The Coalition

Unaffiliated with the SCI Coalition
== Introduction ==
The Coalition is a clan originally developed by three people, including Scanty, in March of 2022. The Clan has been through numerous name alterations over the course of its' history, all of which circled back around to "Coalition". The Group has kept its' generic title relatively the same since then.

=== The Monolith Wars (3/12/22 - 3/16/22) ===
Scanty joined Super Garry's Mod Server to attempt to forge an alliance of factions, which failed spectacularly when two groups known as the Monolith and the Coalition began committing terrorist acts against him. Surprisingly, the Monolith and the Coalition turned against each other and agreed to help Scanty defeat the Monolith. After the Monolith surrendered due to being outnumbered and overpowered, Scanty agreed to join the Coalition. But in the following days, the Monolith leader would gaslight and manipulate Coalition members and try to turn them against each other. Eventually, Scanty had had enough and resumed the war with the Monolith. The Anti-Cringe Association [ACA] somehow got involved and cornered the Coalition Members. The Monolith eventually stopped showing up in Super, and the Old Coalition collapsed due to lack of members. It wasn't until April that Scanty would create a new clan which would go through numerous name changes eventually returning to the name "Coalition".

=== The War of the Skies (Early March 2022) ===
The Coalition created a Sky Base inspired by that of which was created by Pyro Detective. The Base was occasionally raided by random server members, but most of The Coalition's Members would protect this base during their online hours. Scanty would periodically vandalize the map below with Anti-ACA propaganda in an attempt to catch the attention of Anti-ACA parties. The increasing tension between the Coalition and ACA led Scanty to seek out foreign help which triggered the TTN War.

=== The TTN War / The 22-Day War (4/5/22 - 4/27/22) ===
The Coalition attempted negotiations with TTN in the mutual interest of freeing themselves from the threat ACA posed, but TTN's leader, Gopnik, became highly aggressive and unreasonable and declared war on The Coalition. After three weeks of fighting, The Coalition gained allies and prepared to launch a final major strike against TTN, but TTN was exposed for using illegal technology and were subsequently raided by The FDV Community. Due to TTN's home server being temporarily taken offline, and being ultimately outnumbered, it was clear they would no longer pose a threat and The Coalition claimed victory over the war.

=== The TMU incident (4/5/22) ===
TMU, unhappy that they had been alienated by The Coalition for Doxxing and DDoSing their enemies, declared war on them on the morning of April 5th. Scanty realized that all TMU would do was Doxx them, and immediately denied their war claim.
But later, things calmed down when The Coalition signed a Non-Agression Pact with TMU, and relations between The Coalition and TMU had remained amicable.
=== First ACA War (5/22/22 - 6/12/22) ===
From May all the way until September of 2022, The Coalition entered its' most difficult phase yet, which would later be known as the "Desolation Era". Morale in the group began to slowly deteriorate into lower and lower levels following the TTN War due to The Coalition having gotten widespread attention in the meta, most of which was bad. The ACA War was one of the incidents which exposed this morale shortage.
A Disagreement between Scanty and Xenoscooty, the leader of ACA, triggered a conflict which caused The Coalition to nearly collapse, but the group regained its' strength and fought back. ACA and The Coalition would fight each other twice, both sides abusing the other with commands and hack clients, and Rodent, The Coalition's resident anarcho-terrorist, would periodically grief the landscape of The Coalition's Minecraft Server with Fire Scrolls, stirring even more chaos. Afterwards, Scanty and Scooty agreed to have one final fair vanilla duel in Minecraft, but the server was hacked by the Alleged Co-Leader of Orzel, Arna, and The Coalition and ACA set their conflicts aside for the time being. However, this did not last long.

