The '''War of the Icenian Coalition''', also known as the '''Grasslands WarGambit''', was a war on [[CivMC]] fought from 8 December 2023 to 12 December 2023. It was initiated with a surprise attack by [[Icenia]] and [[Yoahtl]], allied with one another in the [[Dawn Guard Pact]], against [[Gang Shi]] on the 8th December 2023 in response to leaks from the Gang Shi Discord that implied Gang Shi intended to eventually go to war with the two in order to establish dominance over the server.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/18dkxm7/pearled_harbor/</ref>
 
The war opened on 8th December with a joint Icenian-Yoahtlan surprise attack on the Black Mesa pearl holding vault, disabling it via groups obtained by Grassland insiders. Early the next day, Icenians skybridged to the Florence bunker, eventually disabling it, while also obstructing a Gang Shi iceroad. Late on 9th December, Gang Shi launched a massive, five-hour long, and eventually vain attack on Altepetl that ultimately ended with the Gang Shi attack bunker disabled, 10 Gang Shi fighters pearled throughout the campaign, and ultimately one defender killed (not pearled). A skirmish between Gang Shi forces and Icenians in Icenia City on 11 December ended in one Gang Shi fighter pearled. The war ended on 12 December upon the insiding of Gang Shi and Butternut by [[ComradeNick]], relinquishing control of both nation's defensive infrastructure to the Dawn Guard Pact.
