The Massacre on Midway (otherwise own as its earlier name, Ricky War) was fast paced and intensely violent conflict that occurred between Scæþing and the Magical Empire originally over land claims on Midway.
History
Heightened Tensions
Tensions began to mount when both Scæþing and the Magical Empire made claims on Midway, a valuable midpoint landmass between the nations. Villages were constructed and populated by both factions, with Scæþing specifically upgrading an old fort from the Scæþing Punitive War. These claims went seemingly unheeded and there was peace for a few days. Eventually, internal conflicts within the Scæþing Empire came to a head and the faction was teetering on the edge of a civil war. Jusipat made the decision to aim their rage outwards and began planning a war over the claims in Midway to subvert the internal conflict.
Whisperings of War and First Contact
Wikaros was informed of the internal conflicts within Scæþing and made an attempt to vote in an election there. When he arrived, he was killed, and was informed that Scæþing was planning on declaring war on the Magical Empire. A few hours passed with small bouts of violence between members of Scæþing, and members of the Magical Empire were informed of the impending conflict, namely baconpancakes36 and rice_fish. The original terms of the war were to attempt to be as non-destructive as possible, and to keep the conflict at Midway exclusively.
Scæþing Occupation of Midway
Forces from Southern Midway occupied the Magical Empire's city on Midway bloodlessly. bcfoss, Cflip_, jusipat and Kjolt947 then awaited possible counterattack from Magical Empire forces.
Massacre
Eventually, baconpancakes36 decided to join the server and use his blood magic "flight" to go on a scout run to Midway, where Scæþing was already waiting, with their hired man bcfoss and many land mines on the beaches surrounding the villages. Cflip spotted him landing on the roof of the church tower on the Magical Empire village and decided to shoot at him, landing a few hits, aggravating him to shoot back. Cflip was killed swiftly via bow and baconpancakes36 headed back to the Magical Empire to regroup and begin preparations. rice_fish went to Midway of his own accord and began fighting without informing his faction until a few minutes later. Saucy_Tacos and Wikaros began heading over to Midway while baconpancakes36 prepared a large amount of explosive charges. The Magical Empire arrived to Midway and began battle with Scæþing, namely Kjolt947, cflip, juspat, and mercenary bcfoss. baconpancakes36 quickly discovered his overwhelming gap in power over the opposing players and began killing all of them repeatedly, with the help of the others, effectively driving them off of Midway. Meanwhile, jusipat was enraged at baconpancakes36's overwhelming "godly" power, and headed over to the Magical Empire with the intention of messing with baconpancakes36's belongings. While battle began to die down at Midway, he headed to baconpancakes36's base and destroyed some things and hid his refined storage drives in a chest nearby. Soon after discovering Kjolt947 on the Magical Empire's soil, baconpancakes36 informed the faction that the conflict had extended beyond Midway, and chaos ensued. Both factions destroyed innumerable structures, with fire and explosives, notably: Saucy_Tacos's wooden house, baconpancakes36's base, Wikaros's base, many town buildings in Scæþing, Fort Scæþing, Kjolt947's house, and many others. baconpancakes36 would occasionally spot and hunt down members of Scæþing as he encountered them during his rampage. Eventually, talks of peace began to be discussed.
