Well, yeah. They're knowledgable and deadly in person. Generalship doesn't come into it. beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 04/10/2009 12:09:50 AM
I'm just saying that, whatever their troop-leading abilities are, they haven't been making use of them... at all. Rahvin didn't use Andor's troops for anything, other than maybe a bit of harrying Cairhein's borders. Did Sammael use Illian's troops at all? I forget.


No one else has done anything "general-y." They're pretty shrewd, politically, and of course can easily slaughter hundreds of people in one breath, but that's not what we're talking about.
I amuse myself.

Good points! Also, these "generals" haven't actually fielded any troops beetnemesis - 01/10/2009 11:23:40 PM 603 Views
