THE STORY (original)
[spoiler]The major countries of the world start to colonize the moon at around 2040 AD (Round 1), all on their own and without telling the others. The colonies all spread about, not realizing other colonies were also on the moon. Then, they discovered the other colonies, and war broke out on the previously peaceful lunar surface. After 10 years, at around 2050 AD (Round 2), many colonies have been eradicated, and only a few remain. Having lost radio contact with Earth, they have to rely on themselves and find their own resources. Then another 10 years goes by, and around 2060 AD (Round 3), only two colonies are left, and they discover the incredible weaponry they can make with the stunning resource of Helium-3. With time running out, the colonies battle to be the last survivor.[/spoiler]
THE STORY THUS FAR
Round 1 (2040 AD)
[spoiler]Four major nations of the world; spy, Muzzel, 40kguy, and Steve the Mighty; take initiatives to colonize the moon, that is the western hemisphere. Meanwhile, four other nations; hagardunor, osujacket, RT71139, and Lacika; have already started colonizing the eastern hemisphere. Also, the nations of Araldite, Chewie1, agressivo, and douitashimashite have taken initiatives at colonizing the southern hemisphere; while the nations of Cyclone_23x, mmonteiro30, and blockwood pioneer the northern hemisphere.
On the western hemisphere, chaos breaks loose following an attack on Muzzel by spy. The two colonies battle each other vigorously until a third colony, Steve the Mighty, encounters them and eradicates them with their superior tech. Suspecting further threats from the 40kguy colony, Steve the Mighty then captures the enemy's people. However, some of 40kguy's troops escapes into the northern hemisphere.
On the eastern hemisphere, the colony of hagardunor has encountered the Lacika colony, and then found and attacked the osujacket colony. This led to an all out battle between hagardunor and osujacket. Meanwhile, Lacika has an unfriendly encounter with the RT71139 colony, and a small brawl ensues. Then Lacika interrupts the battle between hagardunor and osujacket, and hagardunor turns on Lacika. Osujacket, being free, goes berzerk on the other colonies. Meanwhie, the Lacika colony defended its position from hagardunor and while the other nations were fighting for the shuttles, saved resources for a strong attack. After it captured all the shuttles from osujacket, it attacked his last stand in the Russian Landing Site 2. At the last moment, osujacket reinforced his last position, and has survived. In opposite case, with his 5 spoils in Lucika's hand, the game could be finished. (Lacika) But then, RT71139 eradicates the osujacket colony with his numerical advantage. The two surviving colonies now poise to strike each other in an epic battle of mass proportions. Then, with an explosion of troops, Lacika wiped out the RT71139 colony.
On the southern hemisphere, douitashimashite has encountered Chewie1 but has made peace (for now) to prevent further conflict. The same happened between Araldite and agressivo, except that they continued to slowly erode each other. In honor of their treaty, Chewie1 directs their hostilities elsewhere on agressivo. Then douitashimashite breaks the treaty with the "Maunolycus Incident." As time goes on, Araldite and Chewie1 steadily assault agressivo, while agressivo counterattacks Araldite. This leads to the conquering of agressivo by Araldite. One colony down, two to go. With agressivo gone, Chewie1 redirects their attacks on Araldite, as does douitashimashite. Araldite, feeling cornered, defends against both of them as well as possible. The colonies are all getting more troops from spoils and are building up troops for a massive attack on the other colonies. As the hits come on and on from all sides and to all sides, the colony of douitashimashite slowly gains the power once held by Araldite. But after Araldite counterattacked douitashimashite, Chewie1 gained the upper hand. And then, after a massive counterstrike against douitashimashite, Araldite again earned the title of supreme colony. The three colonies battle vigorously to dominate the other two. Just then, the colony of Chewie1 is dealt a fatal blow by douitashimashite, ending the peace treaty. douitashimashite then continues on and captures the Araldite colony.
On the northern hemisphere, the survivors of the 40kguy colony have encountered the blockwood colony. Then the mmonteiro30 colony encountered blockwood. These three colonies engaged in heated battle until the colony of Cyclone_23x came in and rampaged them. The colony of 40kguy fought back, but Cyclone_23x had stronger forces and won out in the end.[/spoiler]
Round 2 (2050 AD)
[spoiler]10 years after conquering their respective hemispheres, the settlements of Steve the Mighty and Lucika have begun to explore the rest of the moon, fully confident of themselves. The settlement of Steve the MIghty than encounters Lucika, and suspicions arise as to whether the other can be trusted. Right then, radio communication with Earth goes out mysteriously. Now that they are on their own in terms of supplies, the two settlements are even more suspicious of each other, and more prepared to battle. Then the battle starts. Each settlement fights to their fullest, but Steve the Mighty wins out in the end.
On the other side of the moon, a major war breaks out 10 years after the distrusting settlements of Cyclone_23x and douitashimashite encounter each other. Amazing, douitashimashite takes the upper hand with a stunning 3-fold technological break through, and after 9 intense hours, it pulverizes its helpless enemy.[/spoiler]
Round 3 (2060 AD)
[spoiler]After conquering their fare share of enemies, the nations of Steve the Mighty and douitashimashite prepare for extended life on the moon. They build cities and towns and atmospheric domes to help their population live longer. They also conduct numerous research projects, in which the find several valuable uses for Helium-3. The two nations had gotten settled into their new lunar home... when suddenly, a close encounter breaks the peace. Steve the Mighty takes a nip at the nation of douitashimashite. In a rage, doutiashimashite brutally retaliates, keeping Steve the Mighty's troop deployment low. Then Steve the Mighty gains extra troops and heavily assualts douitashimashite, who retaliates with twice the brute force. Steve the Mighty then makes one more futile attack, as doutiashimashite has become the stronger nation. Then, douitashimashite launches a major invasion against Steve the Mighty, which defends with its militia. Now that douitashimashite has the shuttles, the nation prepares to launch operation Lunar Shield. This marks the end of the nation of Steve the Mighty. After 20 years of intense fighting, the nation of douitashimashite takes control of the moon.[/spoiler]
