       0.01: Dain rides forward on his boar. For some reason he has not
       sent any skirmishers out.
       0.35: He sees the Elven army and retreats, dodging a few arrows.
       0.57: Dain rejoins his army of Dwarves from the Iron Hills.
       1.03: The Dwarven cavalry charge around the pikemen—Dwarves
       armed with spears, riding huge goats. Why Dain thinks a cavalry
       charge into a strong force of archers and spearmen is a good
       idea is unknown.
       1.14: The Elven archers are idiotically deployed in front of the
       spearmen! They see the goat-riders and prepare to fire. They
       wait until the Dwarves are almost on top of them.
       1.22: They somehow barely get a few shots in before they're
       trampled and destroyed by the wave of goats.
       1.27: The spearmen of the Elves move forward to meet the Dwarven
       advance, but do not lower their spears.
       1.32: The Dwarves somehow smash right through the spearmen at
       first. They are eventually stopped. Serves them right for
       running right into spears.
       1.33: The Dwarven pikemen finally advance. Dain leads them.
       1.37: Finally a good idea—the Dwarves lower their pikes and form
       a loose phalanx. The Elves do the same.
       1.47: Thranduil leads his soldiers in a huge charge on the
       Dwarven left, but they slow down, weakening their attack. None
       protect their king, who is brought down by the Dwarves.
       1.59: Neither side moves now—they appear to be too scared.
       2.01: "To be continued" appears on the screen.
