All of a sudden, we were now facing pitched battles every single hour. I think there was ONE fight that had low-level people. We were now outclassed in most fights and pulled a victory by sheer force of will.
It was this situation that spawned the questions. I trust Sol's experience, and based on his answers to me, I think he's right. (If you want to reproduce the Q&A here from our PMs, that's fine with me.) :)
