Good war/military themed adventure / module / campaign

Hi all. I'm looking for war-oriented 5E material to plug into my existing campaign. Any encounters, short adventures, or even short campaigns involving military type encounters (scouting armies, strategic missions, defending a keep, etc.) would be of interest. Does anyone have anything they'd recommend?
Hoard of the dragon queen starts with a siege that I liked. People don't just sit inside the castle in a siege, they go out to do raids, rescue people etc;)

Anyone else have any suggestions?

Most would just require more/bigger monsters, but there are some that would need some more work.

War of the Burning Sky &nbsp;is an entire adventure path themed around what war looks like in a world with magic. <a href="https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/publisher/230/ancris-it" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/publisher/230/ancris-it</a> The Mad King's Banquet , the fourth adventure is for characters level 7-8. In it, the heroes go to a nearby nation for an alliance. Rebuffed by the king, they quickly realize that things are not right and work with one of the dukes to prove that espionage is afoot. In this adventure, the heroes: Work through the politics of court, both out in the open and behind the scenes Race against time to sabotage a coming army Assassinate or capture enemy commanders Hold the line in a ground battle Participate in jousting and games of skill And reveal plots without and within the kingdom to acquire the aid they need There are suggestions on how to adapt the adventure to your own setting, and each encounter is designed for 4 PCs and has guidance on how to adapt the encounter for larger or smaller groups (or groups of a different level). <a href="https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/bundle/3843" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/bundle/3843</a>
