The Battle of Oberndorf, 14th January, 2008
This was an epic battle fought between Fontan and her enemies Sirion and Old Rancagua. Fontan had captured Oberndorf from Sirion a few days earlier, cutting the route between East Continent/Ashforth and East Continent/Oligarch, and the northern alliance were eager to recapture the region. However the full might of Fontan opposed them.
The two opposing armies lined up at dawn, between them mustering the following forces:
| companies | infantry | mixed infantry | archers | cavalry | special forces | total | |
| Fontan | 56 | 1092 | 92 | 305 | 84 | 32 | 1605 |
| Sirion & Old Rancagua | 61 | 958 | 52 | 545 | 294 | 45 | 1894 |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sirion & Old Rancagua | Fontan | companies destroyed | companies retreated | wounded nobles | captured nobles | summary |

|
|
The allied ranks were disorganised with their archers mixed amongst their infantry line whilst Fontan deployed in good order, using their archers as a screen with some infantry support. Following a brief exchange of arrows the two amies advanced, the allied force overwhelming the Fontanian vanguard but losing much of the momentum of their attack. | ||
| 277 | 275 |
|
|
|
By this point the sky was thick with arrows and as the main infantry lines collided each other, their respective cavalry squadrons charged into the fray causing ferocious slaughter. The Imperial Cagilan Guard were in the thick of the fighting despite heavy fatigue caused by long hours the night before helping the engineers with repairs to Oberndorf's infrastructure. | |

The melee intensified but the Fontanese continued to hold back the onslaught. | |||

|
In the aftermath of the allied cavalry charge, and despite their heavy archery support, the Fontanian front line not only holds but breaks many of the companies attacking it. |
| 172 | 148 |
|
|
|
Elements of the Fontanian Order of the Thunder came under heavy pressure and the marshal's own bodyguard where cut down defending him. But the line still hold. | |
