The Second Battle of New Tevetdale was a battle of the Second Imperial-Balionic War. The Imperial garrison of New Tevetdale, under the command of the Marquess of Tevetdale, fended off an assault on New Tevetdale by General Stanley P. Peck's Army of the Yellowback. Following the Battle of Greenfield Station, the main Imperial supply base at New Tevetdale (taken in April by Lord Richmond) was cut-off from Lord Richmond's field army by the overwhelming force of General Peck's Army of the Yellowback, the primary Union field army. Peck, a former state senator for New Ballaeter, turned his army back from its pursuit of Richmond to retake New Tevetdale, leaving the destruction of the Imperial field army to General G.H. Beauchamp's combined Balionic-Uratic force. This proved to be a disaster for the Union as New Tevetdale held out through four days of desperate fighting and Beauchamp's army was defeated by Richmond at the Battle of Williamsburg.
