    I'm reading The World Online, and some of the things that I liked the most were the "plot twists" in the battles. I mean, you can guess who's going to win in the end, but I like the process of the war.

    But I hope there are other novels with better war plot, because TWO is a world building novel, and It focus is on the explanations about the territory.

    And I would love to read some of these novels. If there is any complete, better. If there are ancient characters or not, doesnt matter. Anything with an army, a smart general (MC or not) and a strategic war os good.

    Could you guys help me find some? Thank you very much

    If you haven't read it yet, I suggest Rakuin no Monshou. The battles and troop movements between the countries are a major focus of the series and very well written.

    The translation is not up to the major battles yet but they are coming soon :
    https://www.novelupdates.com/series/the-human-emperor/

    If you can get past all the characters being named after Chelsea footballers and the author using their first names as surnames then:

    You could also try https://www.novelupdates.com/series/the-lords-empire/ as it is similar to TWO.

    I remember there was an original (gender bender) novel on the site that translate Only Sense Online (kryktik something or w/e the site's called) where the author included pictures/illustrations of formations and stuff. That could maybe be something but idk

    I was trying to answer each one of you guys with Quote, but my cellphone dont let me...

    I was reading Step in The Past. I really hope Its good bc know I'm coming back to it... Hahaha
    Release that Witch I made a deal with my friend I would only read when its finished the translation and everything T.T

    I watch the anime Kingdom. Its the same in the manga? Fantástic. And yeah, I love anything with battles + brains. I'm easy.

    About the others, I'm reading or tried to read most of them. Except the ones the Reaper posted.

    Thanks you all <3

    For another one that's written in English, A Hero's War is sort of similar to Release that Witch in that the MC is technologically revolutionizing a fantasy world (though he doesn't become a king or anything - or want to).

    It's been slow updates for a while, but still a pretty good novel with POVs of wars every now and then.
