Battle of New Dorasterrock

The Battle of New Dorasterrock (also known as: The Last Stand of New Dorasterrock or The New Dorasterrock Massacre) was a battle on July 27, 2021. It was the first battle of the Allium-Coalition War.

Events of Battle
The battle started with troops rallying in New Dorasterrock, under Crezyman, and the Viodoxan fort next to Shelbia (just north of New Dorasterrock) under Loic.

The coalition would march as a mob onto the defensively fortified city. Meanwhile, in New Dorasterrock, Crezyman ordered a general withdraw from the city, asking all defenders to leave. Most did, however, a small group of fighters decided to ignore this order, and stayed behind despite knowing they would probably die. The remaining Bardonians, Escharians, and Ombrians were primarily grouped in the Bardonian senate building, preparing for their last stand, as the Coalition forces poured in.

The Coalition's soldiers overwhelmed them, and the Allium forces were slowly whittled down to very few people. Chancellor/Prophet Unic0rnb0i logged in halfway through the battle (having been at work), and escaped the senate chamber. He was mobbed by several Tortugans, Uldarashi, and Viodoxans, but was able to escape through a small hole in a mined out chasm under the city, where he healed with a golden apple. He escaped the city, but when he came back to fight, he was killed twice by Sxowry and Foxmunk respectively (his head now resides on the gate to Urnu-Arrak). While this battle happened, there was another battle happening in Pillars of Sun, where leaders Eric2772 and Luke6556 organized twenty nine Coalition fighters, and raided Pillars of Sun, home to the famous Pog Bar, in an attempt to distract the Hands so the attack on New Dorasterrock would go smoothly for the other members of the Coalition. The Hands, meanwhile, were mostly indifferent to the war, with members from Allium choosing to fight and the rest staying home.

The attackers traveled through a nether portal and waited for the first wave, which had players Luke6556, SipForge, Tra1lblazer and Cheli_ enter the city with invisibility potions and TNT. The TNT was placed to create terror to the Hands. Later with full gear, the rest of the troops, lead by Eric2772, went to attack Pillars of Sun. The players Moyye, Dex_Og, Dotto21, Yaykei, Ezexus, and ThunderfanTV would help defend Pillars of Sun in the interests of HimoS401, because Pillars of Sun is an independent state within Bardonia and unaffiliated with their wars.

Notably, the attacking city of Lumeno was left unguarded, and knowingly sacrificed by its governor SipForge, which Moyye aptly capitalized on by going to Lumeno and looting the city, even cratering the house of SipForge, and thus the sacrifice had been paid for. At this news, lubw and a band of other Tortugans came to Lumeno to defend it from Moyye, but by that time he had returned to Pillars. The Tortugans quickly went to Pillars of Sun where they defeated Moyye, and drove off the remaining defenders.

The defenders, after slaughtering countless waves of attackers, abandoned Pillars after killing 33 and losing none. Soon the rest of the Coalition came and occupied the city with no one in it, looted Pillars, and left to celebrate the victory of the Coalition. Meanwhile, the Guardians of Pog Bar returned to New Dorasterrock, killing a few leftover fighters in netherite gear outside of the city in a trap. This secondary battle was a defeat for the attackers of Pillars of Sun, but may have been strategic victory in that the Coalition was able to take New Dorasterrock without a hitch. Also come to pog bar, we have DMT (A moderator told me to do this). Also read the The Bog Bar Battle.

Unrelated: It was rumored that the Aurlûnor Velande had involvement in the conflict by sending a volunteer force, despite declaring neutrality. Potions would appear under the player Hydra Blackwater, a citizen of the Velande. He was also the only person from said nation recorded to have fought on the Bardonian side as a supporter..
