Battle of Black Fire Pass
The Battle of Black Fire Pass occured in IC -1 and was the culmination of Sigmar's campaign to rid the lands of men from the Orcs and Goblins.
The battle itself was fought between the 12 tribes of men (each which would shortly after become a province) with an allied contingent of Dwarfs against possibly the largest horde of Greenskins ever gathered. The allied forces gathered in Black Fire Pass, at the point where the width of the pass was shortest therefore not allowing the Greenskins to use their numbers as an advantage. Sigmar showed immense personal bravery throughout the battle and slew not only the Orc Warlord but countless Greenskins with what is speculated to have been the power of Ulric infusing his body.
The victory at Black Fire Pass saw Sigmar's Empire created and the alliance between Men and Dwarfs solidified. It is therefore a pivotal event in the history of the World and arguably the most important battle to have ever took place in the Old World.
