Second War of Paranoia

"Spies everywhere...it was like a re-hash of the first war. This time, however, the land of Graal had become accustomed to militaries...there were more than just two factions. No one knew whose side everyone was on, discord and distrust was everywhere. It was the second war. It was worse than the worst war..."

The Second War of Paranoia was a conflict fought primarily between the State and the alliance of the Kingdom of Imperia, under Xinke Magnus, and the Basceyian Empire, an imperialized version of the Bacseyian Federation. It is regarded as the first war in military history, and the rules of combat and warfare (or lack thereof) originate from the rules of engagement established by both sides during the war.

Causes

General Auel of The State, longtime rival of Harau Bacsey, felt he needed to finish off his enemy after rumors abounded that Bacseya was rising once more. The Auelists were wrong; Harau could lead again, and he did. This time, Harau had a total of FOUR Viceroys, instead of one, with divisions all ready for war.

These Viceroys were Viceroy Alex of the Bacseyian Initiative, Viceroy Mathiveas Kaine of the Bacseyian Legion, Viceroy John I. Bacsey of the Bacseyian Special Operations Corps. (BSOC), and Viceroy Brink of the Bacseyian Brigade, a backup force for the Legion.

Harau had not nearly as much troops as Auel did, but thanks to fast recruiting by the Viceroys, the numbers slowly grew. However, Auel's Colonels did the same and the tensions kept escalating. Harau eventually declared total war and the hell of the original War of Paranoia began anew, this time much more amplified.

Imperia, now reborn and under Xinke Magnus, a former State veteran known for starting the Communist Rebellion in the Old State, joined Harau in an alliance known as "The Alliance" to Bacseyians and "Le Alliance" to Imperians.

Conflict

Imperia shielded Bacseya while its numbers grew, and issued "Challenges" to the State. They were basic skills challenges, like battles of wit, brawn, strategy, and more.

Imperia was 1-0 against the State when Harau, having enough members at his disposal, launched multiple assaults on the State. They were all victories. Harau and his Viceroys, knowing that the war was in their favor, issued a challenge to Auel in quite an embarrassing format: on YouTube! The link is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkF-85TjIAY

It was a spar challenge. Winner take all. No lags, no hacks, no excuses. If Harau lost, he would give up his prized mask. If Auel lost, he would quit the game. Auel agreed, but did not show up and thus forfeited the challenge. 

First Downfall of The State

Le Alliance was 2-0 against the State, and thanks to Harau's admin friend, TeeDee, Auel was banned the day after he was supposed to spar Harau. 

BSOC Viceroy John I. Bacsey devised a plan based on Zaer's betrayal of Harau which ended the original War of Paranoia. John led all the State troops online into his house, and Le Alliance, having more troops online, ambushed the State soldiers. The war was over.

Auel was eliminated, for now, and rather than leeching the State's soldiers, the Bacseyians and Imperians agreed to just leave them to rot and die. However, Auel did return. 

The Aegis War

Aegis Company, led by Xeno Zor, had stolen several Bacseyians and Harau wanted them back. Xeno refused and began to collaborate with the State.

Auel had returned and the State was big again. Things were looking bad for both sides, with Harau's ultimatum and the threat of the State.

However, the State did not deign to help Xeno in any wars, and Harau declared war.

Bacseya sieged Baretheon, the compound in which Aegis Company made its HQ, and the Aegis warriors were crushed by Bacseyian forces. The State did not produce a response to this.

However, this came with sacrifice, as the Bacseyians let down their guard and the Aegis Company warriors swiftly brought the war to a stalemate. Harau died shortly after and Mathiveas was crowned Emperor.
