In Response To: And the winner is : Soulblighter... (Din)

: Long time ago I had a disagreement about who was the most
: destructive person and whose army was harder to
: beat.The Majority vote Balor-the Leveler-.Me and few
: others were the minority to support Soulblighter.
: The followings are facts that lead me to my previous
: decision.

Who was the more powerful person and whose army was harder to beat are two very different questions. I think Balor himself was much more powerful than Soulblighter, but that Soulblighter's army was more powerful than Balor's.

: -Exept the original known dark army of
: Thralls,Wights,Ghasts,Soulless,Fethces and Ghols
: Soulblighter had the terrible Myrkridia and Myrkridia
: Giants!!!( No ordinary warrior can stand and fight a
: Myrk)
: -There are no longer the Forrest Giants who were a very
: important unit for the light
: -Fir'Bolg no longer support forces of light.That means
: that King Alric's army miss their technologies and he
: forces to spend number of his vital/healthy men to
: train them as range units(Bowmen)insteed of
: strenghtening the Legion.
: -Soulblighter got another hard defensive unit:Mauls.
: -Soulblighter brought one of the best and most frightful
: units:"Mahir".
: -Soulblighter sieged and destroyed the cities of light
: much easier than Balor (he even took Tandem).

Soulblighter's army was definitely better than Balor's, despite being, from what I can tell, smaller.

: As for the Mighty Trow,they were no real threat for
: Soulblighter.We seldom saw them in action (they only
: took place in the siege/capture/defense of
: Muirthemne.They were allies for only one year with the
: light and from the time that he had Myrkridia Giants
: in his army he was stronger than Balor who had Trow.

To truly know was more destructive, we would need to give both of them the same army and pit them against the same light force. Any true comparison has to take into account the differences in the wars and the forces, which is very hard to do.

: -Even,there were some people who went at his side like
: Baron Kilder.

Who would you rather have at your side.. Baron Kilder(sp?) or the Fallen Lords?

: -Soulblighter slaughtered Cruniac(a very capable Warrior)

Balor and the Fallen Lords(themselves, not their armies) killed several avatara, who were almost certainly more powerful than Cruniac, as capable as he was.

: -Even when the Legion had the Heron guard (Elite
: troops)King Alric never confronted Soulblighter
: straight ahead.

Yes he did. What do you think happened in Twice Born and The Forge?

: He always on the run from city to city.

Which happened both times, so that doesn't say much.

: On the Great War he went a campaign to Balor's Fortress!
: -King Alric's only way to fight Soulblighter's army and
: himself was only with the help of Balmung Sword.

Soulblighter didn't have a Fortress. And Alric's only way to fight Balor himself was with the Eblis(sp?) stone. Besides, the reason the sword is so effective is because Alric is extremely powerful.

: The conclusions now are yours!
: Do you still have the same opinion?

yes

: PS:O!! and something else:Soulblighter didn't have the
: aid from other Fallen lords(exept Shiver) like Balor
: had!

True, but consider that Balor was powerful enough to BIND the fallen lords to him, while Soulblighter was probably not(since if he was, I would imagine that he would have done it)

: Friedly Din.

Friendly Smasher.
