The situation on the battlefield did not clearly favor either side.
But for the virus mechanical civilization, that was the greatest disadvantage of all!
After nearly twenty Virus Mechanical Great Lords descended in person, they still had not dealt with this vanguard force of the new mechanical civilization.

Quite a few mortal enemies would be more than happy to kick them while they were down.
