Ironically, this is probably the best an "evil" army has ever done: the casualty rate of "goodbeats" to vermin here was almost 1:1. That's better performance than pretty much every other vermin army to date...- [[User:D2r|d2r]] 16:38, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

hmm, good point. It kinda makes you wonder why the woodlands are always so afraid of vermin. I mean, yeah in big numbers they're dangerous, but the Redwallers always manage to pull together and come out on top. :) [[User:Arrowtail |Arrowtail ]][[File:Dimp.jpg|50px|]][[User Talk:Arrowtail |Pure randomness!]] 15:25, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

:Perhaps because the vermin are triumphant in a signficant number of battles that AREN'T in the books, and the woodlanders etc. are nervous because they aren't aware that they're in a book (they can't break the fourth wall), and that their victory is therefore guaranteed. Incidentally, I wonder if I should label this as a tactical draw; this was basically a case where both sides took heavy casualties and withdrew heavily battered. And that term "Pyrrhic" really seems to imply that the victory led to some sort of long-run defeat. - [[User:D2r|d2r]] 23:33, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

another good point. I suppose if i'm in a book right now, i don't know what's gonna happen in three hours. Still, the abbey stood for many year and hasn't been conquered yet. But I guess the power of adrenalin from fear is better than reckless overconfidence.
