I fully agree with the fear thingy. Every Overlord's roleplay or letter is an attempt to intimidate and if you combine that with the often masking of his army strength, he is being very effective with his agenda. Fear is a weapon and he uses it
very well.
I am of the opinion that recent human victories in the north and south weakened him a bit, but he still has a massive strategic advantage since the north and south are disconnected. Humans really need a breakthrough on how to TO blighted regions (which I
assume is possible). Unless some progress is made there I doubt we can keep up. But who knows.
And of course...I would like also like to say that I am having a blast in this invasion. I just recently read all those first reports how the invasion began, and the atmosphere created is amazing. I play a character that is exiled from his homeland to battle for his life in Beluaterra. He has a personal agenda to reclaim Fwuvoghor and is simultaneously in charge of one of the largest human war machine on BT. That is Riombara of course, which , btw, became extremely vibrant and alive ever since Marche became the new High Chancellor.
I don't really care what happens to BT - although it would be nice to survive, i guess, even if just to get the reward for all the effort made into surviving. But for me the thrill is not in the destination, but in the journey.
