Vytautas the Great after the battle: "This is only the beginning."

Following one of the largest battles of the Middle Ages in Europe, Grand Duke Vytautas the Great of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was spotted near the burial site of the fallen enemy. Captured in a remarkable moment, the ruler, dressed in authentic late 14th–early 15th century military attire, calmly poses beside a freshly prepared grave while the aftermath of the battle is still unfolding around him.

According to eyewitnesses, the combined forces of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Poland achieved a crushing victory today over the Teutonic Order. The battle, which lasted nearly the entire day, ended with the destruction of the Order's army and the deaths of many of its senior commanders.

Pausing briefly after the battle, Vytautas is said to have remarked:

„Patch 1410: Teutonic Order nerfed, GG WP, EZ.“


Historians predict that this victory will reshape the balance of power in Central and Eastern Europe for generations and significantly strengthen the international standing of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.

Although most soldiers have already begun collecting weapons and burying the fallen, military commanders warn that isolated Teutonic units may still be scattered throughout the surrounding countryside.
