    Disaster / Destruction

    After months of preparing and key assassinations to the leaders of the Goblin Hoards, the forces have seemed to only grow in numbers. New information suggests combat boars and wolves being held at the dens as well as sightings of hob-goblins. Not wanting to allow this to continue both the leaders of Melg and Dawnfall combine forces and attempt a first strike with the goal to whittle there numbers and intimidate the goblins. After killing many smaller goblins they were concerned that no advanced forces were shown on the mountainside but the casualties on the goblins side far outweighed the deaths on the allies' side. With near 100 goblins dead the army returns home assuming they got there message across.
