In 1807, a large band of 500 Maori warriors from the Ngapuhi band are on the move, planning to attack their hated rivals the Ngati Whatua. The rivalry between the two clans runs deep, going back years to a fish harvest gone wrong. Now, as the Ngapuhi march nearer and nearer to the the village of their enemy, they hope that their new muskets- freshly acquired from European traders- will make the decisive difference in their upcoming attack.
But the Ngati Whatua have been alerted that an attack is on the way, and have set an ambush for their longtime foes amidst the tall grass and trees of the New Zealand coast. What happens next will set the stage for a the bloodiest conflict in New Zealand history: The Maori Musket Wars.
