Title: A battle of attrition Post by: Dalamar on July 14, 2008, 01:46:01 pm Commanding officer: Hoagie Grayner, Sergeant
Attending officers: Octiovus, Baron of Cove Kelly Sanderson, Sergeant Graem Carser, Drill Corporal Attending guardsmen: Dalamar Carnesîr, Regular Scout Takeamada, Junior Grenadier Cassius Livius, Junior Guardsman Ludwik Bloodaxe, Watchman Go-Hei, Watchman Baolin, Recruit Raven, Recruit Captain Morana gave us order to weaken the Royalist forces in the Minoc area. Sergeant Grayner was ordered to lead the forces. Vesperian forces were also summoned for our aid in the upcoming battles. Sergeant Grayner gave us briefing for the battle and told us that the battle was planed to happen behind main lines to cut Yewians material supports. After the briefing we marched past Altmere towards territory of Yew. We met the Yewian forces at the river of Templewood.

Scouts were send to scout the positions and strength of Royalists and same time Corporal Carcer build up our rally point near the bridge. Scouts didn't bring good news, they told that there were numerous archers positioned behind the barricade and even one mage from the Skara Brae. Our situation was worse then we had expected. Sergeant Grayner launched our first attack against the barricade and Royalists. We were quickly pushed back, but we managed to weaken them seriously.

Our second attack went in same way as the first one but we managed to achieve our goal. We had weakened the Royalists and slowed down their supply caravans.
