"Thyself and Bhishma, and Karna and also Kripa, the victorious in war, Asvatthama, Vikarna, and also Bhurisrava, the son of Somadatta.

Yourself and Bhishma, Karna and Kripa, ever victorious in battle; Ashvatthama, Vikarna, and the son of Somadatta as well.

Duryodhana names his chief warriors, placing Drona first out of courtesy. Bhishma is the grandsire of both families and commander of the Kaurava army. Karna is Duryodhana's closest friend and a rival of Arjuna, unaware for most of his life that he is the Pandavas' elder brother. Kripa is the family preceptor. Ashvatthama is Drona's own son. Vikarna is a brother of Duryodhana known for speaking up for Draupadi when she was insulted. The son of Somadatta is Bhurishravas, a respected Kuru prince. Several of these men have deep ties to the Pandavas.
