102nd "Red Foxes" Combined Military Forces

The 102nd "Red Foxes" Combined Military Forces (FOXCBM) was a faction, which is also an independent, unified military. It consists of ground, air, and naval forces.
== History ==
The Red Foxes was founded on the Simple Captain Icky's servers, eventually seeing combat for the first time. Along with the Server Defense Force (the predecessor of the United Legion of SCI), the Red Foxes came out strong after the SCI Summer War, where they defeated a minge group, with the defense force assimilating some of the leaders of the minges into its ranks, and the Red Foxes executed a successful recruiting campaign that gained a significant member base of around 50-60 members. The Red Foxes and the Server Defense Force's strong relationship contributed heavily to the formation of the Coalition, and later subsequent alliances between the Red Foxes, the Server Defense Force, and various other factions with similar interests.
In early 2018, a scout unit belonging to the Server Defense Force fired on troops of Cat-Gopher Industries (C.G.I.), where after their convoy was attacked by a machine gun nest, C.G.I. fought back and captured a base. What the scout unit had assumed was an organized group of minges were instead a new faction scouting out the server. The misunderstanding was cleared, and C.G.I. formed an alliance with FOXCBM and SDF and was even let in the Coalition. However, tensions began to rise again, mainly due to fears that C.G.I. wanted sole control of Simple Captain Icky's and worry of their non-indigenous nature. The Coalition declared war, after an officer within C.G.I., threatened to go to war with them. This led to FOXCBM initiating a preemptive strike, with the rest of the Coalition following suit, marking the start of the SCI War. In the early parts of the war, the war was largely a stalemate; C.G.I. forces were unable to hold large control with the contesting SDF, FOXCBM and allied partisans, as daily battles would occur, with the Coalition tracking and pushing forces to SCI each time any C.G.I. members were spotted. This however, would not last, at around this time, the leadership of SDF and FOXCBM were banned, due to crash attempts of SCI #1, the peak of a dispute between server staff, and group leaders, who were often discriminated against by the hostile ownership. With the command structure of both groups unable to coordinate effectively, the Coalition was pushed out of SCI, and failed a counteroffensive on UTC, C.G.I.'s home server. This loss was devastating for the Coalition, even after C.G.I. offered peace. FOXCBM and SDF were the only two surviving factions out of the five that were involved during the war. Following the conflict, FOXCBM and SDF tensions began to form, which exploded into the Coalition Civil War. However, the war was mostly an informational war, spies and Discord raids were the main form of combat, with only a few battles. After both sides realized that a hostile, outside entity had spurred tensions from both sides it ended in peace, and FOXCBM and SDF had a renewed relationship, which caused them to be confident enough to declare war on C.G.I. again.
After the Civil War, FOXCBM and SDF formed the Eagle Initiative (EI), after recognizing the need for a renewed alliance. However, in a fairly short time, a war was fought on SCI, in what was known as the EI - GMAP War. However, FOXCBM ceased all operations after a distaste at high levels in FOX for the underhanded tactics that both sides employed to gain advantages, and the group shut down. A few months later, a less serious group was started up, and The Black Sun (TBS) was created, a group that was made up of ex-FOXCBM members and officers. TBS and the SDF attempted to stop a continued incident on buuf's dank build where one of the GMAP leaders, Elias, stalked and followed both of their members onto this and other servers, even after repeated requests for this to end were ignored. Shortly after, Elias was banned from buufs, along with several leaders of EI. Shortly after this incident GMAP declared war on TBS. During this conflict with GMAP and EI the National Union of France (NUF) joined EI. Sovinia (SOVIN) and the Inner Sphere Alliance (ISA) joined GMAP's cause, which caused NUF to surrender. Eventually after stalemate and several tactical losses, TBS was shuttered (See TBS for more information), and GMAP would team up with EI but ultimately became inactive due to the second leader of GMAP, Elias, attempting to seize total power of the group. C.G.I. ceased combat with TBS upon its shuttering, and with TBS gone, FOX would see two small restarts, before its final shuttering in mid 2020.
