I (a berserker) through many a glorious battle previously, was the leader of the Crab army at Beiden Pass. We were prepared to blow the opposing army out of the water, we had archers lining the pass, a larger force, and a whole legion of berserkers. At the beginning of the battle, an enemy commander rode over to taunt us into surrendering. I called his bluff, and gave him a few insults of my own. He challenged me to a duel, and I cut in half both him and his horse in a single blow. That's always good for morale.As the battle began, our army was in good shape. We brought down a few legions of theirs with minimal losses. When they finally brought in their heavy calvary, we filled the pass with our troops and ordered the archers to fire.  The archers did so, but on OUR army. I suspected treachery, but there was no time to falter. My army was breaking up, so I had to immediately bolster them. I (the general) hopped off my horse, unsheathed my no-dachi, and made a charge into the midst of the enemy, hacking down dozens of crane.  i then rolled my Battle skill, which is a single open-ended d10, adding 6. I rolled an 87. This single-handedly turned the tide for my army, and I became a living legend in less than a minute.-nameless</blockquote>
