Dorvish-Dundorfian War (OOC Thread)

[Revionx]

Can we establish how many men have been lost by both sides. Also Dorvik, can you clarify your troop numbers?

Roughly 15-20k per division for me.

Dorvik likely is to suggest minor to moderate loses while you'd like suffer more.

Air losses amongst my Fighter Bombers would be light; mostly those that got caught with Twister escorts along with light losses with my Fighter Aircraft, but I came hard with a lot of modern Fighters and grabbed Air supremacy realitively quickly. Losses amongst my Bombers would be zero as they never left Rutanian Airspace... I'll post again once Farsun has... technically I'm here in support of him so I'd go where Dorvische ground Forces needed Mr most

[Revionx]

I think moderate losses on both side but more for Dundorf and significant infrastructure damage and killed civilians. The justification for this being as Dundorf was in heavily entrenched positions for most battles and retreated almost immediately upon the threat of defeat. For Dorvik I would say a significant amount were lost in Zerlin. This is not including losses in the Civil War which is likely to be considered an extension of this war. I agree that Hutori would have lost little to none.

In my post that is waiting to be posted I explain that the areas captured by Dorvik are turned over to the Dundorfian Reich government in exile which would mostly be police forces and newly raised forces, the Dorvish would've suffered far less then Dundorf simply by the fact that the Dundorfian forces wouldn't be as coordinated, equipped or trained. I'll say Moderate, I got no problem with that but heavy would be far too much.

[Revionx]

so you relocated the HQ? Also for the battle of Oderveld Salient there were aprox 70-80 thousand Dundorfians with more than half heavily entrenched so Dorvik's losses would have been sizable. on a sidenote the new Dorvish Government is offering peace and IC wise I will have to accept.

[Farsun]

Dorvik's plan was never to hold Zerlin (what we know as Dunburg) but turn it over to the government in exile which is part of the post I have. So you can destroy it all you want, that's fine but the Dorvish forces are heavily mobile so a static location to bomb them would be tough....not to mention the Hutotian air cover artillery strikes be incredibly difficult.

You're troops are also lightly armored versus heavily armored tanks and mechanized forces....that usually doesn't end well lmao

They can offer peace but the SNP won't accept it because of the genocide and murder of our ambassador; were also in talk with the freaken pacifist in our country. They need 2/3 and they won't have it.

[Revionx]

Troops have some piercing weapons and heavy artillery, Im not saying you would have been defeated but you would have suffered relatively equivalent losses not to mention that Dundorf has many forests and cities that are unfavourable locations for armor and mechanized troops. Hutorian Air cover is limited to the west.

From what I'm away Dunberg is in the western side of Oderveld but I could be wrong... and as of now Hutori has Air supremacy effectively all of western Dundorf. Any massed troops would get assaulted by air strikes... I'll give you that static positions you'd wipe out piecemeal, it's the Dorvische Armored formations and close Air support from Hurricanes and Twisters you need to truly worry about

Do remember they r not just sitting around they are heavily entrenched but most of the losses would have been from airstrikes. Thats why the retreated. To my knowledge Zerlin was towards the center of Oderveld.
