[CONFLICT] Kill Them Softly

[u/thewildryanoceros]

12,875 Infantry, 3,950 Cavalry, and 1,625 Mages, a total of 18,450 Nords begin engaging in guerilla warfare in High Rock, attempting to slow the Aldmeri advance. They attack in groups of 20-200, and avoid all conventional warfare. Instead, they use hit-and-run tactics, sabotage, and small scale ambushes to reduce the strength the Aldmeri Army.

The Nords do what they can to avoid civilian casualties, though many were unavoidable. They began to inform to spread anti-Aldmeri propaganda, telling the populace that the Thalmor were trying to use the Bretons as human shields to save themselves. They developed codes and signals to tell the people when to flee an area so that the Nords could carry out their raids with out fear of innocent casualties. If the Thalmor began to catch on and followed the civilians out, skilled Nord archers would begin picking off the Aldmeri soldiers, and Nord agents would emerge from the crowd to take them down.

[M] /u/cthulhuh00p could we determine how many are left on either side?

[u/cthulhuh00p → u/thewildryanoceros]

It depends on how many /u/tofu_kiin had to start with.

[The only numbers I can find in the entire Daggerfall campaign are here. Subtract 1,000 mages and 4,000 infantry from those numbers for losses.]

[u/cthulhuh00p → u/tofu_kiin]

OK. I'd say all of the Nords perish, and about 25,000 Dominion soldiers die, as well. That's 5,000 cavalry, 10,000 mages, and 10,000 infantry. /u/thewildryanoceros

[M] I was gonna reunite my forces and do a valiant last stand. Conventional warfare style. If that's alright. So like if I had one thousand left, unite and fight against tofu's massive army. They'd all die then of course.

[u/cthulhuh00p → u/thewildryanoceros]

You can RP with this however long you want. But the numbers will most likely stay the same.

[u/thewildryanoceros → u/cthulhuh00p]

Sweet.
