The defenses of Beast Fort were like a pile of garbage. They didn't last an hour before the berserk players smashed them to pieces.
The fishmen faced an unstoppable defeat, but the players had good reason to be berserk. They'd been blessed by Vam, the War Mad, sure, but the foul aura surrounding Beast Fort also made them deeply uncomfortable. One look at the place made them want to crush the filthy stronghold.
This was clearly the effect of Chaos on the players' minds, but Murphy didn't interfere or rush to cleanse it right away.
A little mental stimulation wouldn't hinder the war effort. The corruption in the air wasn't even strong enough to get past the players' Sanity checks. And after seeing the shocking corruption and filth inside Beast Fort with their own eyes, they would gain a deeper understanding of the "righteous cause" they were fighting for.
The final fall of this fishman fortress began when Brigadier General Fraser's hunter squad took advantage of the players' assault on the city and assassinated the Dagon Chosen who served as chieftain amid the chaos. The war ended only after the Artist Squad and a group of Iron Barrels and their Boom Boom Boss planted a massive amount of explosives in the abyss at the very depths of Beast Fort, completely destroying the fishmen's spawning grounds.

They understood what made fishmen most dangerous and troublesome, and responded with targeted countermeasures. This also showed the players' incredible capacity to learn. They clearly weren't satisfied with their current level and were desperately eager to improve.
