World War IV

World War IV was a series of conflicts that evolved into an all-out war between the Garry's Mod Alliance Pact (GMAP), and the Orzel Republics, two of the alliances that survived World War III.
The war lasted for about three months at a very on and off-pace, with multiple rule-sets being thrown around, causing confusion on what was illegal and what wasn't. The war has essentially ended, with battles being sparsely fought. While both sides were under-prepared for the fighting that occurred, most battles were won by GMAP. Both sides have declared some kind of victory, but neither has admitted defeat.
==1-47 - ULSCI War==
On April 15th, 2021, Sovinia (SOVIN) had a joke civil war, where The 1-47 Union (1-47), United Legion of SCI (ULSCI), and Nationalistika Republika Kalestanija (NRK) sided with East SOVIN, while 12 Land (12L) sided with West SOVIN. ULSCI and 1-47 were currently in an alliance, called The Federation. When it formed, 1-47 were told they could leave at any time, and so during this fake civil war and another possible war with UNR, 1-47 decided to leave their alliance, which caused it to collapse. ULSCI did not hold their word and seeked revenge against 1-47 for leaving their alliance.
All powers involved in the fake civil war turned on 1-47. ULSCI and NRK invaded the server Friendly Garry's Mod Community, or FGC, which was 1-47's main server. Outsiders, mostly from FGC-based factions and some GMAP members, looking in saw this happening despite ULSCI's promise, and began assisting 1-47 in their war.
==Invasion of Super==
Around the same time, a completely different war was happening for entirely different reasons. ULSCI, SOVIN, and NRK invaded the Super Garry's Mod Server to fight against the Anti-Cringe Association (ACA), due to believing that they had relations with 1-47, and also because they were bored. This began around April 27th when ULSCI broke the existing non-aggression pact with ACA. ULSCI's reasoning for believing that ACA had 1-47 influence was due to 1-47 and ACA sharing one member.
Due to the attacks already happening on 1-47 now happening on on ACA, the group of people already helping 1-47 began to help ACA fight as well.
==War Breaks Out==
Although there are several factors involved in why this war broke out, including the harassing an underage female ACA member about her breast size, and an unconfirmed allegation of IP logging an ACA member, the straw that broke the camels back was Sergei, the leader of NRK, and Juls, a member of Izakia (IZK), harassing CatGopher98. On May 4th, Sergei joined CatGopher98's college Discord server, and began spamming CatGopher's real name claiming he said offensive phrases.
When confronted, it was justified with the fact that this information was publicly available and easily accessible. This justification was poor and resulted in the perpetrators, along with several people associating with them and people justifying their actions, being banned from a Discord server called the Faction Hub. The perpetrators were banned from Super Garry's Mod Server as well.
This resulted in a huge revival of the Garry's Mod Alliance Pact, with multiple factions agreeing that this behavior was unacceptable joining, and declaring war on NRK, the Imperial Alliance (IA), and all associates.
==Orzel's Return==
During the joke civil war in SOVIN, several old members of a previous alliance called Orzel decided to reform. The gears did not get in motion until after war had broke out, where the Imperial Alliance and Izakian forces joined their alliance. It is theorized that part of the reasoning for this name change was to abandon their old IA name due to how tarnished the name was in the community and among servers.
==Super Garrys Mod Server==
Further information: ACA - KRS War
On May 2nd, Orzel forces invaded Super due to ACA. This battle drug on for hours and ultimately resulted in an Orzel victory. This battle was documented in its entirety in a film produced by TVS and AZOV Media.https://youtu.be/NbMkJ7IkrcMhttps://youtu.be/78urW7yjoBk
On May 9th, a faction called the Kaiserreich of Super (KRS) was made and split off from ACA. Though they claimed to be peaceful towards ACA, they actually allied with ULSCI. Upon realizing this, ACA declared war on KRS. Battles would be commonly fought, and due to a lack of manpower, KRS took heavy losses. On the 10th, combined ACA and Horizon Combat Initiative (H.C.I) forces were victorious over KRS. The next day, ACA alone also defeated KRS. ACA, the Orivesi Federation (OF), and the 32nd Engineers Guild (ENG32) fought against KRS and The Turtle Nation (TTN), dominating them on the 14h.
