"PULL BACK FROM THE CENTER!"
The Ashen Tide General commanded.
"PULL BACK DAMMIT!!
OR I WILL KILL YOU PERSONALLY!!!"
He screamed and the Ashen Tide, as unorganized and rogue as they were—
With their General outright threatening them—
They pulled back despite all the fun they were having crushing heads. Their movements weren't smooth, but it was enough.
The forward pressure eased, and the Ironclad Dominion reacted instantly.
The Ironclad Dominion reacted instantly, their constructs surged forward and their shields closed in, exactly as the little girl predicted.
"They're committing,"
The General commented.
The girl nodded lightly, then, she smiled.
"Good."
Her gaze moved again.
"Left flank, make them move behind the ridge. Tell them not to attack yet."
She spoke.
And the General ordered as he was commanded—
"LEFT FLANK! MOVE BEHIND THE RIDGE! DON'T ATTACK YET!"
"But we have an opening—"
Someone tried to counter but—
"DO AS I SAID!"
