The 1st Legion of Riga destroys the Wolf force at Ogre.

Military action

This threat of invasion became a pivotal point in Riga’s history as the First Legion of Riga was created from the standing militia. Warriors came from all over the city state to enrol in this modern army. Rigan craftsmen quickly created the armour and weapons and a General was put in place to Command this Army. His name ‘Marcus Lucius Apostis’
As the wolves landed 10,000 men in Parna to the East of Riga destroying half the town. General Apostis marched his Legion of 4,000 men and 1,000 ancillaries made up of beast men and dwarves to the plains of Ogre.
When the two armies met the Rigans formed a square and allowed the barbaric wolves to fall upon the shield wall wave after wave. Although heavily outnumbered 2-1 the shield wall held and the unbreakable will of the Rigan legionnaires force the wolves back eventually routing them from the field and chasing them back to their boats.
