The Battle of Tabulu was a major amphibious assault during The Great War. Kentalian Forces, in an attempt to gain control over the Paisi Ocean would attempt a large-scale amphibious assault on the Torvonese stronghold of Fort Ka'kua, in modern-day Tabulu. While Kentalian forces would be declared victorious, the operation is widely considered by historians to be one of the worst-executed naval operations in history. Over 7,000 Kentalians would either be wounded or killed during the landings, resulting in a casualty rate of roughly 45%.
