Edain Mod: Elves vs Dwarves
« on: December 24, 2020, 05:08:51 pm »


0.01: Dain rides forward on his boar. For some reason he has not sent any skirmishers out.
0.35: He sees the Elven army and retreats, dodging a few arrows.
0.57: Dain rejoins his army of Dwarves from the Iron Hills.
1.03: The Dwarven cavalry charge around the pikemen—Dwarves armed with spears, riding huge goats. Why Dain thinks a cavalry charge into a strong force of archers and spearmen is a good idea is unknown.
1.14: The Elven archers are idiotically deployed in front of the spearmen! They see the goat-riders and prepare to fire. They wait until the Dwarves are almost on top of them.
1.22: They somehow barely get a few shots in before they're trampled and destroyed by the wave of goats.
1.27: The spearmen of the Elves move forward to meet the Dwarven advance, but do not lower their spears.
1.32: The Dwarves somehow smash right through the spearmen at first. They are eventually stopped. Serves them right for running right into spears.
1.33: The Dwarven pikemen finally advance. Dain leads them.
1.37: Finally a good idea—the Dwarves lower their pikes and form a loose phalanx. The Elves do the same.
1.47: Thranduil leads his soldiers in a huge charge on the Dwarven left, but they slow down, weakening their attack. None protect their king, who is brought down by the Dwarves.
1.59: Neither side moves now—they appear to be too scared.
2.01: "To be continued" appears on the screen.
