After days of consideration, they come to the decision of using smaller, quicker armies of soldiers all specializing in a particular kind of weapon to settle the score permanently. The two generals war with each other for decades, but for all the battles that rage across the land, they cannot achieve victory. Years later, they both become military dictators of the fictional countries of Moronica (Chaos) and Viceria (Havoc).
