Eon 818 - Blitz Battle of the A’as Forest

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

It was a quick and decisive battle in here the attacking MindTech forces were ahead of their opposition by a colossal margin.

First of all, Minds prepared greatly for this battle, and attacked A’as Forest from three sides simultaneously, almost trapping the opposing Silvan and Cybernetics’ troops in the process.

Secondly, Minds were able to secure contracts with both Fighters’ Guild and Cloudy Operatives to further increase their numbers.

Lastly, Delta Collective - who are currently considered to have the strongest army on the Island - once again proved to be a reliable ally and provided them with the necessary support.

As a result, the battle was decided in a matter of hours - the attackers had vastly superior force, and the battle was finished quickly.

Eon 810 - Grinding Battle of Peace Death Gorge

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective

In this battle, factions (especially Deltans) fought for every inch of the land in the Peace Death Gorge to reclaim it.

The Delta Collective had done a lot of preparations and had a lot of experience in the area, so they were able to get the early lean which only grew as the battle moved forward.

In fact, the force with which the Deltans fought here made the other factions’ efforts pale in comparison - the Delta Collective is estimated to have gathered a bigger army than all four other factions combined.

Such an immense force was not only able to secure this land, but also made the people across the Island talk about the current balance of power and its meaning for future battles.

Eon 802 - Military Exercise in the Dev Null Marsh

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective

Factions are conducting a military exercise in the Dev Null Marsh in the wake of the upcoming CR Restoration Project in nearby Peace Death Gorge and to prepare for future Corruption outbreaks.

The Delta Collective wins the exercise, showing the best coordination and tactics.

Shortly after the exercise, the factions complete back-to-back all three necessary CR Restoration Project stages and the land is announced to be free from corruption.

With that, the full restoration is far from over as such notable places as Volcanic Jacuzzi and Jurassic Part were heavily damaged and still in need of attention.

Eon 793 - The Mourning of Peace Death Gorge

⚔️ Battle won by Corruption

Despite all the preparation and the effort, a long period of factions being able to contain the thread of Corruption has ended.

Peace Death Gorge is uninhabitable, and the Deltans are forced to evacuate the population.

Many people suffered exposure to Corruption and are being hastily transported to the CURE facilities for treatment.

Due to continuous suppression of Corruption, this fallout seems to be much more violent and factions are not able to initiate the Containment phase of CR Restoration Project for a long time.

As, sadly, became a routine procedure - Bank of Zeithalt reinstates its restrictive policies on the Island’s economy.

Eon 779 - Cloudy Operative is founded

⌛ Event

After eons of preparations, the founders of the Cloudy Operatives finally finish the process of establishing their new faction.

The faction is founded by the three former MindTech Institute Masters - Bumps, Shaxx and CrAEX, joined by a Silvan You and a sellswords Eldar and Revalx.

The new faction is able to negotiate a deal with MindTech regarding the Timeless Desert and now has it under their control.

The goal of the Cloudy Operatives is claimed to be the focus on the development of the Desert and its resources, as well as trade and economic prosperity.

In their founding accords, the new faction vows not to take interest in any lands outside the Desert with the goal of achieving neutrality with other factions.

Eon 778 - The 3rd Outbreak in Synaxos Fields

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute (combined faction forces)

After the previous war and the tension it caused between the factions, the defense of Synaxos Fields promised to be hard.

There even were rumors of intentional sabotage against MindTech Institute efforts.

The fact that the faction had been suppressing Corruption for several battles in a row did not help either.

However, the factions were able to gather a strong united force to aid MindTech Institute in the defense and avoid the global disaster.

Eon 768 - Hesitant Battle of Peace Death Gorge

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective

Without question, this battle turned out to be quite predictable and uneventful.

First off, Cybernetics Inc could only attack one Deltan land - Peace Death Gorge.

For that reason, all Deltan forces were concentrated in that region, giving Deltans the great advantage that they managed to keep for the entirety of the battle.

All allies were predictable too - same as for many battles prior, MindTech Institute were on Deltans side, while Protectores Silva supported Cybers’ attack.

However, what granted the battle its name - is the hesitance and drama CI reportedly had with rumored preparation for attacking the Timeless Desert - and the attack on it being called off at the last moment with Cybers changing their minds about it several times.

