But this has been going on since at least aCoS darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 16/12/2009 12:07:08 AM
Hmm, Murandy seems very similar to the German states of the Middle Ages, not all that important or strong when seperate, but once Kaiser Wilhelm and Otto Von Bismark consolidated them into one nation, they ended up being pretty powerful. (which is an understatement)


Powerful enough to sweep all the way north past the Mountains of Mist and drive a wedge between the Borderland armies and their lands near the Blight Border?

I don't know if there is enough time left to have a sudden onslaught come from that direction that would not be contained by the surrounding countries - we're dealing with a few months where as far as outsiders are concerned, Murandy is still somewhat of a disunited mess. I don't really see any central authority springing up that soon.


Roederan hired the Band to help him consolidate power

But it's still a small country Sidious - 15/12/2009 03:06:24 PM 686 Views
Again, Murandy might be a bit smaller Etzel - 15/12/2009 03:10:11 PM 713 Views

The Dragonsworn made chaos in half of the Westlands. Etzel - 15/12/2009 04:55:00 PM 920 Views
Agreed, only Sammael, Rhavin and Be'lal really laid claim to nations darius_sedai - 15/12/2009 07:12:17 PM 659 Views
to confirm you amirebram - 15/12/2009 10:47:22 PM 672 Views
I'm just not convinced that this would be a coup major enough to earn Demandred DO Kudos. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/12/2009 03:06:54 PM 682 Views
As said, controlling Murandy plus chaos by the Dragonsworn in 6 Westland nations. *NM* Etzel - 15/12/2009 03:11:25 PM 297 Views
well no, arad doman and tarabon were not his.... *NM* mazza3 - 15/12/2009 03:57:27 PM 321 Views
Umm.., care to elaborate? *NM* Etzel - 15/12/2009 04:10:15 PM 287 Views
I was pretty sure that the Dragonsworn as a fighting force were destroyed. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/12/2009 04:07:38 PM 620 Views
But the Dragonsworn caused much chaos everywhere they were through the series... Etzel - 15/12/2009 04:28:42 PM 597 Views
But that's not the Shadow's aim. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/12/2009 06:32:38 PM 662 Views
What if the only way to free the DO involves the world lacking the order necessary to contain him? darius_sedai - 15/12/2009 11:59:47 PM 610 Views
I have always said that Demandred is loosely based on Hannibal Barca... Shannow - 15/12/2009 04:29:22 PM 698 Views
Those a pretty flimsy conformities, IMO... Etzel - 15/12/2009 04:53:04 PM 647 Views
Of course.. Shannow - 15/12/2009 05:06:04 PM 652 Views
The Seanchan have elephants too ... S'redit I think they call them darius_sedai - 16/12/2009 12:04:40 AM 717 Views
Yes, but with so many Trollocs who needs vast armies of men? darius_sedai - 15/12/2009 07:15:08 PM 623 Views

well, it's not like the Forsaken have been particularly impressive thus far darius_sedai - 16/12/2009 06:51:38 PM 606 Views
It's about the impact of action. Timing. amirebram - 15/12/2009 10:53:03 PM 615 Views
Why does Demandred say: "We" will be ready? Why not "I" will be ready? Shannow - 15/12/2009 04:06:42 PM 804 Views
Well... Etzel - 15/12/2009 04:22:57 PM 671 Views

It is insignificant. Fanatic-Templar - 15/12/2009 10:49:20 PM 606 Views
It's importance lies in it's strategic location. Rurouni_Kenshin - 16/12/2009 04:46:20 AM 612 Views
I think some Murandians might mention Trollocs gathering there. Fanatic-Templar - 16/12/2009 07:05:29 AM 626 Views
what if they're wearing dresses and lady masks? *NM* Deadsy - 16/12/2009 09:10:57 AM 281 Views
Do the ladies in Murandy wear masks? I don't recall. Fanatic-Templar - 16/12/2009 09:24:46 AM 615 Views
masks to look like ladies *NM* Deadsy - 16/12/2009 04:11:07 PM 296 Views
Note to self: Avoid the Murandian ladies... *NM* BlackAdder - 16/12/2009 05:06:04 PM 297 Views
Moridin is gathering the Trollocs in the Blight, as we learn in TGS! Etzel - 16/12/2009 12:13:38 PM 612 Views
A Murandian army is insignificant. Fanatic-Templar - 16/12/2009 07:59:54 PM 600 Views
For example, the Great Captain Bryne doesn't agree with you... Etzel - 16/12/2009 08:25:19 PM 611 Views
Maybe he's based in an alternate universe? BlackAdder - 16/12/2009 09:26:53 PM 604 Views
He doesn't? Fanatic-Templar - 16/12/2009 11:37:34 PM 559 Views
Like the supposed unimportance of Murandy, it's a typical misunderstanding... Etzel - 17/12/2009 11:56:16 AM 686 Views
Re: A Murandian army is insignificant. Sidious - 16/12/2009 08:27:28 PM 626 Views
Surely you jest. Fanatic-Templar - 16/12/2009 11:39:23 PM 522 Views
Re: Surely you jest. Sidious - 17/12/2009 06:35:57 AM 582 Views
Well that depends. Fanatic-Templar - 17/12/2009 08:33:12 PM 598 Views
As said, it's additional chaos and strife. Etzel - 16/12/2009 12:01:05 PM 1004 Views
Its illogical to assume that Westlanders... Heiko - 16/12/2009 12:25:08 AM 615 Views
But that is exactly... Etzel - 16/12/2009 11:53:11 AM 622 Views
I agree mostly. It's a common RJ theme Deadsy - 16/12/2009 07:42:39 AM 647 Views
Honestly, at this point BlackAdder - 16/12/2009 09:07:35 AM 622 Views
In my view... Etzel - 16/12/2009 12:10:20 PM 587 Views

Kisman's pov shows Demandred has been involved in the BT Light in the Night - 17/12/2009 06:01:49 AM 726 Views
I think... Etzel - 17/12/2009 12:07:05 PM 572 Views
You're right Light in the Night - 17/12/2009 12:33:35 PM 619 Views
Interesting. BlackAdder - 17/12/2009 05:41:20 PM 563 Views
Aran'gar playing Demandred... Etzel - 17/12/2009 06:23:23 PM 615 Views
Ah, right that order is certainly out of character with Demandred. *NM* BlackAdder - 17/12/2009 06:40:32 PM 251 Views
