(A) battlefields, at Dicores, so close was one of them to the actualfighting
-- wrong. Run-on sentence. "at Dicores" create ambiguity to which sentence it modifies.
(B) battlefields, one of them was at Dicores as close to the actualfighting
-- "as close" is wrong.We need "so close" to convey the proper meaning. Again,run-on sentence.
