The Portuguese aid the Abyssinians at Birtarin

Located far to the north of the German assault at Tamayya, the Abyssinians are faced with a Taureg assault, where months earlier, the present Raj saw his father butchered by the 'Blue Men'

The Raj (seen on roof left of center), and a Portuguese explorer (seen on roof to right of center) prepare their defense

Two more Portuguese (on roof to right) planning on selling their lives dearly

The first Taureg get over the wall

They also take the first house

But the Abyssinians fight back and destroy the first Taureg to have climbed their wall

The brave militia is overwhelmed at the gate

Now the Taureg expand their attack along another wall

The Abyssinians prepare

More Taureg get over the wall and drop the first Portuguese, but are met by heavy fire

The Taureg secondary assault carries the gate and first house

Exchanging fire with militia in another house

The Taureg are beginning to fall back!

The last Taureg within Birtarin are shot down

The Portuguese have made staunch friends
