The **Bloomfield Campaign** was name given to the non-declared war in the area of Bloomfield Arizona during the multiple conflicts and escalations in 2283.

## Background

When the development of the region increased through the expedition of the Narkum Brotherhood from Texas merging with some elements of the California Brotherhood. Other groups followed including an outpost of Robert House. Seeing the potential the Chicago Federal Remnants (Chicago Enclave) saw fit to establish operations in the region as well at Yuma Proving Grounds under the command of General Hayden Trench.

Within the first few weeks. The groups had established a semblance of knowledge of each other. The Brotherhood had suspicion that the Federal Remnants (Enclave) were in the area when they captured Jeremias Klink but made a blunder by releasing him and eventually their location, leader, and size were made known to the Federal Remnants.

After that initial exchange the prospects of war were made when the Federal Remnants exploited tensions within the Brotherhood of Steel using their radio program Chicago Federal Radio.

## Battles

### The Bunker Civil Incursion

Tensions between two different ideologies within the Brotherhood of Steel blew up and resulted in the Bunker Civil Incursion inside the Brotherhood of Steel's bunker where elements from the Narkum Faction and of the Massey Faction fought within the bunker. Upon Star Paladin Gray Gear's mercy, the Massey faction were allowed to leave the Bunker and head for the abandoned trainstation. One item of dispute was the damage to the armory within the Brotherhood of Steel bunker. The Massey faction claimed that the bomb was detonated from the Narkum faction, and the Narkum faction believes the alternative. While the facts are debated, the evidence and motives behind destroying the armory would point to the Massey faction having conducted it. After hastily leaving the Bunker, the forces continued to fight one another till the resolution which was drafted by Elder Luci Narkum and Star Paladin Grey Gears for the Narkum Faction, Senior Paladin Chloe Massey and Morales for the Massey Faction, and Jeremias Klink and Chloe Harrenhal as third party representatives at the Paradise Casino which divided the Brotherhood for the rest of the conflict.

### The Elder's Plot

Devised by Jeremias Klink. The Narkum Faction of the Brotherhood iterated a call on all radio devices for any and all to serve their cause. Using this, Jeremias conjured a plan to use men clad in T-51b power armor as bait for the Elder while the Elder went unaccompanied to the Paradise Casino. The plan was initiated however didn't go as planned when Jeremias got shot in the leg by Chloe Harrenhal and sent back to Chicago. Elder Narkum was however disregarded as Elder soon after the Incident. Making the second in command into the New Elder.

### The Yuma Proving Grounds Coup

While Elder Narkum was no longer in charge of the Brotherhood. She used her remaining influence to persuade a faction of unloyal Federal Remnants who wanted to distance themselves from leadership into a coup. Without the influence of Jeremias Klink and a stagnant force who was biding their time. The eccentric disloyal troops mounted a mutiny against General Hayden Trench. The new appointed General Catherine Alvarez who was the wife of the disloyal faction leader, Ramerio Alvarez. Catherine and Ramerio embarked on a new frontier of ideology that incorporated their new Enclave as a de-facto "Brotherhood of Steel but in Black" as Jeremias Klink called it. They would be entirely welcoming of the politics of the New California Republic and Brotherhood as well in several treaties. Giving up the entirety of the sovereign right of the United States to govern these territories. The treaties were also signed without any mention to Congress in Chicago nor President Daniel Parker.

### Self-Destruction of YPG

In late 2283, the Establishment of the new Enclave under the command of General Alvarez was not well received by Chicago for their lack of communications and failure to submit to the President's authority. Chicago had iterated it's demands for the whereabouts of the former General Hayden Trench as well as for the enlistment of a new commanding officer appointed by the President. However these were rejected. Jeremias Klinkwas sent back, reconnecting with Hayden Trench, and rescuing the loyalist Federal Remnants before the Chicago authorized a self destruct sequence that was initiated by Hayden Trench. All remaining assets of the Chicago expedition were moved back to Great Midwest Commonwealth.
