The initial Caphirian incursion during the Termian Wars in the 1600s marked a pivotal military episode characterized by strategic maneuvering and combat prowess. The Caphirian Army, comprising two legions, launched an amphibious assault with a formidable array of units at their disposal, including pikes, musketeers, mounted lancers, spontoons, halberds, and longbows. In response, the defending [[Huestes Reales]] of Pelaxia employed a tactically calculated organization of combined battalions. These units consisted of Pikemen, Rodeleros, heavy Halberdiers and crossbowmen, effectively countering the invading force with a mix of infantry suited for close combat and ranged engagements. | The initial Caphirian incursion during the Termian Wars in the 1600s marked a pivotal military episode characterized by strategic maneuvering and combat prowess.

The Caphirian legions gained initial ground by securing multiple outposts and moats, establishing a foothold in the Termian Delta. However, as the conflict progressed, the swampy terrain, initially perceived as advantageous, became a hindrance for both sides. The Caphirian Army's advance slowed significantly, and maneuvering within the marshes proved challenging. | The Caphirian legions gained initial ground by securing multiple outposts and moats, establishing a foothold in the Termian Delta.
