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 in the region of Agrea. Used by the Imperial forces for its prominence over the border region, making it perfect for observation and listening posts, encircling Hill 451 was the first objective of the Prodavan offensive against Oliv. 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.

Hill 451 was defended by Sir Charles Woodhouse's Second Corps along with the Royal Fishersfield Regiment and a small security detachment of Pathfinders.
