It has to be decent, Warner Bros doesn't much hits now that Harry Potter ended, Green Lantern being a made of fail, and The Dark Knight trilogy is coming to an end next year.

The quiz that these roles are coming from.

Create a 5 Man Band based on the roles everyone has received. A 5 Bad Band is also acceptable.

True true. Still say they should make a Justice League movie sometime though, with the Avengers being on the big screen next summer and all. No more excuses Warner Bro.

Nemebro (Necromancer= Big Bad), Ridley (Rogue = Dragon I guess) Quan (Dark Knight= The Brute), Blax (Merchant *snicker* = Eeeevil Genius mwahahaaha!), Nephthys (Magician = Dark Chick tee hee).

Big Bad Band.

Haha it's funny cause you have a girls name.

Funny story, truejedi (or maybe slash...... mmm), a guy I've known over in the star wars EU section for like 3-4 years, only figured out I was a guy a few months ago. The whole time he thought I was a chick.

I wonder why :33

Well your pic does have breasts.

But yeah, Gender: Male. I see it right der.

5 Man Band

Aura(Adventurer=Hero), Scenario(Enchanter=Lancer), CC(Warrior=Big Guy), DP(Tactician=Smart Guy), Xan(Priest=Heart), NemeSis(Trapper=Tagalong kid), Scream(Alcoholic=Team Pet).

And I guess either BR or FA for 6th Ranger. Whichever seems best. I think both could work.

Huh. Not exactly what I expected.

You're the Bard in our DnD campaign.

Seems about right to me.

1.Whether he left them or not the warden you play as was saved by Flemeth anyways so his decision had no bearing good or bad on the warden. If he(they) lost the entire army that's a much bigger drawback than just losing Cailan's forces which in the end didn't matter anyway.

2.Ok, and like I said this was due to Loghain being unaware of the importance of the wardens so he can't be blamed.

3.Uhm, seriously when the archdemon was killed they all ran screaming into the night basically. If they were so uberly formidable without an archdemon why'd they book all hell out of there the moment he was killed. Answer because as a threat they are rudderless and directionless without the archdemon. I seriously feel sorry that you don't understand or grasp the obvious. The army you amass would crush a rudderless, splintered darkspawn who just randomly walk around. They would absolutely destroy them. If 4 really exceptional beings can do it imagine what 10,000 or so individuals can do with tactics along with more than 4 exceptional in an army of 10,000.

4.They aren't as a race known for their intelligence. Emissaries can be the exception but in the dlc of the first game it was such a surprise to find intelligent well organized darkspawn. The fereldens have a huge advantage against normal darkspawn because of this. What makes them a threat to the entire land is when they have a purpose leadership. If they don't they are hard to wipe out sure but as a group they are rudderless. The game makes it clear.

I don't think they'd be easily defeated but if you got a massive army they'd get annihilated. I am sure they'd still survive but you could really dwindle their numbers with such an organized force. That's the point.

Yeah, an alternate timeline where you play as the darkspawn and Alistair leads the resistance. Key word alternate.

Oh look Quan is trying to make words again.

1. Something Loghain did not plan, if not for Flemeth, Fereldan would have been doomed. If Loghain was left in power, Fereldan would be ****ed. He would not have lost the entire army. With his strategies and with their forces, with Ostagar, they could have continued a prolonged, effective defense against the Darkspawn there, keeping innocents from being fubarred. But no, he deliberately, this cannot be emphasized enough, DELIBERATELY sabotaged Ostagar from the beginning. He was a fool, who let his prejudice cloud his judgment.

2. ONLY FOOLS IGNORE HISTORY.

3. It exploded, driving them off, yes. But this Blight was also the smallest Blight in history, and the death of the Archdemon would and did drive them off. Point? If the Darkspawn could be fought and crushed so easily in the Deep Roads, they would have been. They haven't been, and the Darkspawn number in the millions, at the very least, and can spawn Darkspawn from the numerous Broodmothers underneath the dirt. Get over it.

4. Yes they are smart enough to safeguard Broodmothers, smart enough to capture women to make Broodmothers, and as I said the Emissaries are intelligent. The Darkspawn could not hope to assail the surface without an Archdemon, this is true. But in the Deep Roads, no standing army has a chance against them.

Their numbers are INFINITE, Broodmothers can continuously spawn them, and their territory consists of all of the underground of Thedas. No army can make a realistic dent in that.

1. If Loghain did join the army the hero still could have been killed in the tower so it doesn't matter either way. Loghain charging into battle wouldn't have helped the hero in the tower. No, he wasn't a fool if they lost all their forces at ostagar they would have been a lot worse off than just losing the King's forces.

2.This is a secret kept among the wardens. If this was something everyone knew that's another thing but acting as if he should know the exact reason why they are needed is preposterous.

3.The fact they haven't been destroyed doesn't mean they can't or that my proposal of sending a massive army wouldn't pretty much cripple their numbers. You know it and I know it.

4.Based on what ? we see 4 elite people being more than a force against them so why would increasing their numbers 100 fold hurt their chances ? How can you even utter something so ridiculous if 4 guys can do it let alone an entire army.

Hint--hunt down and kill as many broodmothers as possible. I am not saying it's easy to totally eradicate them but to clear off most of them it would just take time and a massive army thoroughly scouring the deep roads.

Actually its pretty clear to me that Loghain allowed the tower to be taken by the darkspawn. If you go to it before the battle his forces have barracaded the entire place off and are 'exploring tunnels beneath the tower' (you'd think the 'tactical genius' would be somewhat aware that the thing which his entire plan hinges upon has a vast network of tunnels beneath it that the darkspawn could obviously use). Theres also the gigantic hole in the ground which the darkspawn obviously came through, which I highly doubt they missed as well as the tower already being covered in darkspawn decorations.

Loghains plan basically hinged on the signal not being set off so he could realistically say that he didn't support the king because the signal wasn't lit and the signal wasn't lit because the Wardens who were sent to light it were traitors. When it is lit he panics and orders a retreat anyway no matter how guilty it makes him look (a hell of a lot).

If they lost? Who the hell says they would have? Despite Loghains purposefully bad tactics (yes, run out of a bottleneck, that'll end well ๐Ÿ™„ ) they were doing fine and if Loghain had actually charged their flank they would have won by my reckoning. What makes you think they would have lost at all?

4.Based on what ? we see 4 elite people being more than a force against them so why would increasing their numbers 100 fold hurt their chances ? How can you even utter something so ridiculous if 4 guys can do it let alone an entire army.

The Warden only fought stragglers and such. The video on the last page (or one before that) shows how massive the horde is. Like shit 4 people could take that.

Nephthys, you need hipster glasses.

That is all.
