The Yogs are relentless if anything, so I'll give them that, but with their shift in strategy to take pages out of history and employ methods from well-known battles, they soon found out in November that after hours of useless attempts to take us down, their only choice was to retreat. Seems they are also challenged to interpret these battles to the degree that they are of any use to them.
Case in point ... Charge of the Light Brigade was a lost battle because of faulty orders and sending troops to the wrong location. It was total devastation and defeat, just like it was for the Yogs as they marched onto the battlefield in the South Crater in November with their own version of Charge of the Yog Light Brigade.
Well guess what? I've learned that the Yogs will be attempting to up their game once again as they take to the battlefield in the South Crater on Dec 16th, and this time, they're looking to the historic Battle of Waterloo for their offensive approach. They have even found themselves their own Napoleon Bonaparte. I have warned the community many times about the Esoteric Order of Dagon and how their leader, Lee Negated Dokken, will stop at nothing to cause chaos across Monria.
The fact that this order has recently become active on Monria gives rise to a real threat that Dagon is not far behind, and that one day we may be dealing with a darkness that we haven't encountered yet. We need to be vigilant in meeting these challenges to keep the darkness suppressed. If the Deep Ones surface from the City of R'lyeh where Cthulhu lies in a death-like sleep dreaming, we will be dealing with a level of nightmarish hell that we most likely won't be prepared for.
That aside, I can't help but think that the Yogs only read bits and pieces of these historic battles, and don't fully understand their dynamics, nor that well-planned strategies don't always work. I also doubt that they know that the Battle of Waterloo is synonymous with defeat. The battle started about noon on June 18, 1815 and ended that evening with Napoleon's army retreating. Napoleon was known as the God of War as a result of the Napoleonic Wars between 1803-1815, and because the defeat that occurred at Waterloo was so significant, it seems that when an unstoppable individual, or force, or movement is defeated, it is said to have "met its Waterloo."
It's time to show the Yogs that their historic battle strategies are flawed, and that marching onto the battlefield in the South Crater once again will only cause them to meet their Waterloo.
