The Battle of Minilet was a skirmish that began spontaneously shortly after the Sahren Civil War began between the Sahren Republican Guard and Regency-Junta loyalists. The city was left relatively undamaged due to the lack of artillery support from the Republican side.

Background

Partisan actions in Bastia had been relatively tame compared to Sahrland in the unstable years leading up to the conflict. Shortly after the beginning of the civil war Bastian aligned groups along with Sahren operatives took the chance to overthrow the government of Sahren-Nuvastia, which relied mostly on a small force of lesser trained local troops.

The race to the coast

A large Sahren-Nuvastian force quickly concentrated in Minilet to accumulate supplies shortly after the civil war began. Small detachments were left to slow down the Republicans advancing from both sides. Royal armed forces leadership realised that the best chance to succeed in this skirmish would be to force the enemy in modern trench warfare in the urban centre, and thereby grind him down in a war of attrition until reinforcements could arrive via sea. Hope that foreign powers may intervene was high for all sides, and By the 5th of Khelad Zokesia pledged support for the regency-junta regime just as Minilet was surrounded and Republicans began entering the city.

Entering the city

Sahren-Nuvastian command was split between pulling back to the ports and waiting for reinforcements or trying to hold the entire city. (nuvastian general name here) assessed that the lack of organization from the Republicans would be detrimental to urban warfare, and a lack of artillery support would cause the battle to devolve into modern trench warfare after only a short period of time. Homes were quickly seized and used as pillboxes.
