There was only, like, one round of melee! I should have lined up in FRONT!

But really, 53k vs 11k? Wow.

Well its not like Taselak were left many options in terms of re-enforcing.

Only people in the front lost units. That's what you get for not following the line settings!

Anyway, it was a very quick battle. It was so quick Toren's fort didn't take much damage :o

One could argue that was a strategic mistake by Sandalak, handing a future enemy lvl 5 walls that need little maintenance.

It will make our inevitable victory that much more satisfying!

Anyway, I don't really understand why so many people think Toren stronghold is such a horrible location. it will be great for Ikalak. Too bad they don't really have the nobles to hold on both fronts. How the Tassels spread out after their realm dies will really affect the future course of the war.

People need to learn to listen to orders. Leaders giving out orders more than 1 time but still got people forget to follow, change accordingly. Sometimes this can cause a few surprises in battles especially closely fought ones.

What to do? Deal is a deal, if you catch my drift.

The general consensus right now is to join Sandalak just to get revenge on Ikalak, despite the long bruiser match that we had in the beginning of the war.

Had we been more restrained in our assault, the damage would have been far greater. Then again Ikalak has no shortage of gold, so in the long run it probably does not matter.

As a member of Sandalak I regularly protest in the realm against this course of action. We are more or less allying with infidels against infidels. Fanaticism clearly dictates all infidels must burn. Let's attack Ikalak!

Yes, but it is fun watching infidels burn each other.

HAH. The realm that wins will be the one that can get the most Taselakians to join it. I'm pretty blind to a lot of stuff, but Ikalak seems pretty craptastic when it comes to battles and "threatening" messages.
Taselak is Best-elak.

Xavax, to be taken all day erry' day.

Lets just hope the Tassels looking to be on the winning side again won't all join Sandalak leading to a roflstomp

Actually I wouldn't mind this, just to get to an island reset.

I'm not quite sure how Ikakak still thinks it has a chance now. I can't imagine the Sandals are going to let them have Taselak City, which is their only hope of lasting longer than a month after Taselak is gone. And if they do not have the city, they will likely not have very many defectors (except Aeneas maybe :p). The rest will join Sandalak or disappear.

So we are looking at a scenario where Sandalak has two cities and close to 100 nobles, and Ikalak has a city, Toren, and maybe 50 nobles.

At least it'll be somewhat gratifying to turbo-crush the Ikkies :)
