Editing 1305 - Battle of South Moundtop

'''Battle of South Moundtop (1305) '''is a duel scenario for both [[Wil Knights|Wil Knights']] and [[Gustave XIII|Gustave XIII's]] sides of the story in ''[[SaGa Frontier 2]]''.
==Gustave==
''"The armies of [[Fake Gustave]] and [[King David|Count David]] of [[Jade]] clash".''

After defeating [[Prince Charles|Count Charles]] of Jade, [[Fake Gustave]] has no problem rallying additional troops. One bye one, units from the neighbouring regions join his army. The regional Lords opposing Gustave, who have signed a provisional peace treaty, gather an allied army under the command of [[King David|David]], the new Count of Jade. This army marches towards [[Hahn Nova]], approaching from the north, south and west. Gustave confronts the primary force coming from the west while sending the troops leds by Bolse to intercept the weaker army coming from the north.

However, upon routing the northern units, Bolse gives pursuit despite Gustave's explicit orders not to. This delay's Bolse's return to Hahn Nova and prevents the armies combining to annihilate David's southern forces. Gustave has no choice but to oppose the invading army with what troops he has... Thus begins the Battle of South Moundtop in the early summer of 1305.


==Wil Knights==
This is a narrative persepctive concerning the battle. From its vantage point high on a rock, your paty watches the battle rage between [[Fake Gustave]] and [[King David|David]]. David's army seems to yield and has no chance of gaining reinforcements before the next day. Seeing this [[Gustaf]] decides to come to David's aid. Upon his return many hours later, Gustaf reports that he has not seen the imposter's corpse on the battlefield. The fake Gustave, his Edelritters and, of coure, the Egg have vanished. Once again it seems to be up to [[Wil Knights|Tycoon Wil]] to hunt for the Egg and save the world from evil.

+==Wil Knights==
+This is a narrative persepctive concerning the battle. From its vantage point high on a rock, your paty watches the battle rage between [[Fake Gustave]] and [[King David|David]].

-*Victory Conditions: Defeat [[Fake Gustave|Fake Gustave's]] forces, or, Hold out for 8 turns until the [[Laubholz]] army arrives
-*Defeat Conditions: Enemy penetrates your base (pink square), or, [[King David]] is defeated
-*Troops: [[King David]] unit, Infantry unit x5, Archer unit x2
-Gustave's troops are numerous and hard to kill, especially his steel knights. Position your archer units within a space of each infantry to give you a bonus 'arrow volley' at the start of each battle. While not the strongest attack, your units should use the Lawnmower skill (on one enemy), as this is both quick and can stun.
-The key is to defeat the outlying units as quickly as possible, then form all your remaining units into a barrier wall, preventing Gustave's troops reaching your headquarters. You are likely to lose each fight against his Steel Knights and be pushed back, but with strategically placed archers, you should be able to hold out for 8 turns.
