A Duel is a one-on-one fight that take place during battles. The opponents are usually higher ranked military officers such as Commanders, Generals, and etc. When a duel occurs, the rest of the armies' soldiers tend to not interfere, as such fights are beyond the common soldier's caliber. As expected, the outcome of a duel could very well affect the outcome of the battle itself.
