The Fall of Brionne was a major battle fought during the War in France and while it destroyed the city of Brionne it also shattered the military strength of the eastern Orc push causing them to not be able to push into the Valley of Lucerne.
It was Florentin Suchet III. that would be captured alongside most of his leadership cohort at the end of the battle and with the capture of Florentin and most of his leadership group the resistence against the Babyeater Clan all but ended.
The Fall of Brionne would come during the mid part of the War in France as the Orcish invasion pushed past the Orleans region and moved westward towards the valley of Lucerne, and the first incursions into the region were pushed back by the defense of the Elves of Quel'Thalas, but as the Elves were forced to retreat within their forest the Brionne region came under threat. Brionne would finally be breached after the Senegal Army of Arvad Donnonid arrived at the siege and using large siege machines they destroyed the main gatehouse o f the castle allowing the massed Orc troops to overwhelm the defenses and take control of the town.
