I don't have anything to defend here, but I do think there are definite
lessons that could be taught with this scenario. The OverLord 
has been in the business of armies for a long long time if 
reading Old Testament history tells us anything. And he won't
be out of it until the rider of the white horse whose name is 
Faithful and True judges and makes war and leads His army into
the last battle.

The biggest draw I have to this idea is that it is perhaps one of 
the best ways to communicate to a small group that we are only 
part of a much bigger whole. With the right writing a group might
learn that hundreds of others depend on their actions. I'm getting
convicted just writing this!

I think we as Christians are sometimes guilty of downplaying a 
Warrior King not afraid to show triumph over His enemies. A goblin
is sin which the OverLord calls us to kill on sight. If that sight is 
hundreds, their death in mass is no less AND no greater victory
to the OverLord than single combat. Like all the great elements of
DragonRaid I think it is not the idea here but it's use by the AM 
that will make this useful or not to what God wants to teach a 
group.

Just offering a different opinion for iron sharpening. I would be
happy to fight and minister alongside anybody on the list!
