Can you name the works you'd collected? That's a killer lineup, I'm a huge fan of Walter Jon Willams and have enjoyed what Watts I've read.

It was intended as a sort of military SF anothology, with the word "military" also encompassing revolution, insurgency, and various other 4GW concepts. The stories spanned the period from roughly 1980-2020, with many published from 2010-2020. The list was:

A Dry, Quiet War by Tony Daniel
ZeroS by Peter Watts
A Soldier of the City by David Moles
The Beast Adjoins by Ted Kosmatka
Lady Be Good by Jack Campbell
Mid-Death by Alan Dean Foster
Weaponized Math by Jonathan Brazee
Prayers on the Wind by Walter Jon Williams
Highwaymen by Ken MacLeod
Second Skin by Paul McAuley
The Dread And Fear of Kings by Richard Paul Russo
Herbig-Haro by Harry Turtledove
The Lost Dorsai by Gordon Dickson
Cincinnatus by Joel Rosenberg
The Proud Foot of the Conqueror by Reginald Bretnor

It's the stories lower on the list that were unobtainable. Dickson, Rosenberg, and Bretnor being dead (may they all rest in peace,) did not help matters.
