[quote=@TJByrum] [@skwint]: I suggest choosing a force you feel comfortable playing. [@babbysama]: Alaric will not be sending the full force of the Empire at you; he will be deploying small armies similar in size to your own. He moved swiftly to occupy the Maw, and brought only an auxiliary force - that's who you'll be fighting first. Reinforcements are own the way, and the Imperials can field a variety of troops pulled from many races and former nations. Every battle will bring new opponents and they will grow in difficulty. Like I said in the interest check, you'll [i]remain [/i]in the pass for as long as Alaric [i]wants [/i]you to remain in the pass. There's a method to his strategy. [/quote] Ahhhh, alright, that makes sense, I think I missed that bit. I'm excited to get started then!
