    Since you are using plural i believe that you are referring to me and Hannibal.
    Let me guess either this:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Barnet

    OR this:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_tewkesbury
    Quem faz injúria vil e sem razão,Com forças e poder em que está posto,Não vence; que a vitória verdadeira É saber ter justiça nua e inteira-He who, solely to oppress,Employs or martial force, or power, achieves No victory; but a true victory Is gained,when justice triumphs and prevails.

    Hmm. Obviously the man is holding a Quran, so we are dealing with a Muslim country. Those soldiers have pectoral armor, so I would assume they are wearing mirror armor, indicating the Northern or far Eastern regions of the Arabic speaking world, probably between the 13th and 17th centuries.

    In other words, I have no ing clue. There were a lot of battles in the specified setting

    Yes, it looks like a battle somewhere in Transoxiana.

    Is any of the combatants Khwarezm? Unless you actually know where Transoxiana is.


    Edit: Sorry I doubted you, it's the siege of Kazan.

    Siege of Kazan, I should've thought of it earlier. It was actually the firsr thing that popped in my mind, but I wasn't sure of it.
