Skirmish on Xandore (Cruentusian War)

"Oh, my brothers. These Necasian fools believe that just because they have numbers and fancy weaponry they will defeat our cause. We will show them just why they should be scared of the dark."

- Fayyad Ghazi

The Skirmish on Xandore was a engagement of the Cruentusian War. It occured shortly after the fanatical militant group known as the Death's Tongue Militia created an elite team of warriors known as the Death's Knock Assassins, comprised of what the DTM's leaders considered to be their most skilled followers. Intent on testing their prowess, DTM commander Quia Xoan sent them to the world of Xandore, occupied by the Necasian Military, to weaken the forces there in preparation for a DTM raid. The DKA infiltrated a hydroelectic dam complex and destroyed it, and the resulting flood swamped a nearby Necasian base and its constituent forces. Weakened and disorientated, Necasian forces struggled to co-ordinate as DTM forces moved in and the DKA pulled out. The Necasians managed to claim victory by napalming the area from orbit, but at heavy cost. In any cost, the DTM was more than satisfied with the DKA's performance.
