Note: please don't get butthurt. I give 300 a bigger number for a reason. I'm trying to make this even. Knowing if I give them both equal numbers, Daein will win due to this fanfic and the lack of info in the game. Yeah, Daein has the best moraled military in the continent. If this is very uneven, this will be editted. Don't flag it.
1,000,000,000 Spartans plus 2,500,000 Greeks, plus the 30 million Persians vs the Daein Army of 500,000 elite Daein forces reinforced by 25,000 Crimean soldiers along with 550,000 Hryloth warriors after the destruction of Melior were send to protect their lands, knowing that Daein might get their eye on Greece and Persia altogether. Greeks and Persian may have numbers but the Daein Army is more advanced in technology and deadly war machines and not to mention procession of mithril, silver, steel, and iron armor and weaponry.
Since everyone knows about 300, I won't need to describe them. Yes, Leonidas, Themistcles, Xerxes made a pact and unite against a enemy with vast numbers.
Crimean army are not bad but their infantry force are lacking in experience compare to their Daein conquerors as the Crimean military only relies of powerful marksmen or archers, their powerful and quick cavalry, and their 40 feet war oliphants. Crimean navy is the strongest navy of all of Tellius.
Hryloth made a pact and alliance with Daein due to fear that Ashnard would go and annihilate their country from the face of the Earth. They rely brute strength but they lack skill in fighting despite they kept losing a ground battle with their rival, Crimea. They do have a powerful navy but not as good as Crimea, but it's larger in numbers. Truth be told, these men fear not just Ashnard but Daein's military power even they outnumber the Daein in soldiers.
The Daein Army... Strength and discipline is the key to Daein's success. The army itself is mostly consist of elites and professional legionaries and aerial force of powerful feared beast of wyvern riders and griffon riders.. Rarely are there any militias and inexperienced recruits due to their infamous, harsh, and brutal training when a soldier is young. It's required that every boy at the age of 6 or 7 will start building up physical strength in fighting and physique. Even at a very young age, they are required to wear leather armor weighing at least 10 pounds while training. Daein also have famous blacksmiths that was able to make great quality armor and mithril weapons for elites such as Vague Kattis(Katana-like swords, long and sharp that could cut through bronze and iron armor easily), Wishblades(Halberd-like lances, powerful and it's tip is pointy and around a foot long, it's power was to pierce through anything including bronze shields, its shaft is made out of iron which makes the weapon heavy), and Urvans(30 pounds of mithril axe and it's famous for its power and weight.) As they grow older, their training gets tougher and harsher beyond the limits as the military drill sergeants in Daein are very strict and brutal. Not only weapons were feared in Daein but armor too. Their gloves or gauntlets are designed to brutalize their enemies as spikes appear on the knuckles after Soren was born. They call it or remember it by, "Tellius steel in a Daein fist.", making Daein even more feared in battle. Not just armor was feared but their siege weapons advanced compare to all the countries of Tellius combined as Soren, the Prince, designed the dual catapult that shoots two boulders at once, a
trebuchet, the repeating ballista that shoots at least 50 bolts in a minute. Daein was famous to recruit strong men and able to hire strong mercenaries as well use laguz in war purposes by using a portion to make them the 'Feral Ones'. The Feral Ones are consisted of Red and White Dragons of Goldoa, Beast laguz(Tiger, Cat, Dog) of Gallia, Hawk and Falcons of Phoenicis, and the Ravens and crows of Kilvas.
Note: Please don't get butthurt. If this is unfair I will edit to make it even. I had the first one with the same title but due to Daein superior numbers, I have to change it with 300 with bigger numbers since they are bronze age soldiers and Daein is more medival.
Wonder what a War Oliphaunt is: it's the same Oliphaunt taken from Lord of the Rings which is why I give 300 bigger numbers.
I could tell you the strength and weaknesses now. Greeks are one of the best warriors in the world and very disciplined. Persians have numbers. Daein is the strongest militaristic nation in Tellius.
How would they beat Ashnard's leading Daein? Hold together and do not go fight hand to hand against any Daein soldier, they will lose. Go to the face if facing a Nevassan Guard, bronze won't damage their armor. I give you that one but if I have to tell you that it will rarely happen which is why I number Spartans to 1 million. Persian arrows might not affect the Daein army much since the first chapter, Daein did a testudo and they all have tower shields.
