war of the dwarves and elves!

Just to keep things going, we send another fifty thousand frisbees flying into the Elvish camp. Each is coated with an extremely slippery lubricant, making them almost impossible to hold on to (we launched them from catapults, not by hand); so picking them up will take a LONG time.
 
The Elves cover the ground under their camp with a layer of dirt, thus raising their camp to a higher level and, in the process, burying the frisbees.
 
Fine, but it will have to take a long time, because part of the dirt will actually slide in various directions when dumped onto the frisbees.
 
So? Elves are immortal. They have all the time they'll ever need. *baby Elf sucks thumb*
 
While the Elves are taking their time dealing with the super-slippery frisbees, the Dwarves work on various defensive preparations. Whatever is the next attack the Elves try, our preparations will retroactively be precisely designed for THAT attack.

Isn't that a little too convenient?
 
So what if it is? Your side claims to have kittens which somehow can ALWAYS manage to steal things, and that's an OFFENSIVE advantage. We're merely claiming a DEFENSIVE advantage on our home turf. If you argue about that, I may start calling you sissy again. :p

Do my kittens ever manage to steal things? Hardly ever and what if I throw sticks at you? Would you be prepared for that? How can you even be prepared if I DO throw sticks at you? Because they never do anything except hit stuff so how can you be prepared because its always going to hit something so how can you have defense against it if the purpose of me throwing them is to hit something?
 
The new Dwarf defense system could only fend off all attacks if it was created one way--created a cement dome over, under, and around their entire camp. Enclosed inside the concrete ball of their own making, the Dwarves are stuck, with the Elves sitting happily outside the concrete ball and waiting for the Dwarves to get hungry enough to come out. (For the ball to go under the Dwarves without rolling them to pieces, it is embedded deep in the ground and cannot roll to smash the happily waiting Elves.) *baby Elf eats its first lembas*
 
Since Glenburne was paying no attention to what I really said--a defense not against ALL attacks at once, but retroactively against THE particular attack which would come next--I am entitled to make a dictation of HER actions no greater than her dictation of mine, by saying that she also was paying no attention to OTHER things. Thus, we have slipped past her undetected, while she was deluding herself about this nonexistent concrete ball, and we have stolen all the tents in the Elf camp.
 
I was paying attention; I didn't say that you needed to defend against all attacks at once. But for you to be ready for whatever our next attack is, unless Dwarves can see the future, you would have to be prepared for any assault, no matter what it is. The cement sphere is the only thing I can think of that would protect you from all of our possible assaults. If you can think of a better defense mechanism, go for it. Unless, of course, Gandalf or someone will be supplying you with magic that will adapt to fend off whatever we throw at you; but you didn't mention any wizards.

And if the Dwarves are outside of their cement ball, they can't very well defend against our next attack, whatever it is, can they?

*baby Elf spits up all over the tent thieves*

No, we didn't have to be ready for every conceivable thing; we had a bit of time technology to make us retroactively ready for THE next thing. That being the latest spit-up, we instantly evaporate the spit-up with ultrasonic vibrations. As for the toasters, no time technology is needed; we simply choke them with cram.
