That would be an interesting fight. Especially with Brocktree.
Dreams, dreams are untapped and writhing. How much more real are dreams than that paltry existence which we now call reality? How shall we ascend to that which humanity is destined? By mastering the dreamworld of course. That is how, my pupils, that is how.

This wouldn't necessarily take place in Mossflower country, but a naval battle between the Goreleech and the Greenshroud could be pretty cool.

ooooOOOOOoooohh a naval battle! Now that'd be something i'd want to see more of!!! The gorleech was huge, though and probably could win any naval fight it was in as long as the slaves didn't rebel while they were at it.

 The Greenshroud was equipped with crossbows though.

What if Ungatt Trunn and Verdauga Greeneyes met in battle, both in their primes and without soldiers to back them?

Well yes that's true but I want to know who would win in a battle!

 In a physical fight Ungatt would probably win, because he had more strength. In a battle of wits Verdauga would definitely win, because he was more clever.

Well, although we have a clear picture of Ungatt Trunn's capabilities in his prime, we don't know as much about Verdauga's. All of his recorded feats are in leadership and strategic acumen; I don't think it ever says anything about his personal combat ability, and whether he was considered stronger or weaker than his brother one-on-one. It isn't like Rakkety Tam where the horde members plainly say that they think Gulo would win; we have no way of adequately comparing their accomplishments. We don't even know of anybody that Verdauga personally fought or killed (Barkstripe died during the opening battle, but there's no evidence I can see that Verdauga personally killed him).

Ultimately, though, Ungatt Trunn is overconfident. Verdauga would know this better than anyone else, and would be able to exploit it. I'm not saying that it would be easy, but I think Verdauga has a good chance of carrying away a win from such a fight.

The Rouge crew vs. Captain Rakes column, that would be an interesting fight.
Also the location would be on an open field with no rivers nearby. :P

With no advantages. . . I like it! They were already competitive against each other in the books; it would be interesting to see them fight in true battle.

Welcome to the forum, Sandpaw! If you post in the Introduction Topic in the Front Lawns, you will be more properly greeted by the other members. :)

Welcome to the forum, LT! :)

I'd have to give that fight to Captain Rake's column if it were on an open field. The field of battle is where the Long Patrol fights best!

Perhaps if it were some rounded hills, then it'd be much more interesting. That way, neither would really be fighting in an environment that they're always trained for. That's not to say that the Long Patrol or Rogue Crew can't fight in a hilled environment, though. What I'm saying is that when you think Rogue Crew (or at least when I think Rogue Crew), you kind of picture them as Vikings in a way. When you think Long Patrol, you think of formal British Redcoats or something. You see where I'm coming from here? An open field is where the British Redcoats would always fight, and beaches and rough terrain is where you associate Vikings fighting (not 100% of the time, but when thinking broadly). So if you mix the two terrains together, you prevent both of them from having an environmental advantage. In this case, I'm not so sure who'd win.

I hope all of that made sense XD

I don't know...
I think the long patrol should probably have a terrain advantage since they number only one score while the rouge crew number three score.
That's a bit of a numerical advantage.
                        60>20
                  Maybe if they had the same numbers but I have faith in the long patrol.

Lord Brocktree v. Gorath the Flame. Would be interesting, even though they are on the same side. :P

Another cool navel battle would be Greenshroud v. Freebooter or Freebooter v. Goreleech.
