Who Needs Harmony?: An MLP Empire Quest

Reader mode
We do not run in the face of adversity. We will not yield even an inch of our great land to this bastard we shall show him why you do not mess with a Griffins home. Here and now.
 
[x] Blow the Charges and Bury Them!

Well, let's see if the rocks can take them out. The knights can help hold the line.

If we run now in hopes to get ready it won't work.
He probably underestimated us and won't do that again, next time he will prepare better .

We have our knights, most Elite units ready as well, we can end this now .

We have 600 knights, 3000 if you stretch it to include squires and men-at-arms. There are fifteen thousand elite infantry waiting for us. We're not going to win this on the strength of our elites.
 
Guys we have a three knightly order, our Elite vs his Elite , we can end this now and stop further bloodshed.
I'm pretty sure that he won't give us a chance like this again and will stuck us in war that will last for year's.
 
So now are people going to to vote for a retreat? This is just the thing I was hoping to avoid. We have lost a lot of our troops and have lost everything that gave us an edge. We need to get to the city and set up new traps and defenses.
 
After some thought, if our knights are fresh, I'd rather face Sombra's elites when they're half-buried.

[X] Blow the Charges and Bury Them!: The light at the end of the tunnel is visible. Wait until the enemy column is in the avalanche zone and trigger the explosives. Then, send your Knights and soldiers forward to finish off this threat and end this nightmare.
 
Not to mention it gives us a chance against sombra. Retreating now means we give him initiative, time to recover, and stay fresh. Conversly he should be at his weakest after having to tank an avalanche.

Why in Griffins name should we do that. We have an avalanche right now to bury his elites this is what must happen now we have fought to hard and to long to retreat now. We have the biggest advantage we can hope for right here right now. A narrow pass and an avalanche to bury them in it.

    [x] Blow the Charges and Run!
    [X] Blow the Charges and Run!: You've destroyed the majority of the enemy force, but your forces are bloodied, exhausted and running low on ammo. And the worst of the enemy assault has yet to come. Blow the charges and have the Knights cover the retreat back to Lanner. You'll finish the enemy off when your forces are well rested and better supplied.

They're not fresh, we put them among the line I believe.

Also we still have NOBODY TO FIGHT AGAINST SOMBRA HIMSELF OR THE ELDRITCH THINGS.

Retreat, re-arm, pray he decides to fall back to prepare something nasty and give us a shot at another turn of new goodies.

[X] bait them in!
Sombra has been underestimating us the whole time. Lets abuse that. Start pulling back to bait him into rushing forward, then blow the charges and move in.

No we put veteran soldiers at the front, they are different than our knights.

Not to mention that we still have our veteran soldiers as well and other forces.

All of that and avalanche.

These are his magically enhanced troops. I have no doubt that we can win here. The problem is that it will cost us far too much in blood and treasure. This isn't about glory or even winning. It is about not crippling ourselves in a vainglorious attempt at a heroic victory. The only thing we have is the few Knights around. They were only a match for the last group of elites and these elites are much stronger, larger, and even if we bury them will still likely outnumber our own.

they have still more then 80% of their forces? Excellent.
How about we have the yaks charge them down after blowing the charges? crush them against the rocks and if that doesn´t work finish them with our knightly orders (they are fresh after all) and the rest of our army.

The Knights stayed back as reserves they've yet to fight. We spread the veterans of the normal army throughout the line to hold moral. And honestly I doubt were ever gonna get a magic person who can beat sombra out best bet is to try here and now because I don't see a better chance to try coming any time soon.
 
Again, we could kill half his soldiers in the avalanche, and he'd still have ten times as many elites as we have knights. I don't know why people are expecting them to be some major gamechanger on their own.
 
So it looks like standing our ground was absolutely the right call against his abominations. It allowed us to concentrate our war engines against them, and with they way they fought they would have slaughtered compact formations on the ramparts if they reached them (which they would have).

Now is the time to retreat because I doubt we can leverage our siege weapons in the collapsed pass with any particular effectiveness.
