The Battle of Rubern was the final major skirmish of The Rubern War in which Orenian forces led by Captain Peter d'Arkent & Sir Octavian Vimmark-Roussard engaged a growing alliance force on the eastern borders of The Empire. The battle lasted for approximately two hours & gained The Holy Orenian Empire a decisive victory over The Alliance of Independent States.
Prelude
Since the start of the Rubern War, defensive military outposts dotted the roads of the Orenian countryside. Seldom were the towers used & coming into the year 1755, a new base of operations for the Orenian cavalry brigade was planned to replace one of these inefficient structures. Demolishonists & engineers began work in the spring of 1756. Word of the construction project soon reached the ears of the A.I.S which prompted them to begin mobilizing. As Alliance troops moved to Rubern to rally, an Orenian engineer spotted a unit of Suffonain scouts & alerted the Imperial State Army. An Orenian Cavalry unit was swiftly deployed to the location of the construction site to evacuate the engineers back to Helena. During this time, Al-Faiz answered the alliance call & sent two-hundred archers to reinforce the growing A.I.S force. Meanwhile, Oren was able to rally one thousand-two hundred soldiers to combat the enemy force. On the eve of the 15th of Owyn's Flame, the two armies met on the ruberni highway & clashed.
