The Battle of Perrinshlaw occurred from 3rd August 1900 to 25th August 1900 in Sadaler Occuppied Tanysira between the forces of Sadalen and the Tanysiran Rebels, later also those of the Associated Cities of Sheen. Battle was joined after the Sadaler forces forded a local river in order to try and establish a fortification on a nearby hillock. This was part of a larger effort to secure routes of transit through the Tanysiran interior and stop the easy movement of rebel forces throughout the theatre of operation.