The day after, ACA, OF, and ENG32 were able to defeat NRK and IZK scouts. However, later that day, many Orzel forces invaded Super while ACA was alone. Although the initial invasion was a major success on Orzel's part, ACA rallied its army and used mass assault tactics to turn the tide slowly. Both sides declared victory as a result of this, with ACA being able to remain on the server for the entirety of the battle while Orzel's K/D ratio was far superior. Orzel has also posted videos of this battle, but they were taken down by YouTube.On the 16th, the NRK leader, Supreme Dictator Jarckofakkad, went on Super to give ACA an ultimatum where if ACA removed a certain member who shared membership with 1-47, Orzel would stop invading Super. ACA found this to be unreasonable and declined. Immediately after, a battle ensued between the two parties, with C.G.I. joining the server to provide reinforcements for ACA while KRS and IZK came on to assist NRK. C.G.I. and ACA had a sizeable K/D advantage, and NRK, KRS, ULSCI, and SOVIN were forced to withdraw due to it being very late in the evening, giving GMAP forces a victory. On the 19th, C.G.I. and ACA noticed that Orzel forces were on Super. They joined to see highly inflated K/Ds from Orzel killing local players. With the help from the vast majority of local players, C.G.I. and ACA soldiers began killing off the invasion force until Orzel decided to break the rules and prop trap by spawning in large cubes and trapping players inside.https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/610050008422547486/848616238363967518/unknown.pnghttps://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/839738341132992512/844440575460900894/unknown.png In retaliation, a local player decided to prop trap back.https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/789584836339433475/848611889725833226/Screenshot_120.png Eventually, the remaining Orzel members got in airboats to escape prop trapping, though they remained in the boats and refused to fight well after the local player stopped prop trapping.https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/746013090834939914/847095950971502662/airboat.mp4 The battle concluded with a GMAP victory, with Orzel refusing to fight and leaving without explanation.
At this point of the war, most of the KRS members either defected back to ACA or were kicked out. After facing many losses and now a decrease in manpower, Vvninja held a vote on the 22nd to see if the few remaining members wanted to disband KRS. The vote went through, and Vvninja admitted defeat and disbanded KRS on the 24th. That same day, a video and document exposing Orzel were released. Orzel's Discord server was temporarily disabled. Orzel also agreed to stop invading Super and to leave ACA alone on the 25th.https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/846003367687225424/846805570400944198/unknown.png
==Colurful Crew==
Although 1-47 and ACA were on the defensive, immediately after the Sergei controversy, GMAP-aligned factions launched an invasion on Colurful Crew on May 6th. This ended in a GMAP victory, and Orzel had to withdraw forces from FGC and Super to focus on defending CC.https://youtu.be/KOxYP8KRPxU On the 8th, another battle occurred where GMAP was able to overwhelm Orzel and IZK forces, causing them to retreat to Apex Networks. A secondary group from GMAP deployed on Apex to chase them down, resulting in a total GMAP victory.https://youtu.be/gboAxTOyXkE After winning every single battle on CC, the server was shut down on the 16th due to a lack of donations. This left Orzel with one less home server.
===Rainbow Agent Incidents===
While Orzel members were building weaponry on Ilya's Slavetown, the Izakian home server, the Cerulean Task Force sent a crash bot to the server in an attempt to hamper their development without the knowledge of the rest of GMAP. The server immediately crashed the moment the bot spawned in, losing a decent amount of building progress. This incident was frowned upon and not approved by GMAP nations.
==Apex Networks==
With the realization that CC was going to be shut down soon, there was an influx of Orzel-aligned activity on Apex Networks, with them scouting out the server. On May 14th, a battle occurred though its outcome isn't known. When CC finally went down on May 16th, Orzel forces were forced to invade Apex since they didn't have many alternatives for their own home server. The battle that ensued on that day resulted in a GMAP victory over Orzel. Negotiations between GMAP and IZK were also held, where IZK agreed to go back to being neutral. However, IZK would continuously break this agreement, both directly and indirectly assisting Orzel. On the 17th, a skirmish occurred between GMAP and NRK, leaving GMAP victorious.https://youtu.be/5WBEFKDhmGg Another battle took place on the 27th, where GMAP won, despite Orzel using illegal ACF as some of their vehicles were overweight and other utilized ammo bombing. Contact between the two sides was little to none, and on June 28th, the Apex was closed.
