Battle of the Little Climb

The Kratoth Legion was deployed:

The Fourth Imperial Body under the Command of General Dath Pagon. Under him were four Chest Commanders and their units:

• First Chest led by Ivo Pelene.

• Second Chest led by Vitrion the Naked.

• Third Chest led by Leon the Lazy.

• Fourth Chest led by Dath Durge

To the West on the Forternian side, the human Expeditionnary Army split into two along the hill :

• The South wing led by Crown Prince Clovis de Fortern.

• The North wing led by Lance Valeure.

The Baltath Hills, also known as the "Cleaver Hills", were the grounds of most of the conflict. First concerned were its southern parts adjacent to the Tropha Road and its small plains. Second and lastly came the central region of the Hills with war-torn forts being occupied by the manouevering Forternian army to withstand an Imperial assault from the plains to their east.

Dath Pagon defending his strategy/quote]
  The first engagement occurred between the garrisoned forces of the Tropha Road attempting to stop the invaders long enough for the Legion to arrive. An overwhelming advance from the Human side breached the fortifications easily enough.

The second occured when the Fourth Imperial Body manage to cut off the road from the East, forcing the Prince-led army to retreat after a few frontal skirmishes with results in Imperial favour. The Kingdom forces decided to actually climb north as their exit route per Général Estofar's advices.

The third and final engagement occured after the Kingdom's forces managed to retreat north to fortify a new advantageous position on Baltath Hills proper. Intense battle ensued with Dath Pagon forcing a global offensive despite the terrain. A costly victory for the Empire, but a victory nonetheless.
