Great Galatic War

War that took place between March 21, 2009 to April 20, 2009. Obsidian Allied and Balance declared war on The Galaxy Federation in the form of a surprise attack (war declaration thread here: http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=12266764033&topic=7532).

The surprise attack called for teams of two players each from O*A and BAL to attack an elysium of TGF's, and then a select group of players would attack the remaining strongholds while the rest would guard their newly conquered and O*A elysiums. The attack resulted in mixed results; while the first wave was a success with very few losses, the overall objective of the attack failed in that the remaining strongholds fought off BAL and O*A attacks, and hence TGF was left with many Death Stars and a couple elysiums. Also accounting for MUZZIAH SCATTY joining TGF, the Federation made a significant comeback from their very early setbacks with these resources. Hence, the war became one of attrition, with all Death Stars being lost and planets and elysiums changing sides on both sides.

The war came to an end when O*A, through captured and made Death Star parts, created the Death Star Risa; this, in combination with a lack of sleep on both sides, led to a peace treaty. While officially there were no winners or losers of the conflict, O*A lent an elysium to TGF as war repairations, as they recognized themselves as aggressors of the conflict (peace treaty thread here: http://www.facebook.com/board.php?uid=12266764033#!/topic.php?uid=12266764033&topic=8000)
