Save for [[Clan Wolf]], the majority of the Clans once again anticipated an easy battle and swift victory. However Focht had not been idle during his time with them and had correctly predicted that the Clan style of fighting favored short battles with little concern towards any ability to withstand a long term engagement. Planning his defense carefully, Focht stockpiled enough stores to supply his troops for more than a month and ordered his forces to harass the Clans, rather than commit to a direct confrontation. Despite their relative inexperience and heavy losses, the Com Guards slowly wore the Clans down, and after 21 days of bitter fighting had won the battle. + The actual battle was broken down into ComGuard-defended objectives that the Clans would try to conquer.
