:The Raiding Wars
The Raiding Wars, also known as The Cicatrix War, included The Republic of Helvanthar assisted by The_Rebellion, versus town of Cicatrix. The war was initiated on October 15th and ended the following day, with mayor LittleBlackout's surrender, due to numerous onslaughts, bottlenecks, and massacres for both sides.
Rising Action
An initial attack by raiders of Cicatrix on Lakeville Cove started what would soon become a bitter relationship between the two entities. The two political heads Android24557 and LittleBlackout soon came to a treaty of sorts in which Android deterred Cicatrix from raiding a Helvanthian town by suggestions of possible war. Little then made it clear that, seeing as how many active towns were in Helvanthar, war would be inevitable.
The War
The war was officially declared when Cicatrixian raiders cleared out the new town of Sonrah, that Helvanthar had just taken under its wing, the only prevalent commander to pull the army in defence of sonrah was Spammuff, but upon the approach, he was slain and combat ensued. LittleBlackout expressed his embarrassment when he stated that he did not know it was a Helvanthian town at the time. Android consulted Blackout, seeing if he really wanted to continue the war that had already started to which Blackout replied: "It's inevitable." Android understood the reply as a full calling for war, and sent troops to attack the nether portal of Cicatrix. In the mean time, most Helvanthian towns were on lock-down with an impenetrable defense.
The battles taking place in the nether were actually found on a series of old trade tunnels but were destroyed in the process, seeing as how many land mines were implanted into the roads, by one of the Helvantharian commander's Spammuff, and the battles, were lead by many town in the Helvantharian, nation such as, LakeVille Cove, The_Perfect, Canterlot, and Sunset Alley with constant communication between the nation being upheld, one of the methods that was adapted by the commander Spammuff with the use of tunnels leading around and behind the main route, in-case there was a need to double loop behind, to kill the enemy, and this seemed to work a treat, as most towns were overstocked with the spoils of war.
In-town battles, did occur, on many moments but towns in Helvanthar nation, were quick to defend each other, and the bulk of the in-town battles were won by Helvathar, such as the Lakeville Cove Attack, which was lead by LittleBlackout, but was countered by Canterlot lead by Spammuff and Partyars, or their attack on The_Perfect which was countered by Canterlot lead by Spammuff and Lakeville Cove lead by Saera
Tactics
Cat and mouse- Within the nether, what was played out, is one of the great war tactics called the cat and mouse situation, where the war was played inside many long windy tunnels, where one 'Cat' would pull his prey into the tunnel, leading into the other 'cats' who would be tactically positioned in the tunnel, Cicatrix were the first to use this tactic, but when the war became more intense, it turned into a massacre, with Canterlot leading the charges.
Bottleneck- Within the nether, many tunnels were made to funnel troops from both sides into a small space of fighting, where only one side would have the advantage, Cicatrix optimised this method firstly, but after a charge, from Canterlot under the call of Android24557, the Helvantharian army aided by The_Rebellion pushed the Cicatrixian warriors back to their portal, where they bottlenecked them through the use of a door.
The End of the War
The end of war, was a result of many efforts from Helvanthar. Some of which include Helvanthar commander Spammuff, and his constant counter attacks, and defensive techniques on the Nation's towns. And some of which from the Helvanthar commander XCellX, and his position of lock-down on the Cicatrix portal, making Nether attacks inevitable. The war continued until Cicatrix was trapped inside their base, with leader Android24557, and commander Spammuff, outside the main entrance. While commander XCellX, and many others including Yottabyte, Djfuzz, Guthrie0, Crashlander04, and Saera, held the nether on lockdown. Thus resulting in the end of the war.
