Asendavia: Difference between revisions

As the Coalition Army marched further into the mountains, King Gunnar's men continually ambushed their army, pushing rocks down slopes and firing arrows at the marching army only to slip away back into the mountains. Night raids were also a dailycommon occurrence for the Coalition Army, bands of Asendavian soldiers would ambush their camps, sabotage their supplies, and kill any men they could before once again slipping away into the night. By the time the CoalitionsCoalition's army reached King Gunnar's position, theyit werewas severelyquite weakened by the continual raids but still much larger than Gunnar's own forces. However, the night raids had given Gunnar ample time to improve his defences in Vernar Pass. The battle was now set to take place, the Coalition's now 12,000 man army versus Gunnar's 5,000 men defending Vernar Pass. Attempting to use its numerical superiority to its advantage, the Coalition Army rushed the Asendavian defences but were repelled thanks to the narrowness of the pass which prevented the Coalition from flanking Gunnar's army. In the first day of fighting, the Coalition lost over 800 men, while only 71 of Gunnar's men perished.