It’s said, that what made them to change their minds in the end was the promised creation of a new faction in the Timeless Desert, and that the battle there could’ve undermined their peaceful separation process from MindTech Institute.

However, there were no official statements about this from any faction neither during nor after the battle.

Eon 766 - PS rebuilds capital in Cerene Vale

⌛ Event

Following the Burning of Cerene Vale, the subsequent changes in MindTech Institute and the exchange of lands, Protectores Silva begin rebuilding their capital in Cerene Vale.

With that, comes a logical conclusion of the MT-PS war.

The result of this war seems to be Protectores Silva losing a couple of their lands and having to rebuild their capital.

Cybernetics Inc, lost Dev Null Marsh back to Deltans.

MindTech Institute were able to reclaim one of their lands at a high cost of losing vast amounts of resources and ended up with a new government to navigate the political situation they put themselves in.

Delta Collective are the main benefactors of the war after reclaiming Ares Garden and squeezing out Silvans from the Imperial Swamp without major changes in their inner and outer politics.

But is it really the end of the war? Or is it just the beginning of a new chapter?

Eon 762 - DC and PS exchange lands

📅 Event

Delta Collective and Protectores Silva exchange lands upon their mutual agreement:

• Imperial Swamp is now under control of Delta Collective;
• Mt. Pickles is now under control of Protectores Silva.

Eon 761 - MT and PS exchange lands

📅 Event

MindTech Institute and Protectores Silva exchange lands upon their mutual agreement:

• Cerene Vale is now under control of Protectores Silva;
• Oblivion Mire is now under control of MindTech Institute.

Eon 759 - The Festive Battle on the Marshes

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective

During the holidays celebrated across the Island, but not in the Deltan lands, the Delta Collective launch enormous and unexpected attack on Cybernetics Inc in Dev Null Marsh.

The Cybers are caught completely off guard.

Their defences in the region are crippled by the very first strike, and even their allies Silvans - being worn down and demoralized by their own recent losses - are unable to gather an army to come to the aid.

As the result, Deltans glide through this battle with almost no resistance and reclaim the land that once belonged to them.

The second-best army on the battlefield was surprisingly the MindTech Institute, who were able to put up a good effort towards DC victory, despite the turbulent times their faction goes through.

The fact that this battle happened during the holiday season granted it a special name - The Festive Battle on the Marshes.

Eon 755 - Council of Minds is restored in MT

⌛ Event

Following the blatant and brutal Burning of Cerene Vale, the Loki’s fall and simultaneous restoration of democratic institutes in MindTech begin.

At the same time as democratic and inclusive elections are announces in MindTech Institute, the former tyrant leader is detained and held captive in Prefrenial Prefect, awaiting a trial.

The elections result in a landslide victory for CuriousDino, who immediately assumes office as the MT Head of State and reestablishes the Council of Minds as the governing body of MindTech.

Following eons become very busy for the newfound government: the new government structure is approved by the absolute majority of the Council; several cross-faction proposals are put forward and voted on; Loki is transferred to Protectores Silva for trial.

While from the outside of the faction these changes are barely noticeable and the faction still struggles to find understanding from other factions, the internal changes seem to be drastic and ambitious.

Which begs the ultimate question - will it start a new, more peaceful era for MindTech, or will it collapse back into the war and destruction yet again?

Eon 749 - The Burning of Cerene Vale

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

A devastating loss for Protectores Silva results in them having to flee their own capital, as it goes up in flames from the approaching Minds army attacks.

The MT dictator Loki stops at nothing to get his revenge on the Protectors for what he calls a betrayal.

It’s a second ever successful siege of a capital, and the first one where the attacking army decides to burn the city to the ground.

Historians will remember this event as the Burning of Cerene Vale, and estimate that it might bear the same significance for the whole island as Siege of Neuropolis (eon 384) and the Disaster of Synaxos Fields (eon 508).

When the ash settles and the smoke clears, will the Minds army march on to their next target?

Or will the Silvans be able to regroup and fight back?

Whichever way it goes, at the moment it seems the only way forward is through even more bloodshed and destruction.

Eon 740 - The Battle Of Corrupted Mountain

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective (combined faction forces)

As it happened many times previously, the existential threat of Corruption is able to unite factions - even if temporarily - to fend off the greater danger.

We see it happen again this time - despite an ongoing war between the Minds and Deltans on one side and Silvans with Cybers on the other.

