I could not find a mirror for this topic.

The battle is now in Coere right? With a cavalry forces going north into Taliern and beyond ?

The battle was at the pass of Barisen, with a small Boer force besieged in Coere.

Quite a display of martial might. Something like 80+ units in the Avan and allied army (including those detached)

Less than half is Avanil units so the Prince is probably real happy now.

And the army has a legendary unit of Avanil knights!

Perhaps it's impressive on paper... but I still need to see the damage from the meat-grinder of a hill, before I am happy :P

Yeah, I think we might be looking a little "Ragged" round the edges at the very least after that mess...

Ouch... 6 units brought to the fight, 1 Elite and 2 Veteran now gone, and another veteran broken. I think it safe to say that Medoere took the brunt of that fight, with Endier as a runner up.  :-\

Weeeell at the least it'll reduce my upkeep.  :-*

Seeing as it was the Endier units and Enlien that won the day it should not be surprising that the heaviest losses were there...also look at the knights of Diemed and Avanil...poor men, didn't know what ogres hit them :)

And what were you expecting? Attacking uphill inf vs. inf with relatively equal numbers and capabilities. Tactical options beyond push and kill were very limited...

I am not happy about sending Exhausted troops in the first line... but I'm hoping that the other side has the same problem :P

Yes praying would be most needed as you have no cavalry in reserve and Boer's flag is not visible  :P

Some proper prayers (aka Heal Army) would sort out the problem.  8)
