Being able to attack as one, defend as one is key to great army results. If they can hold formation in battle, and lack of fear makes this way easier, they could be a Roman Legion level of function and mow down the enemy like a lawnmower. I do not recall a skeleton force before that could march like elite troops before. Overlord may have taken its time getting here, but with the pieces now coming together, the real fun is about to start.
Pretty obvious what the outcome will be, but that doesn’t mean we’ll be lacking in entertainment. Yeah, I think we all know where this story is heading next.īefore getting to those dreams of world conquest, however, first comes conquering the lizardmen and giving Cocytus the redemption he deserves. Should they do so papa bones has the world by the skull horns, with the only thing missing being the people to impart his control over. It’s the sort of governance which allowed many an empire to thrive far beyond expectations, and one Ainz hopes he can trust his floor guardians to follow. On the other hand the promise to have Cocytus face the lizardman alone was respect, showing Ainz could be reasoned with and-most importantly-expected to uphold his bargains. On one hand Ainz’s grand display (with Demiurge’s application of magic) was a display of potential ruthlessness for example, showing how easy it would be for him to wipe out an otherwise insignificant annoyance. In effect play nicely, but act ruthlessly if anyone breaks the established order.

As long as the loyalty of the subordinates (i.e. The best systems always impart a degree of decentralization, where underlings are allowed to adapt to changing circumstances. Having your subordinates follow your will to the letter may sound good in practice, but when unforeseen circumstances arise-and they always do-such rigid command structures quickly break down. Nevertheless I think we all know what it’s setting up for next week: total domination.Īs discussed last time, the primary purpose of Cocytus’ expedition wasn’t to defeat the lizardmen, but rather educate Cocytus in the importance of independent thought. After spending a fair amount time dealing with our new friends the lizardmen, perceptive changed ever so slightly as the reasoning and purpose behind Ainz’s reptilian excursion was finally revealed.
