Scenario Description

This all-or-nothing battle takes place only two days after the crushing defeat of Baron B_____ in Scenario 3. The time is early afternoon.

Baron A______’s triumphant forces have been able to call forth two additional units of [men-at-arms] in order to harry and hound the invading army of Baron B_____ and protect their homeland.

The forces of Baron A_____ have sent out guides and messengers to villages on the Borderland, calling forth the banners of the local Lords. This hasty recruitment yields two additional units of basic warriors for the army.

The Scouts of Army A_____ were able to follow the trail of the fleeing forces of B_____, leading A_____’s forces to one last encounter with the foe.

As the contingent of Army B_____ marches into the Badlands to confront Army A_____ they discover that A_____ has been digging in, with makeshift defenses partially completed.
