The Battle of Louisville was the first large-scale battle between the forces of the Oisinite Rebels and the Rozanian Loyalists. The battle began when Loyalist forces, backed primarily by the Rustlers, assaulted the Sedanian stronghold of Louisville in order to either take captive or kill Oisin Roza, the rebel leader. the Oisinite force, primarily backed by Sedanians and Savoyards, were positioned inside the main Sedanian Keep.

Prelude

Just a few Saint's Hours prior to the initiation of the Battle, the Sedanian forces had already raided and slaughtered a good portion of Rozanian citizens in the capital of Roza. Despite Oisin outright ordering for no Civilians to be harmed, the Loyalist population sought to place the blame on Oisin and mobilized their forces to attack and either capture or kill the rebel leader. Meanwhile, the Oisinite forces had already mobilized the defenses of the Sedanian capital of Louisville immediately following the mass slaughter a saint's hour prior. The Oisinite Army consisted of around 300 Oisinite Rozanians, 300 Savoyards, and 1,000 Sedanians. The Loyalist army consisted of about 400 Loyalist Rozanians and 1,000 Rustlers. With their armies prepared, the Loyalists marched to Louisville.
