Unless Tramennis has a huge leadership bonus, the highest bonus is now Jillian's 9.

Aw, Wanda! Stop tryin' to make me hate you, you're one of the fun characters!

Poor Ansom. He'll never look at Wanda the same way again.

On the plus side, you can see Jack being tended to in panel 2, so it seems he's not quite dead after all.

What fun. Though, really, on a military level that "tactical surprise", doesn't seem all that dangerous. I would guess that they have at least 50 Dwagons (which I maintain are the strongest erf units we've met so far), so they should be able to wipe out the city fairly easily. They probably wouldn't be able to hold it, but that doesn't really matter, does it? All they have to do is sack the capital and kill slately. Unless I'm mistaken, that would automatically make all other Jetstone properties barbarian, right? Not to mention that losing their capital and king would damage morale horrendously. Dwagons have a lot of move, I'm sure that after destroying Jetstone they could get out of range. Maybe return to their lines and issue an ultimatum: Unless the remaining sides surrender and the coalition breaks up, they'll hit one capital after the next. But this is just speculation. Military speculation at that. I'm not sure what'll happen on the personal level. D'you think Wanda will want Jillan decrypted? Because I'm not so sure...

NEW COMIC

Apparently Jillian has a secret force of Archons in Jetstone's airspace. A very large force of Archons that would hugely skew Parson's odds there.

Also shame on Parson for not doing the obvious tactic.

We shall see what happens. I wouldn't count on the Archon force being too large, but Wanda will be getting a lot more than she planned for. I wonder... if she dies, will all decrypted be wiped out with her?

One thing that I find strange is that Parson reported only a 56% probability of capturing the Garrison. Are "9 unipegataurs, a few Orlies, 26 Gwiffons and 4 Megalogwiffs" really that strong a force?

Loyal · 12-26-2009, 01:05 AM

With the right leadership bonuses.

Besides, we can only assume that Megalogwiffs are utterly, absolutely, shit-your-pants terrifying in battle.

Geminex · 12-26-2009, 02:33 AM

Possibly. Though considering the cost and training times of Dwagons (and the fact that you need an artifact to train them) I would've imagined that they'd be the ultimate flying shizzle. But we shall see...

My best guess is that Megalogwiffs are on par with Dwagons - you match Faq's air force against 15 Dwagons and they go down, 70-90% of the time.

For those who don't know, the obvious strategy is wing it to one of the capital sides (preferably Hagger) and raze THEM, and continue to do so for the other sides until they're too severely depleted to maintain that huge force.