It was a long an enduring battle through the night, however the factions were able to hold their ground and push back the Corruption.

Notably, Delta Collective had the strongest army on the battlefield, being almost equal to the combined forces of three other factions.

Eon 733 - The Frantic Battle over A’as Forest

⚔️ Battle won by Protectores Silva

This battle was long anticipated by both sides, but Loki took his time to strike at an unexpected time and in an unexpected place…

However, Protectores Silva were ready for that: they had their defenses distributed equally over their lands, and A’as Forest had formidable defenses.

With Cybers, Silvan and the Fighters Guild on one side, and Deltans with Minds on the other, this battle was going to be a close one.

Despite quickly losing the initiative and all the chaos that ensued, Protectores Silva managed to keep their heads cool and with a considerable effort and unforeseen amount of resources were able to fend off the attack.

Eon 730 - PS give Blue Screen Lagoon to CI

⌛ Event

Protectores Silva gives control over Blue Screen Lagoon to Cybernetics Inc upon their mutual agreement.

Eon 723 - 2nd Sabotage in the Desert

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

After failing to secure a contract with Fighters Guild, Cybers return to their previous tactic of sabotaging the Timeless Desert.

This tactic proves useful again, as the Cybers are able to trigger CR Mines and interrupt Temporal Resource production in the region.

However, the battle itself was heavily dominated by Deltan forces helping MT defend, while Cybers and Silvans mostly conserved their forces for the upcoming MT retribution.

Eon 715 - The Unfriendly Battle of Blue Screen Lagoon

⚔️ Battle won by Protectores Silva

Protectores Silva attacks MindTech Institute and captures Blue Screen Lagoon.

This battle seemingly caught MindTech Institute off guard as their performance in the battle was “poor” at best.

Initially meeting a strong defensive action form Delta Collective, Protectores Silva backed up by Cybers and the Fighters Guild persisted as the battle lasted into the night where its fate was decided.

Due to previously friendly relations between Minds and Silvans, this battle was named The Unfriendly Battle of Blue Screen Lagoon.

Eon 706 - The Fall of Ares Garden

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective

Delta Collective attacks Protectores Silva to seize control over the Ares Gardens in a battle known as The Fall of Ares Garden.

This battle has two remarkable traits:

• it’s the first ever direct attack by any faction on Protectores Silva;
• it’s the first appearance of Fighters Guild in a cross-factional battle.

Sellswords in this battle dealt more damage than both Cybernetics Inc or MindTech Institute, clearly establishing a new powerful player on the Zeithalt map.

However, their efforts were not enough to help Silvans win this battle.

Eon 697 - The Corruption Outbreak in Synaxos Fields

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute (combined faction forces)

Corruption Outbreak in Synaxos Fields happens, but factions being alert to the danger win by a good margin.

Zeithalt historian took a break during this time, so there’s little or no written history of this event.

Eon 687 - The Crash Landing on Indigo Shore

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective

Cybernetics Inc decides to retaliate on Delta Collective with an unexpected attack on Indigo Shore but fails to capture in the battle known as Crash Landing on Indigo Shore.

Zeithalt historian took a break during this time, so there’s little or no written history of this event.

Eon 679 - The Defense of Dev Null Marsh

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc

Delta Collective attacks Dev Null Marsh, starting a battle known as Defense of Dev Null Marsh.

It was practically won by a clever use of Special Tactics and resources by Cybernetics Inc.

Zeithalt historian took a break during this time, so there’s little or no written history of this event.

Eon 666 - The Spooky Battle of Chaotic Plains

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective (combined faction forces)

Corruption strikes Chaotic Plains causing a Spooky Battle of Chaotic Plains, which, however was closely won by collective factions’ effort.

Zeithalt historian took a break during this time, so there’s little or no written history of this event.

Eon 656 - The Sabotage in the Desert

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

Cybernetics Inc launches an attack on Timeless Desert’s infrastructure in a battle known as Sabotage in the Desert.

As declared by the Cybers, the goal of this attack wasn’t to conquer the Desert, but rather to interrupt its production and weaken its defences.

The initial blow alone achieved both of these objectives. Corrupted Mines were triggered in the area, and the first attacks indeed disrupted Temporal Resource production for several eons.

