Battle of Yestanbul

The Battle of Yestanbul, also known as the Battle of Grogonia and Operation Equinox Dawn, was a large scale battle between the Empire of Astyllea and its allies against the breakaway state of Yestanbul, supported by Vereblock, Soleannen Empire (disputed) and an army composed primarily of mercenary bands. The Battle of Yestanbul was fought in the city of Grogonia and proved a major upset in favor of Yestanbul due to the skill of the hired mercenaries and disorganization of the Astyllean military.

Allegations of Spawn-Camping
Yestanbul mercenary Maynophobia violated universally recognized ethics of war in spawn camping the Astyllean forces, severely spiking the number of Astyllean casualties who were cut down upon spawning without being given a chance to escape or reequip themselves.