==Orzel Treatment of ACA==
Over the course of the war, Orzel has repeatedly treated ACA and its members in deplorable ways. From raiding their Minecraft server to relentless obscene remarks and sexual harassment, ACA felt disgusted by the treatment they were receiving. On May 19th, three Sa'amathi Caliphate members, Kakz, X GONN, and Sourdough, invaded the ACA Minecraft server and obtained full diamond armor. The ACA leader, xenoscoot, was able to beat all three of them, even though the Sa'amathi forces were combat logging.https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/838259302720471050/847113217180041216/unknown.pnghttps://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/838259302720471050/847113351946567720/unknown.pnghttps://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/838259302720471050/847113494729588787/unknown.png Throughout the battle, they were making sexual remarks about xenoscoot and Elias. This raid later prompted CTF and NG to join the server and assist ACA in what was known as Operation MC-Hammerpants. The GMAP-aligned forces were able to grief Docterf's base on the 21st.https://youtu.be/iJ_QFikXckE Throughout the attempted raids, Orzel spammed offensive phrases and what seemed to be obscene threats.
Whenever Orzel forces were on Super, ACA members were met with much harassment. The first incident of this was when Sergei sexually harassed an underage ACA member. He and other Orzel members have, ever since then, justified their actions and continued to do similar things. It even reached the point where an NRK member had told Sergei not to keep messaging them, threatening a block due to the number of times he talked about her. Other ACA members oftentimes were the victim of many sexual and obscene comments, though Orzel has excused this as jokes and ACA being too sensitive.
==Orzel Grievances==
On May 24th, March and Captain Cancer released a video detailing many of the malicious actions done to the community over the course of the war, with input from Elias, CatGopher98, xenoscoot, and others. Not only did the video cover a surprisingly wide variety of issues with proper evidence, but the description also contained much of Orzel's Discord logs. A document listing all known Orzel infractions was also released by CatGopher98, with visual evidence. As a result of these issues being brought to light, ULSCI pulled out of the war, with Swat taking a break from the meta. Orzel also decided to pull out of Super and deleted their Discord server.
==Valen Sandbox==
With Colurful Crew gone, Orzel was forced to target GMAP's home servers, with Valen Sandbox being one of them. On May 26th, a skirmish happened where GMAP suffered two emplacement deaths. Orzel also killed Chazman twice while he was AFK. At least three Orzel contraptions were destroyed by New Germania (NG).https://www.dropbox.com/s/3e9vkzmmzjqvb7h/2021-05-26%2015-41-03.mp4?dl=0https://youtu.be/aRwCi7LFT5A Orzel also used a jet that had ACF-2 armor and an illegal seat that clipped into the armor. They also used stealth, which GMAP perceived as illegal. This is due to X GONN agreeing not to use it on behalf of Orzel during the beginning of the war. However, X never told the other Orzel leaders about this agreement.https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/831218943892521020/847225197038665768/image0.png Another GMAP victory was had on the 29th, where Orzel lost 1 CBM, 3 non-VTOL aircraft, 5 tanks, 5 emplacements, 3 VTOLs, and 1 unidentified contraption labeled as a duck.https://youtu.be/vaRFfaqemus Orzel also attempted to ammo bomb and put a roof over the entire map. GMAP only lost 2 emplacements, 2 helicopters, 1 being from NG, and 2 tanks. As with Apex Networks, fighting after this point was sparse as major fighting died off.
==Post-Leak Skirmishes==
Since the major leaking of the Orzel Discord, little activity and resistance from Orzel has been noted. There were occasional skirmishes on Valen Sandbox, each ending in GMAP victories or no contest due to Orzel resorting to server crashing or using illegal tech. There was a small war between NG and NRK that lasted two skirmishes, and ended in a victory for NG after they suffered 0 casualties in each battle. The last engagement with Orzel ended in the server crashing before either side took casualties. So far, the war has dwindled down significantly with no major battles being fought as of July 9th, 2021. This was exacerbated by the mass migration to DakTank, with very few Orzel member states remaining within the realm of ACF-3 and the war itself. Although there are instances of Orzel activity, like when a few of their members joined FGC, only to crash it and not rejoin afterwards on July 9th, it is generally accepted that the major fighting of the war is over, with a victory for GMAP and its allies. However, Orzel has not formally surrendered or capitulated.
=== Boneyard Skirmish ===
On July 13th, IZK and Jarck joined the Boneyard during an ACA, SGR, NG, and GC training session in an effort to stage a surprise attack. However, this invasion ultimately failed, with the attackers suffering 15-20 losses and GMAP-aligned forces losing only 2-3 infantry soldiers. IZK proceeded to crash the server. 2 IZK members from the raid would later go on FGC with hacked clients that enabled them to have aimbot, ESP, and a plethora of other exploits. They were promptly permabanned from the server.
