Arcana & Vorrak
Vorrak
Arcana, I've been thinking about how hidden knowledge can swing a battle. How do you see secrets and esoteric truths fitting into a commander’s plan?
Arcana
Secrets are the unseen arrows that find their mark before the first shout; a commander who knows the shadows can bend the battlefield to his will, while the others only feel the wind.
Vorrak
Yes, but secrets only work if we can use them. I’d like a step‑by‑step path to turn that intel into a winning move.
Arcana
1. Gather the intel quietly, making sure no one traces the trail back to you.
2. Verify the truth of each piece; a rumor is useless if it blows up in your face.
3. Translate the data into a tactical advantage – think: surprise attack, flank, or feint.
4. Keep the plan hidden from everyone else; only the people who need to know should see it.
5. Act when the enemy’s eyes are turned elsewhere, and let the secret do the heavy lifting.
Vorrak
Solid steps, but remember—if anyone learns of the secret before the strike, the plan crumbles. Stay tight on those details.
