The battle of Dharmandi was a skirmish between the Babkhan mercenaries hired and led by [[Ardashir|Baron Ardashir I of Elwynn]] and a force of mounted Paladins sent to reconnoitre after rumours of an invasion force landing in the proximity of what would become the city of [[Vijayanagara]]. Although disorganised, surprised and lacking in heavy weapons, the battle confirmed the superiority of regular infantry riflemen over armoured cavalry and warlocks of the Raikothlin Paladins. | |||

The battle of Dharmandi was a skirmish between the Babkhan mercenaries hired and led by Baron Ardashir I of Elwynn and a force of mounted Paladins sent to reconnoitre after rumours of an invasion force landing in the proximity of what would become the city of Vijayanagara. Although disorganised, surprised and lacking in heavy weapons, the battle confirmed the superiority of regular infantry riflemen over armoured cavalry and warlocks of the Raikothlin Paladins.
