trying. So much rage.
