Yes, but with so many Trollocs who needs vast armies of men? darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 15/12/2009 07:15:08 PM
Rahvin and Sammael had control of vastly more powerful nations, and this did not seem to earn them any special rewards.

I don't know - if Demandred has been spending all of his time putting order to Murandy, I just don't think his time would have been as well spent as it would have been if he brought the Seanchan from across the ocean, the Ayyad from across the continent or untold legions from unknown parts of the world.



Who are just as likely to flip to the light if forced to fight next to Trollocs and Fades?

Seems like the more human armies you marshal the more you increase the odds that your enemies will have armed and trained soldiers.

I think if Demandred is working with human armies someplace, he's likely doing it to destabilize an area or at least set it up to be in a really bad spot when the real armies of the Shadow appear.

The Dragonsworn made chaos in half of the Westlands. - 15/12/2009 04:55:00 PM 725 Views
Agreed, only Sammael, Rhavin and Be'lal really laid claim to nations - 15/12/2009 07:12:17 PM 475 Views
to confirm you - 15/12/2009 10:47:22 PM 478 Views
I'm just not convinced that this would be a coup major enough to earn Demandred DO Kudos. - 15/12/2009 03:06:54 PM 480 Views
As said, controlling Murandy plus chaos by the Dragonsworn in 6 Westland nations. *NM* - 15/12/2009 03:11:25 PM 210 Views
well no, arad doman and tarabon were not his.... *NM* - 15/12/2009 03:57:27 PM 217 Views
Umm.., care to elaborate? *NM* - 15/12/2009 04:10:15 PM 208 Views
I was pretty sure that the Dragonsworn as a fighting force were destroyed. - 15/12/2009 04:07:38 PM 434 Views
But the Dragonsworn caused much chaos everywhere they were through the series... - 15/12/2009 04:28:42 PM 414 Views
But that's not the Shadow's aim. - 15/12/2009 06:32:38 PM 436 Views
I have always said that Demandred is loosely based on Hannibal Barca... - 15/12/2009 04:29:22 PM 502 Views
Those a pretty flimsy conformities, IMO... - 15/12/2009 04:53:04 PM 452 Views
Of course.. - 15/12/2009 05:06:04 PM 436 Views

well, it's not like the Forsaken have been particularly impressive thus far - 16/12/2009 06:51:38 PM 407 Views
It's about the impact of action. Timing. - 15/12/2009 10:53:03 PM 417 Views
Why does Demandred say: "We" will be ready? Why not "I" will be ready? - 15/12/2009 04:06:42 PM 576 Views
Well... - 15/12/2009 04:22:57 PM 460 Views

It is insignificant. - 15/12/2009 10:49:20 PM 419 Views
It's importance lies in it's strategic location. - 16/12/2009 04:46:20 AM 422 Views
I think some Murandians might mention Trollocs gathering there. - 16/12/2009 07:05:29 AM 446 Views
what if they're wearing dresses and lady masks? *NM* - 16/12/2009 09:10:57 AM 209 Views
Do the ladies in Murandy wear masks? I don't recall. - 16/12/2009 09:24:46 AM 432 Views
masks to look like ladies *NM* - 16/12/2009 04:11:07 PM 206 Views
Note to self: Avoid the Murandian ladies... *NM* - 16/12/2009 05:06:04 PM 217 Views

Ah, right that order is certainly out of character with Demandred. *NM* - 17/12/2009 06:40:32 PM 179 Views
