I still haven't seen proof of Demandred or Ishamael's "brilliance". RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 01/10/2009 09:56:41 PM
Demandred and Moridin almost exclude themselves because of the low IQ of this military blunder.


Moridin, if you recall, got himself beaten by LTT/Rand multiple times. Demandred doesn't seem to have done noticeably better - we don't have tales of any grand defeats handed by him to LTT and I assume it's because he would have lost a direct engagement. It's a little hard for me to consider any of the Forsaken brilliant at this point. Oh well.

To paraphrase that Shania Twain song - "So you wrote some books? That don't impress me much."
"Those who think they have no time for bodily exercise will sooner or later have to find time for illness."

Good points! Also, these "generals" haven't actually fielded any troops - 01/10/2009 11:23:40 PM 771 Views

Tylee Kirgan, Birgitte, and one other, Egeanin - 01/10/2009 09:47:00 PM 1198 Views
Birgitte's not a soldier though. - 01/10/2009 10:10:50 PM 785 Views
She says she's not, but so does Mat. - 01/10/2009 10:34:04 PM 695 Views
Mat's not a soldier, either - he's a general - 01/10/2009 10:51:29 PM 842 Views
Right, which was what we were discussing at first. - 02/10/2009 04:13:43 PM 774 Views
Yeah, I'm supporting your point about them both being generals - 02/10/2009 06:10:31 PM 792 Views
true, but she does pretty good - 02/10/2009 01:06:03 AM 836 Views
Oooh I forgot she's in charge of Elayne's lady guards. - 02/10/2009 03:22:57 AM 718 Views

Well said. (And its short and to the point.) - 02/10/2009 03:54:23 AM 900 Views
Birgitte is too cautious to be better than an adequate tactician. - 02/10/2009 04:22:45 AM 812 Views
Isn't this more of an outgrowth or her respective specialty? - 07/10/2009 08:40:46 PM 746 Views
