The Battle of Hill 451 was a major engagement of the Prodavan War taking place during the Prodavan Oliv Offensive. Hill 451 was a major strategic point for the Imperial Army which used it as a listening post. Initially defended only by a single infantry battalion, the hill came to be defended by 19,000 Imperial troops under General Sir Sir Charles Woodhouse against 33,000 encircling Prodavans under General Rasseed Salahe.
