So far we have seen the Shadow use numbers in their attemp to overwhelm the forces of the Light. It took one of the Great Generals with the help of 100 Ashaman to withstand one onslaught in the borderland, and that was followed by a much larger second wave that Rand wiped out.

The forces of the Light have vast armies with well over a thousand channelers. Do you think millions of trollocs are enough to win the war for the shadow or are we going to see the Great generals of the Dark?

The Draghkar attack shows that there is at least one brilliant mind for the Shadow out there.


I think you forget the fact that the Dark has channelers of its own. I estimate that one in three female channelers are Darkfriends, if the Tower Purge percentage holds to be universal. Couple that with the fact that the vast majority of full Asha'man are Darkfriends/possessed (as seen by the Epilogue in [edit* KoD], and the Black Tower chapters in ToM), and that means a sizable amount of Dreadlords to help the Trollocs on their merry way.

I'm not saying that Dreadlord numbers will help win The Last Battle, but just that it won't only be Trollocs and other Shadowspawn. Personally, I'd like to see the tactical uses for Worms.
"Courage to strengthen, fire to blind, music to dazzle iron to bind."

Finally, Moiraine is free to rain down her fiery majesty on all those who would oppose the Light.

I think you are vastly overestimating the number of women dark friends - 24/11/2010 02:26:13 PM 670 Views
