They are eight look-alikes brothers.

We cannot mount a great attack
Unless we somehow reach the back

We have a unique travel style
Sir, may I ride with you awhile?

We don't get in each other's way
Since on our own colour we stay

We start the clash on either side
Beware, our reach is far and wide

Her varied moves make her scary
All around her should be wary

Most important among the crew
If he falls, your struggle is through

What are we?

Let us say there are two natural numbers "L" and "R".
We performed eight operations on these two numbers as

Step-1: L = R
Step-2: L x L = R x L
Step-3: L^2 - R^2 = LR - R^2
Step-4: (L + R)( L - R) = R(L - R)
Step-5: L + R = R
Step-6: R + R = R
Step-7: 2R = R
Step- 8: 2 = 1
