《The Dark Times》Article 29 - Drawing the Lines - War report 4
Advertisement
As of yesterday, the two sides have ignited, and full-blown war is on the rise as they move into positions we will be getting an idea of how the war will progress. Will also use historic presidents to guess how it will proceed.
The first things we see with the two sides are securing their advantage the Werewolf clan have been clearing small towns and villages across the country, while the Vampires have been defending their city borders and food at the same time the food stocks inside the big cities.
If you look at the UK from above the vampires, own most of England, with London being the headquarters. With the Cornwall and Kent. mainly belongs to werewolf clans if you take out the more significant cities from the region.
The League almost completely controls Wales, the only to city within its borders have any form of resistance is Swansea and Cardiff.
It’s much the same in Scotland with Glasgow and Edinburgh being the strongholds, Northern Ireland with the vampiric stronghold in Belfast, with smaller resistances in Derry
It's a war of the countryside Vs the Cities. Looking at how past conflicts went with the werewolf holding the countryside and the vamps in the cities. Earlier conflicts to teach us what we’ll most likely see, the werewolves destroying some of the smaller towns most like only leaving the capital and perhaps Manchester, Leeds and Newcastle within the control of the vampire. At which point will see high loss from the over-eagerness and ferocity of the werewolves as they try and subdue the bigger cities. With those vast losses on both sides and with the League taking the most and in there hubris they'll be lead into an ambush in the small alleyways where their large and powerful bodies will be restricted. With the Houses taking full advantage of there slim and smaller frames to cause real damage.

Since the last conflict, we have seen the humans grow insanely fast with its population and technology, how will this affect the war.
With the camera’s everywhere it will be hard to keep our world hidden even with the ADI doing there best with the great filter over the internet their is always the possibilities that something will slip with through.
Portals and transport services have been suspended, by the council both sides now have to move about the country using their power or humanities. So there could easier access to cities than in the past with mean more places to hide many Housesso it'll be challenging to find them all or use them all. But it also means that the vampires have far better access to the countryside with satellites and road to track large groups of werewolves.
Then there’s the human factor, in this case, the willingness of human to join either faction with both sides having been depicted within movies for years the vampires seemed to of gotten the advantage as they are far more widespread if less sparkly and handsome as represented.
With these few point how do you see this war move, there are always other factors that could decide a war, but with the advances seen in humanity, our opinion is that the Vampire Houses will have the advantages. So with battle lines being drawn the countryside against the cities one playing the defensive the other offensively. You never know, tell us what you think within the comments below.
