Battle of Greyhampton

The Battle of Greyhampton (22 December 625 K.C.) marked the next phase of the Pirate King's War, a conflict waged between the Kingdom of Stormwind and the South Seas Confederacy. The battle took place near a coastal town known as Greyhampton, situated in the south-west of Westfall. After a failed invasion of Duskwood, the Confederacy turned their attention to the incredibly volatile region of Westfall in the hopes of garnering support from the disillusioned populace and using the vast coasts as a viable means of supporting a land campaign in the realm.

A hastily erected defense, spearheaded by the First Regiment of Westridge, attempted to hold off the landing forces. However, by the end of the day, the landing beach was claimed and the Confederacy were able to establish a firm foothold on the coast. Local militia hailing from Greyhampton itself betrayed the Crown, encircling royalist forces and forcing the remaining forces still loyal to Stormwind to flee in a mass rout.