Afterward, the pace of the attacking activity slowed significantly, and the MindTech Institute in a coalition with Deltan forces was able to secure victory in the battle, while Protectores Silva remained mostly neutral.

It’s difficult to determine a clear “winner” in this battle, as both sides claim to have achieved their goals on the battlefield. What remains certain is that, even after seven battles, the Desert still stands unconquered.

Eon 646 - The Unstable Battle of Blue Screen Lagoon

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

MindTech Institute attacks and wins Blue Screen Lagoon in a battle known as Unstable Battle of Blue Screen Lagoon.

A streak of unsuccessful battles for Cybers continues once again, with Minds attacking and capturing the Lagoon.

Despite the help from Protectores Silva and having the upper hand for most of the battle, combined effort of Deltans and Minds prevailed in this battle.

Eon 636 - The Peculiar Battle of Mt. Pickles

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective

Delta Collective attacks and wins Mt. Pickles in a battle known as Peculiar Battle on Mt. Pickles.

What gave the battle its name, is the fact that the battle seemingly stopped several times and changes into friendly conversations and even picnics between participants.

However, after some time, the fighters remembered their differences and the battle would resume.

In this battle Cybernetics Inc were on the defensive side (helped by their allies Protectores Silva), while Deltans lead the assault with help from the MindTech Institute.

Eon 626 - The Enduring Defense of Webified Hills

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc (combines faction forces)

Factions collectively stand strong against Corruption in the Enduring Defence of Webified Hills.

This time the Corruption wasn’t spreading particularly fast, but the battle was difficult and long.

Once again factions were able to come together and collectively defeat the threat.

Eon 619 - The Reclamation of Imperial Swamp

⚔️ Battle won by Protectores Silva

Protectores Silva attacks and claims Imperial Swamp in a battle known as Reclamation of the Imperial Swamp.

After a devastating loss to Corruption and the following restoration projects the Imperial Swamp stood as unoccupied and CR-free land - a chance seen and seized by the Protectores Silva.

Prompted by Silvans, the rush to capture the Imperial Swamp started, but having used the Corrupted Shards, the Silvans were ahead of others the entire battle and secured the victory.

Eon 617 - CI and DC exchange lands

⌛ Event

Cybernetics Inc and Delta Collective exchange lands upon their mutual agreement:

• Dev Null Marsh is now under control of Cybernetics Inc;
• Peace Death Gorge is now under control of Delta Collective.

Eon 611 - A Picnic near The Purple Deeps

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective

As a late night settles in the Deltan lands, joint forces of Cybernetics Inc and Protectores Silva lay a siege to the Deltan capital of Purple Deeps.

Interestingly, most Deltan forces were absent or asleep at that time, so their allies from MindTech Institute had to fend off the first attacks.

In the initial hours heavy fighting breaks out, almost bringing down Deeps’ defences to an equal fight, but in an unexplainable turn of events the fighting stops in its tracks and all factions take a break for several hours.

This sudden break granted the battle its name - A Picnic near The Purple Deeps.

Later on, the battle resumes, but by that time full power of Deltan forces were awake, joined by increased numbers of the Minds… as a result, defenders had a comfortable lead till the very end of the battle.

Eon 596 - The Fall of Imperial Swamp

⚔️ Battle won by Corruption

Some say after previous easy victory over Corruption the factions became too reckless. Others say heavy suppression of the Corruption last time caused it being overcharged this time, resulting in uncontrollable violent outburst…

Either way, the collective effort of factions wasn’t enough and Imperial Swamp falls - the land is currently uninhabitable and man-made structures, such as Altar of Ctulhu and Money Factory, are destroyed.

Bank of Zeithalt has declared the Island-wide state of emergency until the necessary CR Restoration Project stages are completed to contain the threat.

Eon 582 - The Advance on Peace Death Gorge

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc

In an unexpected strategic move, Cybernetics Inc were able to make Deltans expect an attack on Dev Null Marsh and divert all their defences there, while the actual advance happened in Peace Death Gorge.

Due to careful planning and good execution, joint forces of Cybers and Silvans were able to dominate the battlefield and win this battle.

Eon 573 - The Battle of Corrupted Valley

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc (combined faction forces)

Factions are able to put aside their differences and arguments to fend off Corruption in the Singularity Valley.

Cybernetics Inc in coordination with other factions did a very good job preparing for the battle - Corrupted Mines were installed, defenses strengthened, fortifications built… it all paid off in the end.

