=== War with Alpoko ===
On 15 June
When
Immediately after they arrived at the farm and assessed the damage, the raiders were already in Impasse, so the fighters rushed back to the city.
The raiders were barely geared up with about a set of unenchanted diamond armor between them,
breaking a few chests and several beds in the barracks (southeast of the plaza, now location of the Eagle Bunker).
After
The conflict ended with the Alpoko leadership paying large amounts of diamond and iron as reparations for the damages done to Impasse, including covering the output of the cactus farm until it was fixed.

Line 99 ⟶ 102:
After being discovered, they tactically griefed their own hole to prevent Impasse from using it. Impasse responded by removing their blocks and placing more tactical griefing on Impasse groups.
On 21 August 2017 the vault builders retaliated by raiding Impasse's capital city and griefing it with [[SRO]] and SRS. The cleanup involved many supporters from all over the map, notably Impasse's [[Western Alliance|allies]] [[Hjaltland]] and the [[Commonwealth]]. Remnants of the grief are still visible half a year later.

Many of the city's buildings are in Art Deco style, most notably a replica of the Cincinnati Rail Station and Seldomshock's tower of CobbleDick Industries.

▲deciding to leave the Old City behind and build a new, better city in the Plains valley north of the main island.
On September 28, 2018, the active population decided to rename the new city to "Corvus" and turn the nation into a corporation,
with Jaydrive functioning as CEO and the Board of Directors consisting of other government figures of Impasse.
Corvus Corporation maintained several shops located in [[Gabon]], Old Impasse, and [[Icenia]], but most revenue came from on-demand purchases by individuals.
To strengthen the relationships with its neighbors, Corvus joined the [[UNC]] alliance on May 1, 2019, and stayed a member until the UNC disbanded.
During the [[Infinity War]], the vault inside Corvus was broken by the [[Ok Bomber coalition]], and most of Corvus' remaining players were banned for duping, ending Corvus', and thus Impasse's, existence on CivClassic.
