Description

The battle's proceeding just the way I wanted it. With their warriors nearly exhausted, I've sent in our cavalry.

What I wasn't expecting was ogres. Our knights are well-matched against the brutes, but they're going to need help.

I need you back on the field right away, <name>. Few can bring down an ogre on foot, but I think I can count on you. Don't disappoint me.

Rewards

You will receive: 80

Progress

There's still too many out there. Those knights need help.

Completion

Going toe to toe with ogres is impressive, <name>. I'm glad I've got soldiers like you out there.

Notes

Pick up Reinforcements Denied and Marking the Fallen before heading out. The battle has advanced phases. The corpses of footmen and warriors litter the ground, and the summoners and heavily-armored units of both sides are in play.
