I think they've been pretty effective Sidious Send a noteboard - 19/03/2012 10:46:11 AM
Not to say the BA has ... But I'm not speaking as much of the loss of the individual channelers (that has it's place too though) as I am of the loss of the organization. The BA had a function when it was part of the Tower and could influence the AS ... Now these women are simply a cluster of mid tier, poorly trained channelers, that offer little in value beyond being able to create mixed links.

I would agree with your assessment on FS death would be huge if they had proven to be in anyway effective.


It's important to realize that the Forsaken are individuals and not armies. Even Rand found it difficult to implement change as an all-powerful individual.

If one looks at individuals like Semirhage, Rahvin, Sammael, Asmodean, Graendal and Ishamael, they caused massive damage due to their interventions in various cultures. You can't really expect much more. The fact that they were killed by Rand is not a testament to their ineffective tactics but rather their bad luck that Rand hates them and no one can really defeat the Dragon Reborn.

I disagree on number three don't think it's broad enough darius_sedai - 17/03/2012 02:53:08 PM 711 Views
I wonder if it was advertised though? Sidious - 17/03/2012 04:25:23 PM 798 Views
I very much doubt it darius_sedai - 17/03/2012 04:48:56 PM 681 Views

It's funny because I don't think the Forsaken have proven particularly effective either darius_sedai - 17/03/2012 07:47:58 PM 731 Views
I think they've been pretty effective Sidious - 19/03/2012 10:46:11 AM 715 Views
Yet they have done very little to move the grand plan forward darius_sedai - 19/03/2012 11:51:59 PM 690 Views
What plan? Sidious - 20/03/2012 08:18:40 AM 883 Views
I disagree ... The DO seems to have a plan and Moridin showed us he is following a prophesy darius_sedai - 20/03/2012 01:05:40 PM 778 Views
Up until the very end of TGS, wasn't the plan to turn Rand/make him do the DO's job for him? IndigoAjah - 29/04/2012 07:46:04 PM 762 Views
That's what I was saying ... Or at least part of it darius_sedai - 30/04/2012 12:45:24 AM 829 Views