As expected after two violent Corruption outbursts, it seems to have released some of its pressure and this battle proved to be easier.

On the other hand, it means the next battle will be harder.

Eon 563 - The 5th Battle of Mt. Pickles

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc

Delta Collective launches an invasion in Mt. Pickles region - a land that has been peaceful for many eons, but forces of Cybernetics Inc and Protectores Silva are able to stop the Deltan army in its tracks.

MindTech Institute stayed neutral in the first half of the battle, but later joined the full-scale attack on Cybers.

This is the first battle on record where both sides of the conflict launched special operations to undermine each other and get tactical advantage in the battle.

Remarkable trivia - Mt. Pickles has now seen more battles than any other region on Zeithalt, but the previous battle happened here almost 200 eons ago.

Eon 560 - CI gives Oblivion Mire to PS

⌛ Event

Cybernetics Inc and Protectores Silva transfer land ownership upon their mutual agreement:

• Oblivion Mire is now under control of Protectores Silva.

Eon 554 - The Race for Oblivion Mire

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc

Cybers attack and then subsequently win the quick battle to claim Oblivion Mire.

This is the first case on record of any faction using Corrupted Shards to get an advantage in the battle.

The fast-paced nature of this battle gave it the title The Race for Oblivion Mire.

Eon 545 - Military exercise in Cerene Vale

⚔️ Battle won by Protectores Silva (military exercise)

MindTech Institute attacks Protectores Silva in Cerene Vale in a joint military exercise.

Eon 540 - Restoration of Oblivion Mire

⌛ Event

Peaceful collaboration between factions made response to corruption swift and timely - Restoration Project is completed in Oblivion Mire.

While these lands will forever remain scarred by the disaster and every man-made structure was destroyed while the event unfolded, Oblivion now stands clear from Corruption.

Since all population was evacuated previously from Oblivion Mire, it is currently a free land, not belonging to any faction.

The immediate danger is gone, but Zeithalt will remember The Dark Night on the Mire and the lessons it taught us.

Eon 536 - The Dark Night on the Mire

⚔️ Battle won by Corruption

Oblivion Mire is uninhabitable as factions fail to contain Corruption.

Bank of Zeithalt reinstates its policies that were in order during the previous Corruption Fallout to minimize the damages to the Island’s economy.

Many people suffered exposure to Corruption - luckily with recent developments we know that full recovery is possible, although it will take time to heal.

Most of Oblivion Mire is currently in uninhabitable state, many places just dangerous to be in due to Corruption Fallout.

As the last devastating news to the Islanders, renown Valhalla Bar is now also destroyed.

This night will be remembered as The Dark Night on the Mire.

Eon 527 - CI and DC exchange lands

⌛ Event

Cybernetics Inc and Delta Collective exchange lands upon their mutual agreement:

• Singularity Valley is now back under control of Cybernetics Inc;
• Chaotic Plains is now back under control of Delta Collective.

Eon 526 - The Recapture of Synaxos Fields

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

This was quite an unusual battle - for the first time in more than 270 eons that passed since the end of Age of Conquest, all faction fought capture a free land.

Cybers and Deltans did not provide a remarkable presence on the battlefield, while Silvans saw this battle as an extension of clearing out the Synaxos Fields of the Corruption and provided much more noticeable support.

MindTech Institute had by far the most power in this battle, successfully completing The Recapture Of Synaxos Fields.

Eon 519 - CI and DC exchange lands

⌛ Event

Cybernetics Inc and Delta Collective exchange lands upon their mutual agreement:

• Singularity Valley is now under control of Delta Collective;
• Chaotic Plains is now under control of Cybernetics Inc.

Eon 518 - Restoration of Synaxos Fields

⌛ Event

After spending enormous amounts of resources and doing extensive research factions collectively complete @CR Restoration Project in Synaxos Fields.

While these lands will forever remain scarred by the disaster and every man-made structure was destroyed while the event unfolded, Synaxos now stands clear from Corruption.

Since all population was evacuated previously from Synaxos Fields, it is currently a free land, not belonging to any faction.

Many on the Island are wondering of this means a future peaceful collaboration to restore to former glory…. or a threat of a new bloody conflict for controlling the land is looming over it.

