Ishamael's destroyed Civilization twice Rurouni_Kenshin Send a noteboard - 02/10/2009 04:25:37 AM
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."


And it isn't exactly peaches and cream in the Westlands right now. What more do you want from the man?
When the Wolf King carries the hammer, thus are the final days known. When the fox marries the raven, and the trumpets of battle are blown.

No. - 01/10/2009 07:41:35 PM 1226 Views
Or RJ just loves stacking ridiculously unfavourable odds against the male Forsaken generals... - 01/10/2009 08:40:47 PM 1290 Views
Lol... too true - 01/10/2009 09:32:29 PM 1195 Views
And you guys whine about the lameness of RJ's villains? - 01/10/2009 09:41:54 PM 1283 Views
I still haven't seen proof of Demandred or Ishamael's "brilliance". - 01/10/2009 09:56:41 PM 1009 Views

Gah! Hate! - 02/10/2009 04:11:49 PM 960 Views
Ah, come on... - 02/10/2009 04:41:37 PM 942 Views
No no, I was just being pouty that I haven't read the new stuff yet. - 02/10/2009 05:01:15 PM 941 Views
Yeah, I can understand that! - 03/10/2009 12:23:25 PM 783 Views

Good points! Also, these "generals" haven't actually fielded any troops - 01/10/2009 11:23:40 PM 929 Views
Further... - 02/10/2009 12:14:44 AM 950 Views
But as individuals they are meant to be deadly too - 02/10/2009 05:09:21 AM 897 Views
Just one point ^_^ - 03/10/2009 12:51:50 AM 931 Views

Tylee Kirgan, Birgitte, and one other, Egeanin - 01/10/2009 09:47:00 PM 1352 Views
Birgitte's not a soldier though. - 01/10/2009 10:10:50 PM 938 Views
She says she's not, but so does Mat. - 01/10/2009 10:34:04 PM 849 Views
Mat's not a soldier, either - he's a general - 01/10/2009 10:51:29 PM 976 Views
Right, which was what we were discussing at first. - 02/10/2009 04:13:43 PM 913 Views
Yeah, I'm supporting your point about them both being generals - 02/10/2009 06:10:31 PM 980 Views
true, but she does pretty good - 02/10/2009 01:06:03 AM 986 Views
Oooh I forgot she's in charge of Elayne's lady guards. - 02/10/2009 03:22:57 AM 864 Views
Egeanin or Leilwin - 01/10/2009 10:35:53 PM 1101 Views

Right. - 02/10/2009 01:36:59 AM 915 Views
Well said. (And its short and to the point.) - 02/10/2009 03:54:23 AM 1047 Views
Birgitte is too cautious to be better than an adequate tactician. - 02/10/2009 04:22:45 AM 988 Views
Isn't this more of an outgrowth or her respective specialty? - 07/10/2009 08:40:46 PM 892 Views
My opinion - 02/10/2009 01:30:12 AM 1434 Views
That's a poor excuse - 02/10/2009 11:59:42 AM 877 Views
That's a poor argument - 02/10/2009 04:02:53 PM 1168 Views
Re: That's a poor argument - 03/10/2009 04:26:55 AM 983 Views

I always know I've out-argued an idiot when they fall back on the tired old "RJ wanted it that way" - 06/10/2009 04:42:11 AM 1044 Views