=== Second ACA War / The Cold War (6/18/22 - 7/9/22) ===
The Coalition declared war on the Orzel Federation in response to the hacking incident, and planned to use a Tank Export provided by STAMP, but Orzel quickly found out about The Coalition-STAMP Alliance, and, out of fear, STAMP Terminated their alliance, leaving The Coalition Co-Leader Scanty to upgrade the Tank by himself.
Scanty realized by having hacked the Minecraft Server, Orzel had set the precedent for Cold War, so The Coalition Leaders began bombarding Colorful Crew with lag devices as a demonstration foreshadowing the potential use of worse tactics. But after a day or two of this, it was discovered that the person responsible for hacking the Minecraft Server was no longer affiliated with Orzel, and the Cold Status of the War was dropped.
The conflict was then The Coalition and its' allies against ACA and YSR. It was then that The Coalition became aware of a new clan called The Crewment Association Clan [CAC] and forged an Alliance with them against ACA. Scanty had arranged two different battles with ACA and YSR, but he did not appear to either event due to irl complications, and the Coalition lost both conflicts. STAMP's Tank was not going to be much help, even with upgrades, which Scanty was unable to apply due to lack of required mods, so YSR lended a hand in constructing a tank for The Coalition to use against ACA in their final battle.
The Entire Coalition, all 100 members with the exception of Scanty, were offline during the battle, and ACA decided to have a 1v1 between Scanty and Demomann. They engaged in combat a total of Fifteen Times. Scanty won twice, and Demomann destroyed Scanty's tank the other thirteen, though two of the kills were gun kills which immobilized the tank and were promptly discounted. The Final Score was 11-2, which resulted in ACA Winning the Battle along with the entire rest of the war.
The Coalition may have failed, but during the war, they gained ACF Capability, and had begun multiple ACF/Wiremod Projects which could potentially make up for the Coalition's loss in the near future.

=== The STAMP Invasion (7/7/22) ===
The Coalition decided to exact revenge upon STAMP and prevent them from continuing their quest to annex the meta on the evening of July 7th, 2022. The battle was supposed to take place on Modrik, but Zan demanded that The Coalition and YSR join their server instead. Crisis, in no mood to argue and wanting to fight alone obviously, switched servers, and Scanty followed.
When the battle began, Scanty attempted to deploy an export given to them by STAMP prior to their betrayal to use against them as a joke, but was killed by a stray STAMP member before being able to activate the tank. Novic proceeded to troll STAMP by using a flying tank, which was illegal anyways, but Zan was using an illegal entity tracking robot AI. Novic asked STAMP to spawn a tank to check whether it was legal under FDV regulations, and it was indeed not, which prompted Scanty to deploy his infamous trolling dupe he had acquired from a player on Super, and had used to terrorize countless servers ever since.
He was kicked a couple times and then banned for 10 years instead of a permanent ban, then YSR left the server, and due to STAMP being unable to cooperate with FDV guidelines, The Coalition received its' first certifiable victory in months, thanks to YSR's assistance.

