Lothian was not among the generals as they met, instead watching from afar back at the camp, this was partly because he found his presence among them pointless and partly because he didn't have a mount with him, his mount was precious to him so he opted to leave it behind. Despite his distance he was able to the precedings but not hear them, including the attempted assassination and it's arcane thwarting.

In the strategy tent Lothian was mostly silent in his observation of this first gathering. He was trying to gauge the quality of this coalition and his initial impression was rather poor. The orc's bid for command was met with such a mixed reaction that he shook his head at the thought that this group can't even be united in hatred. Lothian himself saw no issue with the orc leading the first day, despite not being the best at offensive strategy what orcs did have the intelligence for it did often have a head for defense as he would know better than most others here. Their banter continued for another short moment before Alexander called for someone to simply take action, which this Pizurk was quick to respond to.

Lothian couldn't help but agree with the orcs strategy: a defensive line and archers to met their infantry, knights on the flanks to ward off their cavalry, and their own cavalry to close a trap on enemy forces. All-in-all seemed a decent strategy, especially with some reserves to handle anything unexpected. He nodded "I can agree with this plan, my men will be ready" and before anyone else could mention the unused markers "I believe it's wise not to throw everything into every skirmish. This is a battle for survival, not for victory, and we can afford unnecessary losses" He caste a short glance toward Gyrid under his helmet, he was speaking to everyone but he felt it was her that needed reminding the most "we should deploy enough to ensure we win the day, too much more and we risk exhausting what little we have"
@Nariata Those mages just seem to accelerate natural healing. They're probably better suited to keeping the lightly wounded in the fight rather than getting the seriously injured back to a fighting shape before the next battle.
@6slyboy6 now that you mention that...

no one brought a surgeon did they? we don't have much to deal with our injured.
I think I'm gonna wait to be the last post in the strategy phase here.
@6slyboy6 Well alright then, there you go.
@6slyboy6 I just seems easily countered. I can't imagine it has the greatest mobility, limited further by it's range of movement being confined to a rail system. And while the front is armored against fire it wouldn't be hard for light cave to get around it and throw torches or something with fire, But I guess that is where the rest of us come in. putting some of whats-his-name's royal knights by it as guards could ward off something like that.

of course none of this accounts for whatever magic capabilities the empire has...
Personally I give the tower till day 2...

just popped out of the woodworks ta say that, don't mind me
I dunno if I'm getting a little crazy here but could we make a makeshift fortress out of those siege towers?
just anchor them in the ground somewhere and build something like a palisade between them
I'm not sure who to vote for as a commander yet but I don't think I should be it one the first day
@TJByrum Hey up on that post that's listing all our forces you reversed the L and D in Noldor

I know it's a minor mistake but we elves have our pride