Eon 517 - PS passes their attack turn

⌛ Event

Protectores Silva decides to pass their attack turn, releasing the following statement:

We’re that happy all factions are working together on the restoration of Synaxos Fields.

Eon 515 - The Sleepy Siege of Cerene Vale

⚔️ Battle won by Protectores Silva

It was quite an uneventful battle where Protectores Silva were prepared and Delta Collective clearly did a bad job planning out this battle.

Cybernetics Inc and MindTech Institute stayed neutral, while Deltans quickly realised that mistakes were made and that the battle cannot be won.

The slow and frankly quite boring nature of this unsuccessful siege has granted the battle its name - The Sleepy Siege of Cerene Vale.

Eon 508 - The Disaster of Synaxos Fields

⚔️ Battle won by Corruption

Synaxos Fields is a dead wasteland as factions fail to contain Corruption surge.

Several new Bank of Zeithalt policies are in order following an attempt to save the economy of the Island.

Many people suffered exposure to Corruption - fate of those with severe cases is unknown at the moment of writing.

Most of Synaxos Fields is currently in uninhabitable state, many places just dangerous to be in due to Corruption Fallout.

For sure, factions will study the phenomenon in the coming eons to see if at least something is recoverable, but for now Synaxos Fields is considered to be a dead land.

Eon 506 - Rebellion in the Desert

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

MindTech Institute restore the order in the Timeless Desert

The Rebels are driven away and into hideouts after the unsuccessful attempt to install themselves as a new governing power in the desert.

Unfortunately for Rebels they did not find the support of other factions to put up a good enough defence against MindTech Institute.

Delta Collective and Cybernetics Inc mostly stayed neutral, while Protectores Silva joined the efforts to quell the rebellion.

Eon 505 - Rebels take over Timeless Desert

⌛ Event

Rebels take over Timeless Desert, battle ensues where MindTech Institute tries to recapture it!

Rebellion group lead by Sellswords: Just No_name, TheDuckie, Eldar with the help of two inside men in MindTech Institute - CuriousDino and timmyrueben capture several administrative buildings and attempt to take Timeless Desert under their control.

Immediately the fighting starts, Minds attack back and try to drive rebels away from their lands.

Eon 502 - The Island is getting ready for the next Corruption surge

⌛ Event

MindTech Institute‘s Chamber of Corruption Research detects that the next Corruption surge currently builds up in Synaxos Fields.

Bank of Zeithalt issues a message that it is well-prepared to face any outcome, including outburst not being contained in Synaxos Fields. Strict monetary restrictions will be in place if this happens in order to ensure the stability of the Island’s economy.

Eon 501 - The Failed Landing near Virtuara Outpost

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc

Attack by sea and at an unusual time - Delta Collective clearly hoped for swift and surprising attack…

However, Cybers were prepared for that: defences were ready, troops anticipated the attack.

Notable that in this battle Protectores Silva broke their long-time habit of being neutral and sided with Cybers in this battle.

MindTech Institute stayed neutral, making it a 1 vs 2 attack, with no land support.

As a result - Cybernetics Inc successfully fends off the Deltan threat and wins The Failed Landing near Virtuara Outpost.

Eon 492 - CI and MT exchange lands

⌛ Event

Cybernetics Inc and MindTech Institute exchange lands upon their mutual agreement:

• Blue Screen Lagoon is now under control of Cybernetics Inc;
• Oblivion Mire is now under control of MindTech Institute.

With this exchange the factions also release a joint statement that they have completed the process of returning the lands to their original owners.

Will this mean an era of prosperity and peace for the two factions? Or will it be just a short break before the next conflict?

Eon 491 - The Oblivious Battle on the Mire

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc

This battle turned out to be even longer and more unremarkable than the previous one.

Cybernetics Inc and MindTech Institute once again conducted another military exercise; Delta Collective and Protectores Silva were mostly neutral, presumably once again been asked by two other faction to stay neutral.

All-in-all, nothing really special, except for the hilarious fact that members of MT’s government (presumably being intoxicated by the fumes of Oblivion Mire) forgot to issue an official message about place and time of the attack to their troops.

This resulted in some of their forces attacking in the middle of the night, while others embarrassingly overslept the first half of the battle.

Such forgetfulness of MT officials granted this battle its title - The Oblivious Battle on the Mire

Eon 487 - CI and MT exchange lands

⌛ Event

Cybernetics Inc and MindTech Institute exchange lands upon their mutual agreement:

• Paradox Pass is now under control of MindTech Institute;
• Oblivion Mire is now under control of Cybernetics Inc.

