It has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt that the most powerful force on Wu is a bunch of messed-up Malazans with Moranth munitions.

Good...I seem to remember the number 500. Actually, I'm pretty sure that number was used.

I seriously doubt 200 died taking Letheras. It caved worse than when the Edur came in... Fid's party was the advance group, the rest held up after entering the city. They "needed relief" because they were packed together, pinnned-down, and had been invading non-stop for a couple weeks.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

200 would be a 25% mortality rate. You think that is "few"?

Even when a ton died in Y'Ghatan, they converted the 3rd Company (8th Legion) to become new marines so no matter how many are lost there's still going to be more...

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

Who thinks the rest of the 14th is up to a campaign in the east? Granted, they will probably be supported by the Perish but after the battle they had against the Letherii what are your respective opinions?
