Battle of Oceanside: Difference between revisions

Line 41:

Sometime shortly after 1:12 AM, July 4, the old town of Oceanside officially fell, and both sides began claiming the ruins. Cascadia began claiming from the north, while the RMF began claiming from a prepared siege town, named "Walla Walla", just off the northwest coast of Oceanside. During this stage of the battle, Covenhal, who had been described as "two-faced" by Cascadians during the RMF Wars, would distract North_Paso while WrestlingWithGod and BearHugBuddha claimed chunks. Some Cascadians have described this event as "The redemption of Covenhal". However, the RMF had more gold and players online at the beginning of the battle, allowing them to quickly claim north and block the Seaside push from reaching the sea and pushing south. By 1:15 AM, the town of Seaside had been completely cut off to its west. Meanwhile, in the southern part of Oceanside, shortly before 1:26 AM, Cascadia had formed a second town, named "Newport" in the southern part of Oceanside to stop the RMF from pushing south. The RMF responded by trying to push south before Cascadia could cut them off, while also creating a second town at the furthest southern point of Oceanside, named "Wailla Walla". However, by this time, Cascadia had raised more manpower and gold than the RMF had on-hand, and was able to move more quickly. By this point the race to claim the southern half of the former town had also become a PvP engagement, with Cascadian forces generally using harming pots and claim protections to counter the RMF's more experienced PvPers. It was also around this time that help from the RMF's ally of Texas, primarily for the Texan King North_Paso, arrived in Oceanside.

By 1:35 AM, both sides were fully focuses on claiming the south. Ultimately, thanks to the influx of support coming online to bring in gold and manpower, Cascadian forces managed to outflank the RMF, surrounding the town of Wailla Walla and cutting off the RMF push from the north. By 1:44 AM, Cascadian command had begun planning for offensives elsewhere, including in present-day Sullivan Bay and Haida, which were vulnerable to whatever the RMF's may have been. With the fallen area of ~~Ocanside~~ claimed, the focus on both sides became planning next moves and deciding the fate of their respective parts of the former town. Cascadia would begin planning future claiming of vulnerable areas and the rebuilding of infrastructure connecting to Oceanside, while the RMF began tearing down much of Oceanside's historic district, including, at 2:11 AM, burning down a large pride flag in northern Oceanside. Around 1:37 AM, Esti submitted an EMC support ticket reporting Wailla Walla for claimblocking. The report that was accepted by the mod team later that day, leading to Wailla Walla's deletion, and Cascadian control of the entire southern area of Oceanside, around 4:59 AM. A number of RMF players were also warned for proximity grief for their actions during the battle, including _sadpoo, North_Paso, DraftBust, and KillerVortexian. KillerVortexian would be banned for a time due to this being his third warn. These warnings/bans around the same time as Wailla Walla's deletion for claimblocking are considered the end of the battle.