Eon 481 - PS passes their attack turn

⌛ Event

Protectores Silva passes their attack turn again.

Eon 480 - CI gives Xyrclaox Watch back to MT

⌛ Event

Cybernetics Inc cedes control over Xyrclaox Watch back to MindTech Institute upon their mutual agreement.

Eon 479 - The Crawling Battle of Xyrclaox Watch

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc

The Watch’s defenses prepared by MindTech Institute are good and attackers have to come from a narrow path to the lands… This offensive was never going to be easy.

With Protectores Silva and Delta Collective staying near perfectly neutral, this battle dragged on even more…

Since the beginning of the battle, Cybernetics Inc slowly but surely were closing the gap between them and the Mind, until in a final push they were able to secure the victory.

The careful, slow and intense nature of the battle has granted it its name - The Crawling Battle of Xyrclaox Watch.

Eon 469 - The Corrupted Battle of PEBKAC Peak

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc (combined faction forces)

All major factions of Zeithalt once again were able to show great unity in fighting-off the Corruption and pulled together a massive effort, narrowly winning against the ever-growing threat.

The eons leading up to the battle showed unprecedented collaborations between Cybernetics Inc and Protectores Silva. Factions temporarily traded lands and provided each other help in preparation for the surge.

During the battle, MindTech Institute fought on par with Protectores Silva, while Delta Collective were lagging a bit behind (though many attribute this to the battle starting at nighttime in Deltan time zone).

Due to the success in The Corrupted Battle of PEBKAC Peak factions CR research projects move forward, giving more understanding on the nature of Corruption.

Eon 466 - CI and PS prepare for CR Battle

⌛ Event

As the whole Island is waiting for the next, potentially deadly, Corruption strike, Cybernetics Inc and Protectores Silva are preparing for the upcoming battle.

They temporarily administrate each other’s lands in Brickland Fortress and PEBKAC Peak, respectively.

Notable events that happened during the short time faction held each other’s lands:

• CI built a 🔬 Modern CR Research Facility in Brickland Fortress;
• PS built fortifications in PEBKAC Peak.

Eon 463 - DC gives Ares Gardens to PS

⌛ Event

Delta Collective gives control over Ares Gardens to Protectores Silva upon their mutual agreement.

Eon 462 - The 2nd Siege of Neuropolis

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

Quite surprisingly, in this battle Delta Collective - known for their chaotic and warring spirit - seemingly decided to follow Protectores Silva steps, as both these faction stayed neutral.

Cybernetics Inc defending effort was good, but well outmatched by MindTech Institute attacking power.

Important thing to note is that during this battle the deal between Cybers and Minds to trade Paradox Pass (becomes CI land) for Illusion Cliffs (goes to MT) was uncovered, raising more questions from other factions.

Eon 452 - Technological advancement - Taxes and Land Income

⌛ Event

In the time between battles Bank of Zeithalt introduces taxes - land income and battle tax:

• battle tax is imposed upon faction members as a way to fill up faction treasuries;
• land income is collected by factions from the lands under their control.

Factions immediately started investing into their own economy by building land improvements that earn more income:

• Cybernetics Inc builds 💡SmartHome Tech in Neuropolis;
• Protectores Silva builds 🌿 Photosynthetic Power Station in A’as Forest.

Eon 451 - The Blitz Battle of Peace Death Gorge

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective

Delta Collective gather considerable power of own men and hired sellswords to organize a successful blitz attack on Peace Death Gorge, reclaiming this land back under control.

Both Cybernetics Inc (defending side) and Protectores Silva (staying neutral, as usual) keep very low profiles, having almost no effect on the outcome of the battle.

MindTech Institute quite unexpectedly joins the offensive. It’s unclear if their intervention was an effort to help the Deltans, or an attempt of hijacking their attack. Either way, Minds power was not enough to contest the confident win by Delta Collective.

Eon 441 - The Lakeside Battle of Webified Hills

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc

In a stunning and unexpected attack near the Lake Corsair, Cybers reclaim their lands in The Lakeside Battle of Webified Hills.

Delta Collective valiantly attempts to defend the territory but are ultimately unsuccessful due to bad preparation - they clearly were expecting an attack somewhere else, having almost no defense setup in the Hills.

