                                                    Cortesian regular reserves arrive

                                                     Cortesian militia cross a hill
                                                  Cortesian militia take position behind a wall.
                                           Lionian irregulars


                        Lionian cannon. The crew have killed an ostrich which will be tonight's meal - if they survive the battle.
                                                 fortified by the presence of a priest
                                     A mixed bunch of Lionians, Some of them are actually from the Fezian empire.
                              Dismounted mounted Cortesian infantry fire at enemy archers on the other side of Lake Collwoola.
                                    Irregular Lionian riflemen take up positions. To the left are Lionian shield and spear men.
                                                    Lionian regular infantry.
                                            Lionian positions

                                                   Cortesian mounted infantry
                                          Cortesian militia
                                                 Lionian archers

                                                        The Cortesian advance is  limited by the lake.
The battle has so far been one of attrition with the Lionians making good use of their rifle armed troops. So far there have been no crazed charged by sword and spear armed tribesmen.