How would Daein win? Soren's tactical mind and advanced and terrifying siege weapons. The morale command of any of the Great Riders. And their aerial assaulting wyvern riders and griffon riders.
How will Daein lose? It's obvious. Getting Out flanked which is one reason why I give 300 a greater number.
Location, you decide! It could be narrow pass or wherever.
Also, no magic even if you see Soren.... and Petrine.
Daein military leaders and commanders:
The Great Riders(Petrine, Bryce, Tauroneo, Lanvega, Zelgius(Mention below)) are marshals of the Daein army. Due to lack of infomation of them because my friend didn't tell me how he could display them in combat, they don't have a story but if I have to tell you... Petrine is a Daein Kataphrakt unless the author add a new unit to the Daein military? She married Zelgius and bore two sons, William and Wes. Petrine is a tough cookie and I found a source that she might use to be a gladiator. She is a Raven brand, giving her the speed, resistance to magic, and some magical power in her which powers up her flame lance of hell fiery aura. Bryce is also pretty strong and even the second strongest rider behind Zelgius currently and he was a Nevassan Guard due to his weapon being a Wishblade. Lanvega is a question mark as no info was founf on him except Tauroneo stated that he was a stubborn swordsman so he used to be a Daein Kataphrakt, Daein Reaver, Daein Ancari, Holy Blade, Holy Lancer, or a Praven Vanguard. Tauroneo is definately a Nevassan Guard. Zelgius was a Nevassan Guard but most of his training was as a Praven Vanguard.
In Crimean army was Renning aka Bertum(Fatal Beorc Rider) was a Crimean Royal Knight whose skills exceed those including the Daein Kataphrakt. The Crimean Royal Knight is the best cavalry in all of Tellius but their mounts are not steel melee resistant like the Daein Kataphrakt whose mounts were armored with mithril, steel, and silver combined.
Soren, the prince of Daein and a master strategist and tactician of the Daein military. He was the designer of the deadly siege weapons that Daein made. Master magic, so powerful that he has caught up to one of the most powerful and oldest magic user, Lehran, who was over 1000 years old Heron laguz who lost his laguz form after his marriage with a beorc and founder of Begnion. Soren is not just skilled in magic but he's pretty skilled with the sword. He's a Black Dragon branded, the rarest branded due to Goldoa(Dragon Tribe) neutrality as the dragons are forbid to exit Goldoa which Soren's mother, Almedha who is the princess, ran away and married Ashnard. His brand gives him the potential of immense strength, great intelligence, and incredible and dread power. Soren has never lost a single battle even when he's outnumbered like his father and he rides on a 45 feet long head to tail armored Daein wyvern, Hurricane, the second biggest wyvern of all of Tellius. Soren manage to wrecken the military of Begnion all the way to Begnion's capital, Sienne, and brought the capital to its knees until a hero rise. The man who have cost him victory was Ike, the son of Gawain and the brother of Zelgius. Not once did Ike beat him but twice due to men follow a strong leader and not even Soren's master plans could beat the will of Ike's forces. His final confrontation with Ike, he lost and became a prisoner to Crimea until Rajaion, the Prince of Goldoa who also disobey the King and Soren's uncle convinced him to help Ike and Crimea to reclaim their home and defeat Ashnard. Later after he did help, all of Daein except for the city of Praven are under Begnion control with help of Athed. Three long years, Soren manage to get his men back and reconquer Daein with the help of the remaining Daein army from Crimea and Praven against Begnion to aid his brother, Pelleas and the Dawn Bridgate who leads the Daein Liberation Army. Soren was reponsible for Begnion's slip of control of Daein. If Soren not have intervene then Jerrod and his Begnion forces would have defeated the Daein Liberation Army. Soren hated Begnion and Athed with rage as to him, those two nations are at Daein's borders.Zelgius is not only a soldier but he's the figurehead of the Daein army due to his overwhelming strength, experiences, speed, and he has prove Daein's military to its extant when he defeated the great Athed Emperor in single combat in a matter of seconds. He is the song of the legendary swordsmen and previous Great Rider of Daein, Gawain, who was the previous lord of Praven, the rival city to Daein's capital, Nevassa. His father was the previous wielders of two stolen holy powerful swords, Ragnel and Aldonite. When he was 66 years old, he challenge his father in combat and won but unsatisfied as he knew the father he knew would never be beaten, not even him, his own son, when he tried to give