Even compared to the great war between the Centaur Empire and the Night Elves, this was a bit more grand.
But unlike the two Black Gate battles or the battle of Ashenvale, this time, due to the complex terrain of the Wetlands, both armies were divided by rivers, swamps, and hills, scattering over a massive cross-section spanning hundreds of kilometers.
Armies from different kingdoms and clans were loosely connected, forming a long and uneven battle line.
As the two battle lines drew closer, fighting broke out as well.
First, there were small-scale clashes between both sides' aerial squadrons. Then, the cavalry units serving as scouts engaged in a series of pursuits, and soon after, the rapidly advancing infantry encountered their enemies.
Both sides' ranged forces started to exchange fire, and spellcasters bombarded the opponent's dense formations with various destructive magics.
