Gnomes.

Very handy against ramps, siege engines and advancing troop blocs.

I imagine the elemental battles will escalate, with at least some of the Earthy heavies being held back to the very end. Defending the walls against Lunar gnomes will be a big thing.

I don't see a reason for too many powerful gnomes being about Whitewall. Can they be summoned?

And can w3 Umbroli (of which there will be no shortage) run interference/escort against Lunar elementals, leaving the gnomes to attack the engines/ramps/troops relatively unmolested?

Some grounders (on both sides) could be nasty.

We already mentioned a couple of Kev.

At least one earthquake could put a serious hole in the Lunar victory schedule. Not too near the walls though... Whoops!....

Rug throwers? Now **there's** a strong storyline. Rogue peaceweavers.

>What can the Ernaldans do for us?

Nice list!

• Care for surviving herds
• provide matchingmaking services for doomed heroes.
• prepare the bodies of the dead -arrange truces
• control ('calm') runaway moots
• Supporter types who can tip over siege machines.
• make lunar spear poles sprout greenery. Hold on, that's later!
