The climax to the war was on New Year's Day, with tensity and escalation occurring throughout the weeks before. Most of the fighting during this period was composed of a smear campaign, poaching[Writer's Note: May not be true, will do research] and minimal pvping, as Overclaim had not been added yet. | |||
On the Cascadian side, most of their actions composed of preparing their territory for Overclaim, now going significantly quicker through the process due to the war declaration. [Writer's Note: The rest of this paragraph is technically classified information despite it all happening a year and a half ago, I will go through the larp bullshit necessary to get it declassified] | |||
On the Wagner side, they were primarily focused on preparing for a campaign to overclaim Cascadia, planting Overclaim towns near vulnerable Cascadian towns and preparing existing invader towns such as Bakhmut to overclaim neighboring Cascadian towns. This is where one of the only two territorial successes on the side of Wagner happened, in which 8set sniped the town of Seaside, a section of what is now Astoria, which conveniently bordered the Cascadian capital of [[Olympia]]. Alongside this, they also lashed out with a massive smear campaign, accusing Cascadia, usually falsely. This was through a few fronts, one being accusing Cascadia of being a dictatorship, citing the October 2023 elections, in which they claimed [[SayerQT]] rigged it against Flatvent_One, though this was unfounded. Another was through accusing Cascadia of being a "scam nation" or "nation of scammers", citing primarily the Hanse Library Robbery, which had been committed by Cascadians. However though, the government had not been involved in the operation, and actively went through the efforts of getting as much of the stolen items back as they could. A last one was accusing Cascadia of being a pedophile ring, using the aforementioned false rumors from North_Paso. All three of these was used with mild to moderate success of temporarily damaging Cascadia's reputation. | |||

New Year's came to Fix's timezone at approximately 18:00 ET, however Overclaim would not be implemented for several hours. | |||
