      In summer (edit: spring actually) thawing turns everything into mud. Wars there were always waged in summer and mechanized warfare with modern logistics also make winter more possible.

        true, although does the mud last for the entirety of the spring? (also you typed summer instead of spring 😅 )

          Late spring is when war season starts, traditionally it was around may iirc, also due to every army there being based on a lot of horses which needed to graze.

        The first book of Sienkiewicz's trilogy suddenly makes a lot more sense.