=== Secession & Return (7/22/22 / 8/13/22) ===
Scanty believed the Coalition wasn't really going anywhere since the majority of the group was inactive, but after a few weeks of planning and estimation, he decided to revive the Coalition in its' Fourth and Final Form along with a new paid and dedicated public sandbox server.
=== Weedbox Missile Crisis (August 2022) ===
Scanty discovered a peculiar group on Steam inhabited by several members of ACA, as well as other clans who often played Weedbox, ACA's home server. He suspected they would attempt to use "Nuclear Weapons" as an unfair advantage against other clans. Not understanding how this was conventionally possible, He believed these devices could be used against ACA's enemies, including the Coalition, and warned all parties involved not to pursue this project or else they would be inciting war, but he quickly found out they were to be used exclusively in Weedbox, and had otherwise failed, and decided to drop the whole matter.
=== Coalition-CSI Trolling War (First Week of August, 2022) ===
Scanty joined Sandbox Vanilla partly out of boredom and partly because he wanted to find alternative servers for the Coalition to orbit and recruit new members. Scanty was surprised to learn that CSI was present in this server, because he had never encountered them in the previous times he had visited the server. vvninja, the leader of CSI and a former Spy in the Coalition, declared that he did not approve of Scanty using his clan tag in the server, and threatened to bring his other members online if he did not remove it. In defiance, Scanty refused this warning and attacked the server population while waiting for the rest of CSI to show up to fight, which took several minutes. He randomly decided to challenge a specific member to a 1v1 knife fight, which Scanty almost won, until an unrelated player killed him with an RPG.
The next time Scanty joined SV, he spotted Joe Psychosis, better known as Brain Scorcher, the former leader and sole member of the Monolith, one of the Coalition's oldest rivals which they conquered and chased off of Super Garry's Mod Server months prior. His mouse died mid-fight and he scrambled across his bedroom to find an adequate charger to use and returned to the game. He decided to deploy his signature trolling device, but it did not work as intended. Though there was some lag, the dupe was frozen in mid-air due to a server setting that froze props in place until moved with a Physgun.
Scanty's third visit to CSI was more eventful, as he along with Brooklyn and another recruit were present on the server, but in the process of waiting to see if anyone else would join, everyone remained in spawn fooling around. Scanty tried to have a 1v1 Knife Fight outside of spawn with a CSI member and was immediately sniped by Raizer, who blatantly dismissed the 1v1. Scanty called them out for cheating and left. He jokingly claimed 'victory' knowing that the incident was too boring and pathetic to even count as a battle, and was mostly concentrated in the spawn barrier. But this was one of the first battles that more than one Coalition member participated in for some time. Scanty was well aware of the deteriorating morale drop in his group, and since other clans were flaming him for it, he took advantage of this and used it to start arguments with other people to troll them.
Eventually, CAC managed to sign a Non-Aggression Pact between CSI and The Coalition/CAC, and the entire string of incidents was overlooked by both parties.
Several days later, Scanty was banned from SV for having attempted to use the Lag Dupe in a previous battle during the war long after it had taken place.
=== The Nutcracker Conspiracy (8/1/22 - 8/17/22) ===
The Conspiracy began right at the start of August of 2022 immediately following the last recorded battle of SV but before the N-AP was signed with CSI. ACA joined the Coalition's Discord server in an attempt to persuade the staff into betraying Scanty to join them. Brooklyn took advantage of this by pretending to ally with ACA, restarting the Sesa-Imperian Empire, and excluding Scanty to make this more convincing. Over the course of the following 2 1/2 Weeks, Brooklyn would learn of all ACA's secrets regarding the Coalition, and also learned that Dimitri had indeed doxxed Scanty without knowing he had a VPN, seriously damaging the Coalition/TMU Treaty of Non-Aggression. The Coalition would continue to regain its' strength even more, having been aided by their successful infiltration of ACA.
=== Operation Kite (8/21/22) ===
Tensions between ACA and TTN seemed to rise again for reasons unknown, Scanty was not involved in the overall battle, however he was present after the battle while some TTN and ACA soldiers were still in the server continuing the mayhem.
Mass Chaos ensued even after the battle, involving Flag Spamming, TTN's Race Track, and Coalition Air Strike Dupes, and evidence of TTN using an Illegal (or excessively bruteforce) Wiremod apparatus throughout much of the event.
The Coalition, ACA, and TTN seemed to have established a Hate Triangle, similar to the previous one between The Coalition, ACA and The Monolith.
=== Second TTN War (8/29/22 - 9/12/22) ===
Due to the Coalition's N-AP with TTN having been violated shortly before Operation Kite, members of the Coalition retaliated in force.
====First Battle ====
Three Coalition Members in addition to Slayker joined ThatSandboxServer and were immediately Spawn-Camped by TTN forces for much of the entire battle, and also resorted to using Automatic Explosives and Turrets. Due to TTN having instituted cheating, The Coalition began using excessive weapons in response, ironically provoking complaints from TTN. TTN had superior K/D and superior numbers, but due to them having cheated the entire battle, a victory on their end was completely nullified and handed over to Coalition.
====Second Battle====
TTN, after finally establishing War Ethics and agreeing to stop Spawn-Camping, set up separate bases on their server for each team to set their spawns in. But after a few minutes of fighting, the bases vanished. Some TTN members still Spawn-Killed a few times, but mostly obeyed the Regulations. A few regulars also used Air Strike Dupes and Wiremod Tanks and were promptly kicked from the server. The Battle lasted roughly 45-60 Minutes and resulted in a fair victory for The Coalition by K/D (500-492).
==== Third Battle ====
The Third Battle was a major flop on behalf of The Coalition due to Scanty being in a Low-Internet Zone and not many other than him and Madhawks showing up to fight, so the battle was postponed until the following day.
==== Fourth Battle (Final) ====
The Coalition appeared about an Hour before the Final Battle was supposed to take place. They had around three people, including Scanty, they trained before the battle, had suit battery stockpiles, were evenly matched, and had numerous warnings about the battle long before it even began, yet when TTN arrived, The Coalition's Defensive Line seriously crumbled with Slayker resorting to cheating, and Madhawks being unskilled and inexperienced and eventually being removed from The Coalition. TTN ultimately won the battle, and the war, but given that both groups agreed to ignore each other after the war, this meant very little to Scanty. He decided to spend some time getting The Coalition back in order.
=== Merge into UGMF ===
Around September of 2022, Scanty encountered Noahplayzgaming along with a handful of other people and brought them together under a New Flag. Scanty felt as though consuming them in The Coalition would invalidate their history, so he decided to rename the group Untitled Garry's Mod Faction [UGMF].
