'''The Siege of Columbia''' was a prolonged series of battles, skirmishes, and bombings occurring during the [[Infinity War]] that primary happened within [[Columbia]], [[Polska]], and the former [[Chanseatic State]]. The Siege was one of the longest ongoing campaigns and marked a major milestone during the Infinity War; the end result was a pyrrhic victory for [[World Police]] forces resulting in a permanent end to any offensive operations by the [[NATO]] alliance.{{Infobox military conflict

After NATO's initial assault on the Crucible was repelled, a series of prolonged attacks on Valyria City began. NATO established a system of tunnels throughout the Polska and Valyrian under cities and used these to springboard attacks on the Valyrian City bunker located underneath the rail station. Due to the proximity of NATO forces, Columbian forces evacuated the Valyrian City bunker. After a week of tunnel warfare, fighting stagnated and neither side was able to make significant progress.

Following the stalemate in the tunnels and the defeat at the Crucible, NATO began to utilize mass citadel bombing (obsidian bombing) to raze Valyria City. For over two weeks, NATO forces deployed teams of exile pearled fighters to grief the city. These exile pearled players proved nearly impossible for World Police forces to stop as killing them simply resulted in them re-spawning back at their bed allowing them to continue griefing several minutes later. World Police forces attempted to prevent this attack by deploying city bastions however NATO easily countered this by constructing a large skyplatform over the city from which they could break the bastions from relative safety. This campaign resulted in one of the most devastating obsidian bombings of a city.

During the fighting for Valyria City, a World Police Agent discovered a large farm and bunker complex within the Chanseatic State to the east of the Crucible. After an investigation, it was determined that these farms were owned and operated by known Hallow associates OJDZ and Foogoot. A World Police attack team was deployed to disable the farms while a second team was on put on vault defense duty. Once World Police soldiers began hitting snitches at the Chanseatic State farms, NATO deployed a counterattack on the Crucible Vault in attempt to disable it while many of it's defenders were out pillaging farms. This plan failed as the team the World Police left behind was able to withstand the NATO assault and buy the farm team time to finish their task.
