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 1008 Views
Agreed, only Sammael, Rhavin and Be'lal really laid claim to nations - 15/12/2009 07:12:17 PM 728 Views
to confirm you - 15/12/2009 10:47:22 PM 754 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 765 Views
As said, controlling Murandy plus chaos by the Dragonsworn in 6 Westland nations. *NM* - 15/12/2009 03:11:25 PM 335 Views
well no, arad doman and tarabon were not his.... *NM* - 15/12/2009 03:57:27 PM 371 Views
Umm.., care to elaborate? *NM* - 15/12/2009 04:10:15 PM 334 Views
I was pretty sure that the Dragonsworn as a fighting force were destroyed. - 15/12/2009 04:07:38 PM 707 Views
But the Dragonsworn caused much chaos everywhere they were through the series... - 15/12/2009 04:28:42 PM 677 Views
But that's not the Shadow's aim. - 15/12/2009 06:32:38 PM 745 Views
I have always said that Demandred is loosely based on Hannibal Barca... - 15/12/2009 04:29:22 PM 781 Views
Those a pretty flimsy conformities, IMO... - 15/12/2009 04:53:04 PM 725 Views
Of course.. - 15/12/2009 05:06:04 PM 731 Views

well, it's not like the Forsaken have been particularly impressive thus far - 16/12/2009 06:51:38 PM 685 Views
It's about the impact of action. Timing. - 15/12/2009 10:53:03 PM 691 Views
Why does Demandred say: "We" will be ready? Why not "I" will be ready? - 15/12/2009 04:06:42 PM 891 Views
Well... - 15/12/2009 04:22:57 PM 748 Views

It is insignificant. - 15/12/2009 10:49:20 PM 686 Views
It's importance lies in it's strategic location. - 16/12/2009 04:46:20 AM 696 Views
I think some Murandians might mention Trollocs gathering there. - 16/12/2009 07:05:29 AM 711 Views
what if they're wearing dresses and lady masks? *NM* - 16/12/2009 09:10:57 AM 328 Views
Do the ladies in Murandy wear masks? I don't recall. - 16/12/2009 09:24:46 AM 697 Views
masks to look like ladies *NM* - 16/12/2009 04:11:07 PM 341 Views

Ah, right that order is certainly out of character with Demandred. *NM* - 17/12/2009 06:40:32 PM 296 Views
