Reflection

Eldrian simply stayed where he was. He watched as the soldiers at Tier 5 and above who would normally be captains of a squad at the minimum, rushed into the front lines. 

How those who normally led, were now just another soldier. And how only those at Tier 7 and above had the right to form a squad. Though, for the most part, things were too chaotic for them to actually manage this properly. 

At most, the captains would pick a commander or general they are acquainted with and follow them. Partly to try and maintain some semblance of military order, but mostly in the hopes of avoiding death. 

Death in such a large chaotic battle with the forces nearly equal is likely, with resurrection for obvious reasons being rare if not outright impossible. However, added onto this, each person's death might also add to the undeads numbers. Making it all the more frightening.