Notable that MindTech Institute strongly supported the Cybers’ attack, however some of their members and paid sell-swords did hits helping Deltan defenses too.

Protectores Silva stayed true to their resolve of being a neutral force, hitting equally for both sides to earn some gold.

Eon 435 - PS passes their attack turn

⌛ Event

Protectores Silva passes their attack turn again.

Eon 432 - The Battle of Corrupted Marshes

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective (combined faction forces)

In this battle factions once again stood strong against the Corruption, winning with quite a margin.

However, this battles was not without surprises - Deltans forces were considerable more powerful than other factions, while MindTech Institute performance was so underwhelming, that Protectores Silva was the second best.

Eon 425 - PS passes their attack turn

Eon 423 - The Foolish Battle of Timeless Desert

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

In this daring attack Delta Collective severely miscalculated and misinterpreted the current situation and launched unsupported attack on Timeless Desert.

Eon 413 - The Battle of Legoland Fortress

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

This battle is dubbed “of Legoland Fortress” my some MT members because after two failed attempts, on the third try the fortress finally crumbled.

This battle questionably marks the end of Cybernetics Inc and Delta Collective partnership, as Deltans are left unsatisfied by Cybers underwhelming participation in battle.

On the other hand, only a fraction of Cybers supported MT in this battle, what probably left Minds unimpressed too.

The tensions are rising, alliances are shaking. It seems only Protectores Silva manages to not worsen it’s position in this battle, by keeping low profile - a position, understandable for a small and so far a peaceful faction.

⌛ Event

Cybernetics Inc and MindTech Institute exchange lands upon their mutual agreement:

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

Minds were able to defend their lands in this battle, with the help of Protectores Silva (and some Deltan involvement in the end of the battle).

Worth noting that both MT garrisons were located in the area, greatly helping with defences - as if Minds wildly gambled or been informed of the attack.

This battle happened at night time for most of the participants and took longer than usual to finish, granting its name - The Night Battle of Paradox Pass.

Eon 391 - 2nd Battle of Corrupted Desert

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute (combined faction forces)

The participation was high and battle ended rather quickly.

Due to various factors and the recent spike in activity and commitment, this battle against the Corruption was less intense than the last one and many think it was won much easier this time.

Does it mean that the next time the Corruption will strike harder?

⚔️ Battle won by Delta Collective

In a dramatic battle, alliance of Deltans with Cybers gathered together a great force both in battle and in financial effort, and successfully conquered the heart of MindTech Institute - their capital city Neuropolis.

Historians noticed that Protectores Silva did not immediately rushed to the aid, but joined after a few attacks - either due to the surprising nature of the attack, or they were negotiating something the Minds…

This epic battle will be remembered in chronicles as The Siege of Neuropolis, first ever attack and successful capture of a faction’s capital.

When faced with a choice whether to keep the city or let Neuropolis burn to the ground, Delta Collective decided to save the city.

All the fires remaining after battle were promptly put out, the immediate restoration of city walls began, Deltan officials started the effort to restore peaceful life in the city.

⚔️ Battle won by Cybernetics Inc (combined faction forces)

In this very close battle after several hours of fighting everyone was on edge till the very last minute. Though great cooperation the factions have once again defeated the Corruption threat.

It is believed, however, that some Delta Collective have intentionally not participated in the hope that Cybertron Jungle would fall. It’s just a suspicion, but this idea can be poisonous for future politics on the island.

During this battle your fellow historian mostly slept and been busy with stuff, so this battle bears no special name. It’s just known as The 3rd Battle of Mt. Pickles.

Two times in a row Cybers help the Minds win new lands from Deltans… which brings us to the question - what’s in it for Cybernetics Inc?

With the upcoming Corruption battle, we will see if the factions are able to unite under new circumstances or if the political quarrels mean more to them than the fate of the Zeithalt Island…

Eon 330 - The Confusing Battle of Indigo Shore

⚔️ Battle won by MindTech Institute

Quite confusing for DC who were quick to call it a betrayal.

Also, in the epic meme moment Loki got confused and defended in the middle of his faction’s attack. This brought massive embarrassment to him as he was also a King of the Server at the time and everyone paid attention to his actions.

All this confusion granted the battle its name - The Confusing Battle of Indigo Shore.
