Battle of Edgeville

The Battle of Edgeville was a military engagement between Asgarnia and Misthalin.

Situation
During the war, the Asgarnian main goal was to seize control of Lumbridge and Draynor. The plot, however, involved taking Edgeville as it had access to the River Lum. 250 Falador Guards were sent on a suicidal mission to fight past a much larger group of Varrock Guards and capture the bank, as well as the canoe station.

The Faladian troops entered Edgeville through Barbarian Village, and engaged with 795 Varrock Guards (as well as 50 knights), led by Goth Icsian guarding the area.

Fighting
The Varrock Guards were set up in a tight flank and charged at the approaching Falador Guards. Colonel Popcorn ordered his small amount of troops to separate into three, forming two wide gaps, making the Varrock Guards fall into it, surrounding them. The center group however, was under a vast amount of pressure, and suffered moderate losses. Fortunately for Asgarnian forces, huge amounts of the Misthalin forces were being slaughtered due to Popcorn's tactic, as they moved northwards while enclosing themselves around the Misthalin forces. The Falador Guards eventually made it to the bank, in which they captured and thus took control of. The Misthalin forces were ordered to withdraw lest suffer anymore losses.

Aftermath
Asgarnia had control over Edgeville, and a foothold on the River Lum, meaning they could take Lumbridge next, forcing Misthalin to surrender and return trade to Asgarnia.
