The Civil War

**The Civil War** was a war between Team V and Aurora Empire. The name of the war was given due to the 2 factions being engaged in an alliance at the time, known as The New Alliance.

## History

At the end of May, tensions between the two groups were already rising. Team V-members were getting annoyed by the rise of the AE Army. They were upset about AE leaving the Alliance base and leaving Team V to do all of the work. Some Army members had already been killed, and they had griefed Fort Emperius after it was abandoned, but TheFat (Thanos Rock) didn't take action.

The war officially started on 28/05/2020. Storm attacked Perstix and Razok (\_TheFat\_) at spawn. They both logged and Storm trapped Perstix, but then Razok came back and broke the trap open, after which the fight continued within a small area. Michi games later got caught up in the fight because he was on an alt account at spawn while the two fought. He attempted to help Storm, but quickly died due to not being prepared or stacked, and since they were fighting in a small area, it came down to whoever out-geared the other. Storm (who used most of her e-gapps and lost all of her totems) logged, but ended up getting trapped, with AE members guarding the trap. Eventually, Michi came back onto his alt, with gear he obtained from Paul Oak, and broke the trap open. After Storm failed in her ambush, it was considered a war (officially declared by both teams as they were no longer able to trust one another).

At first, there was an abundance of trashtalking from both teams, causing the server to become very toxic, which many players disliked. Michi talked to Razok and apologized in the hope that the war would end. Thanos accepted his apology, but because no one really wanted to back out, the war kept going, though it was taken a lot less seriously, with much of the hated subsiding. However, some of the trashtalking continued, however it was mostly between 0Xed(Denied) and Razok.

On the second of June, Razok saw Michi on his alt at spawn and attacked. Michi knew he wasn't geared enough to win, so he attempted to fly away, but Razok followed him. Eventually, Michi logged off, so Razok made a trap. However, Michi suddenly rejoined and flew away, managing to escape.

In early June, AE closed End Spawn and tried to remove the things that were built after The Endparty to show that AE could not only do everything that Team V could do, could do it better. However, a lot of people found this stupid and stated that Razok was obsessed with Team V, not proving that AE was better because Team V had done most of the work a few months prior. Thanos invited people to the End, causing them to get killed via TNT-duper, but when Fauxreel invited MrEDok(who was on a non-perm alt), Edok was able to survive the duper and killed Razok and 8zi\_.

The final event of the **Civil War** was The InVursion. Team V had gotten "information" from an anonymous source that AE wanted to grief the highways, so they geared up and went to spawn. This turned out to be a hoax. Team V was now stacked at spawn, so they decided to work on the highways and take over spawn. After this, they also built Reunion Castle at spawn. Razok and SilentInterloper (another AE member) tried to stop them, though their efforts were proven unsuccessful. (they had griefed it once, but it not only got repaired, there was also a non-castle griefing treaty). Friends of AE, Including, Complexyz, and Provokator, killed many Team V players at the castle.

During the InVursion, the war officially came to an end, not only thanks to 8zi, who asked for peace, but also because most players had grown bored of the war, and considered it to be pointless. In the treaty, it stood that players from both groups could not kill members from the opposing team, nor try to stop projects started by the other team (like the InVursion). However, griefing bases were still allowed, which Team V displayed by griefing SigmaOverPi's base on the same day.

Officially, there was no winner or a loser, though a lot of players (including some of the first members) left AE because of them being opposed to war. Some members also left because they got bored of AE. Team V didn't suffer much from the war outside of members dying and losing stuff. The InVursion made them pretty popular and proven that the group was still relevant.
