Westmoor doesnt need to gain sympathy. Fontan never desired peace. Fontan used the ceasefire as an excuse to bide their time and build up their forces so they could attack Westmoor unawares. Westmoor simply beat Fontan to the punch as it were. Fontans refusal to accept any form of peace with Westmoor is well known.
That is stupid, its BM it is IMPOSSIBLE to build up forces over time with the whole damn continent being aware of it. That combined with a ceasefire that never progresses any further pretty much means Fontan was never really hoping to catch any one unawares, they were just waiting till they though they had the advantage in either military terms, diplomatic terms or both.
