The forces from Wetham brace as they prepare to defend their ongoing takeover.
The region owner (rogue) and their allies attack the takeover forces.
The (rogue) troops attack because they are at war with Wetham.

Strong winds and gusts are making ranged combat a game of luck.
Even though there is a fortification nearby, neither attackers nor defenders are able to make use of it, so the battlefield is in the open.
