Prelude
Major Confrontations

- 1638:
- The Norlandic host engages the host of Imperial remnants outside the city of Adelburg, easily defeating them at the Battle of the Bloody Road.
- 1639:
- The Norlandic victory permitted them to siege the city of Adelburg, not knowing that the city had fallen to the newly established Kingdom of Renatus just a few years prior. Upon hearing of their mistake, King Javier lifted the siege and marched his forces back to Norland.
- Clashes between pagans within the Kingdom of Santegia and the Order of Saint Lucien, in which Lord Demetrios Palaiologos was murdered, cause King Leo I to exile Canonist clergy and denounce High Pontiff Everard IV.

- The Axionite Coalition is silently disbanded.
- The Crusaders take the offensive, marching their combined hosts out from the city of Adelburg. They meet the Norlanders in combat once more on the bloody road, resulting in a decisive victory for the Crusaders in the Battle of Rochdale, leaving Norland open for further attacks.
- King Leo I and High Pontiff Everard IV agree upon peace terms, resulting in the Kingdom of Santegia acknowledging Canonism as their state religion and joining the Crusade against Norland.
- King Javier I abdicates to his son, Prince Jevan.
- 1641:
- The Crusader host encircles the Norlandic capital of Vjorhelm, Siege of Vjorhelm.