his father Ragnel but was refused. Zelgius only kept Aldonite while his younger brother, Ike, took Ragnel and vow revenge as Ike never know Zelgius was his brother when he witness Zelgius murder of their father. Zelgius is the husband of a fellow Great Rider, Petrine, and a father of two future Great Riders, William and Wes. He's a Hawk Branded which gives him an ability to be speedy, strong, and skilled in combat in a very young age of 3. Because of that brand, he was able to run quick with his bulky armor. After the death of Petrine, Zelgius was in sorrow and vow vengence against his younger brother. Before he battled Ike, he was facing the feared and powerful Eagle King, Tibarn, of the notorious bird tribe and manage to won in matter of strength. Zelgius was indeed the deadliest warrior of all of Daein as he is said that no Laguz Kings might not defeat him, not even the most durable, oldest, greatest, and powerful Black Dragon King of Goldoa, Deginshea, Soren's grandfather. Some people think Ashnard had a strength to match with Zelgius but they are wrong as Zelgius is older and more experienced with the blade. Even he is the Lord of Praven, all of the Nevassan Guard dressed the same armor as him. When he was facing Ike's forces, he met Ike and battle him in single combat with both wielding the Holy Swords. Zelgius almost killed Ike as he manage to put Ike to his knees. When Zelgius was going for the final blow, Ike surprisingly defeated him with a swift and sneaky attack by stabbing Ragnel to Zelgius. Zelgius was believed dead until he awoke after the battle, as a prisoner to Crimea. He was released when Ike requested him to and the two improve their relationship and Zelgius agrees to train Ike like he has fully forgive his brother after Petrine's death. He then became a legendary head figure of the Daein Army like his father and lived to serve Soren for extra hundreds or thousand of years.The Mad King Ashnard(not making this up) is a very powerful swordsmen and he was able to defeat the Begnion and Athed force in a single battle. He rides on his wyvern, Glaurung, a 50 feet long from head to tail armored Daein wyvern and the largest wyvern in history, even larger than Soren's Hurricane. A first wielder of Gurgurant(passed down to Soren after his death), he could kill 5 soldiers in one swing. He was responsible for the deaths of millions in a war with Begnion and Athed, defeating 4 armies which the biggest army he faced was 6 million from Athed and Begnion combined against Ashnard's 15,000 Nevassan Guards. Daein only lost 200 in that battle due to the Nevassan Guard's adamant shields, mithril heavy armor, weapons, and their incredible strength and unbelievable speed with a heavy armor. Daein lost 4,000 soldiers in that war which Begnion and Athed lost at least 15 million lives, resulting Daein's rise as a superpower. When Ashnard and his Daein Army continues to gain strength, he plans for the invasion of Gallia, Cremia ally and possibly the strongest laguz nation in Tellius and famous for their strength. As he plans, the country of Daein was invaded by Ike and surprisingly, Ike was able to take the city of Nevassa which took at least 15 full days and at least 10 million to take the large and powerful 10 leveled city. Grunted of the defeat, he built up resistance to counter Ike's army and they lost even Soren and Zelgius lost. As loses pass, Daein was still able to take on Ike's army until the beast tribe of Gallia led by the Lion King's Shadow and the black Lion name Giffca, the eagle and hawk tribe of Pheonis led by the Eagle King Tibarn, the revan tribe of Kilvas led by Raven King Naesala, and the powerful dragon nation of Goldoa led by the Black Dragon Princes, Rajaion and Kurthnaga, formally declare war on Ashnard which made Daein's control of Crimea to slip away. The last battle, Ashnard and Ike fought and Ashnard was persume dead when Ike shatter Gurgurant. After the shatter of Gurgurant, Ashnard sneak attack Ike with his broken sword and manage to put Ike on his back. Ashnard stab Ike to the chest, fatally wounding the undefeated general but was ambushed with a stab to the heart by Ike. Ike turned Ashnard to his back and push Ragnel deeping until the whole sword was plunge through Ashnard's heart, ending the war with milion lives taken again in the hands of Ashnard's Daein armies. Daein's superpower status was gone and handed over to Cremia to Begnion until Daein reclaimed it with Soren's ambition to reclaim his country.
Daein wins. I read that fanfic a week ago and you know how hard Ike has to kill the first Nevassan Guard in that battle. And Zelgius and Ashnard would solo this one by a landslide. Doesn't matter if you give more numbers to Sparta and Persia, Daein would win. And how do you know some of those stuff? Did you talk to the author?
