I've seen that term used maybe twice, including my own post... so your complaint about people using it so much is a bit mistaken. Plus the term has a specific meaning outside of Battlemaster that is easy to understand, so there is that. Plus I'm a part of the realm, I'm seeing what they're doing so I know how good or bad their military is.
And you said that Strombran had the support of CE, which is a large chunk of the continent. You didn't specify "noble population of CE" rather than military support.
I know what the term means and I've seen it a ton, especially on FEI recently. I checked the forums and see it hasn't popped up here (that is, outside of game) as much as I thought it had. Sorry, I guess I feel people are too quick to apply it and I'm too quick to judge.
Back to the actual point, I didn't think I
had to. Silverfire was questioning peoples' opinions, not their military might. Context should've been sufficient.
