“Enemy troops were horribly timed and lacked any cohesion at all — a hallmark of TUF military efforts.” – Dlord Leader Belegar Ironhammer

TUF’s Karl Aegis Targets Dlords’ Gori in Azura

Screen Shot 2015-07-13 at 9.40.41 AMTUF is continuing to take the fight to Dlords in Elgea, despite the dwarven alliance’s robust footprint there. The most recent siege involves TUF’s Karl Aegis laying down a siege on Dlords’ Gori in Azura. News of the siege flashed across GC earlier:

[12:25]<System> ** News Flash: Gori’s [Dlord] large town of 4. Helms Deep is now under siege by Karl Aegis’ [TUF] burgeoning city of Harmony’s Perch

Followed by an official posting in the siege section of the Herald:

Gori [Dlord] 4. Helms Deep [-582|-794] in Azura Karl Aegis [TUF] Mon 25 Apr 12:25

The siege may be a difficult one for Aegis, as the siege and blockade are both on plains sieges, which are usually susceptible to cavalry strikes. In the case of the Dlords, however, where cavalry is not the race’s strong suit, the choice of a plains siege may prove to be more viable.
