Not realty. Caemlyn is huge by the standards of the time but realistically it's tiny darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 01/01/2011 06:05:06 AM
Send a quick message to Talmanes and the Kin saying "go with location 14" and they are all set. This seems very straight forward.


Caemlyn is a big city. They would need to organise a lot of pre-determined locations to have any sort of coverage, which would be determined by how far Talmanes was prepared to lead the gholam. I would guess the he wouldn't try for more than 100 metres/yards. How many places would they need to give that sort of coverage across the city? If it is 1km across, then 100 locations. 10km, then 10,000 locations. Too many.

Yes, RJ confirmed that Shadowspawn can't survive gateways. *NM* Lord Haart - 24/12/2010 07:39:02 PM 465 Views
And then BS confirmed that gholam are "more perfected" Shadowspawn which can. *NM* moratcorlm - 24/12/2010 08:35:34 PM 467 Views
Read the post I responded too. I know that. Lord Haart - 26/12/2010 11:58:40 AM 951 Views
Why would them not being able to survive a gateway be a problem? DREWRULESWOT! - 26/01/2011 05:36:09 AM 784 Views

They prepared a place, and it just happened to be within walking distance of the attack? rAndy aL - 25/12/2010 09:44:34 AM 867 Views
Please re-read the chapter. It expalins a lot. Skeeve the Great - 25/12/2010 04:05:50 PM 936 Views
Your quote shows what happened. rAndy aL - 26/12/2010 05:33:44 AM 849 Views
Likely picked from a handful of pre-determined locations based on where and when the attack occurred darius_sedai - 31/12/2010 08:47:20 PM 921 Views
Perhaps, but I don't think so. ˥ɐ ʎpu∀ɹ - 01/01/2011 01:19:12 AM 747 Views

The sizes I proposed are not huge (well, they would be by standards in the middle ages but not now) ˥ɐ ʎpu∀ɹ - 04/01/2011 06:37:50 AM 726 Views
I believe Caemlyn is less than 300k people .... That's what .05% the size of London? darius_sedai - 30/01/2011 06:02:50 PM 764 Views
You aren't seriously comparing modern population densities to medieval ones, are you? *NM* Ghavrel - 30/01/2011 09:23:57 PM 442 Views
Of course not darius_sedai - 30/01/2011 09:30:47 PM 806 Views
That would be an error if it hadn't been Skimming (the platform and what not) they were using. Chas - 25/12/2010 02:29:39 AM 831 Views
It is an error because they opened a skimming gateway to the house (from the skimming place) rAndy aL - 25/12/2010 09:47:08 AM 825 Views

I'm confused now as to what you're arguing. They knew the location of the house. Chas - 26/12/2010 08:54:17 PM 809 Views
You need to know more than just where you are going rAndy aL - 27/12/2010 06:59:21 AM 839 Views
Please find me a supporting quote in one of the books. Chas - 27/12/2010 12:48:45 PM 849 Views

Well, from Encyclopaedia WOT, and aCoS rAndy aL - 28/12/2010 01:02:42 AM 932 Views
I stand corrected. Though I will say that the uses in the books don't match the definition. Chas - 28/12/2010 02:17:43 PM 889 Views
Not that hard if you think about it darius_sedai - 30/01/2011 09:39:34 PM 878 Views
