Heh, since you said you were Man and fought against Abysia, it's not hard to guess that you lost this battle...

Abysians have phenomenal staying power, so I'm be tempted to go for them, but for the fact that Man is good with cloud spells, deadly against slow moving heavy troops.
Not only Man has Cloud spells, but Abysia has them, too. Lots of Fire Clouds, which the Abysians are immune against, would help to clear up the front lines, and the heavy infantery can take a few hits without problems. It seems as if Abysia has used that spell that grants Abysians increased Heat aura, so everybody that they go against in melee would be quite weakened from the fatigue and the fire clouds. I guess the battle was decided by the morale check after 50% loss or 75% loss of troops, then.

Thanks a lot for the replied, I will wait for a few more and then I will post the results, but I will give clues in the mean time. Be warned that the clues are true but maybe there is no relation between them and the outcome.

Spoiler warning: magic beings number at start: Man: 61, Abysia: 0; commanders at start: Man: 19, Abysia: 8. Guess how many remained.

If Man cast Howl late into the battle, it could really mess up Abysia's unguarded caster line.

Yeah, probably should've had guards, but Man hadn't used Howl in previous fights, nor did they use it here.

It was very tight. I couldn't tell who would win until the rout, looked very much like it could've gone either way.
