No,but nothing is saying even the dead skeleton dragons fighting eachother and razing the land below won't happen, and it won't come to be Sauranath's fault. He's never been to the world below, and he's in his dragon form.

I can't understand about half of that post xD

The real invading forces are against the Cimex. . . coming from a different location. . .

[LokiLeo789]

So the Cimex are currently under attack? By dragons?

The battle haven't even started yet.
:(

I can cause some trouble for Humanity if you want a balanced battle xD

Or just for the dragons.

This isn't going to be a fair battle

The Cimex have far greater numbers and are fighting a defensive war in the middle of a dense jungle. Plus their hives are like castles.

Edit: So even with a couple dragons burning stuff I think the humans are going to lose this one

@Cyclone

They don't, unless your being sarcastic, the Cimex are out numbered, the humans, Uri, dragons, whatever the North tribe guys are.

[Hael]

@Cyclone

Really? I figured it would be more even. Heavy losses on both sides, and finally some semblance of a truce.

[Cyclone]

Human pop: 9000
Uri pop: 4300 (300 in Zerabil's realm)
Mer pop: 7000
Cimex pop: 8000
Outsider pop: 90

Our established population counts

When you first look at it you'd think that the Ciemx would be outnumbered with their 8000 vs the 13,300 Uri and humans combined. But the 4000 Vestec-worshipers aren't fighting the Cimex, they're fighting the Confederates, so that's probably minus 4000 humans in addition to however many more get killed/have to fight on that front.

So now we're somewhere around 8000 Cimex vs 8500 humans and Uri, I reason.

But then you have to realize that Ialu (and probably msot of the others on the human side) isn't even going to bring half his total population. He doesn't have that many warriors. He can't support an army that big. He can't even afford to equip most of them with true weapons or armor, so half his army is just going to be skirmishers that throw stuff using the Wi. At most he could muster like 1/4 to 1/3 of his people, and that's huge. The Cimex, on the other hand, are all warriors from my understanding.

So with my reasoning the Cimex will have the advantage of terrain, defensive battles, their fortress-hives, and even numbers. There's also their crazy adaptation and hivemind shit that could prove to be a nightmare.

Of course if Ialu succeeds in conquering the Garakain Kingdom and brings their chaos dragons and stuff, this might go down better, but frankly Ialu is an idiot. His strategy is to just charge right into the jungle and burn down the trees to make way for his army. He might leave a huge trail of destruction, but in the end he'll most likely get defeated. And while this will be a nice distraction, in that time I doubt Zerabil will manage to destroy all the other hives.

How would the humans even know where the Cimex hives are, anyways?

[LokiLeo789]

Makes sense, and there are hundreds of smaller hives, I only mapped the very large on, holding thousands of Cimex. I Guess we would have to wait and see for now.

[Kho]

@Cyclone

The Uri have the ability to gain knowledge from trees. They touch a tree and voila, they know everything that has come to pass in that forest (as all trees are linked either physically or reproductively)
Moreover, the SC is going to be scouring the entire forest, undetected, and bringing back information on key locations and the best routes to advance.

You are right on the fact that the humans and Uri are far-outnumbered, but I think quality is on the Human/Uri side, and four heroes and Wi. Not going to be easy, but I'd say quality and strategy evens out the Cimex number and adaptation advantages.

[Cyclone]

Wait, the Uri have super tree-speaking powers? How did I miss that?

[Hael]

@Cyclone

You missed it because you weren't listening to the trees, man. If you just stopped and, like, listened to the forest every once in a while you would know all these things.

Oh, but, @LokiLeo789- just how detailed is this power? If I said something quietly, and three years later a Uri shows up and touches the tree, will he know what I said?

How could you say that just as Orabil got torched?! You insensitive fool! Pity me already!

[Hael]

@Kho

There, there... Orabil is the exception, not the rule.

But the OTHERS, the OTHERS ARE THOUGHTLESS!

[Frettzo]

Well guys, the human attack is screwed xD In the middle of the preparation for battle, a nightmare battalion of Cimex will appear out of nowhere due to the soldiers' fears xD
