Re: But the Seanchan have an advantage the Perrin did not... Night Walker Send a noteboard - 07/06/2010 06:55:59 PM
I don't think it would take days. If we say 3 seconds per man thats 20 per minute. That means in an hour you could move 1200 men for one Damane. If you up that to 5 seconds a man that is still 720 men an hour. If you have 100 Damane they could easily move a force of 200000 men in under 3 hours at 3 seconds a man. Plus if we assume that the Seanchan have 300-400 Damane that can make usable gateways, if they conslidated their force of Damane who could make Gateways the Seanchan could move 200000 men in under an hour with little effort to the Damane.

Also Grady and Neald estimation is based on how tired they are, fresh Damane could move much quicker.

I have this feeling that Elaida is going to surprise us, and Demandred is in Caemlyn... fionwe1987 - 06/06/2010 08:33:16 PM 1129 Views
Meh. I think Elaida will end up like other women in the series who sucked darius_sedai - 06/06/2010 10:56:47 PM 1030 Views
While Traveling is certainly a tactical advantage, I think the Seanchan won't be able to use it. DREWRULESWOT! - 06/06/2010 11:15:56 PM 921 Views

yes, but the cost may prove too high to allocate so many resources against Traveling darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 09:44:16 PM 865 Views
