Setting the Stage
Prior to the beginning of the Siege of Columbia, a number of key events occurred that "set the stage" for the oncoming battle. These events proved critical in deciding the outcome of the siege.
Columbian Bush War
During the Columbian Bush War, Rhodesian in exile Kdeeks utilized his position in Columbia's Government to steal the bulk of the Columbian citadel groups excluding the groups belonging to the Valyrian Province. As a result shadedoom, leader of the Oomist Faction lost access to all of the defensive infrastructure, snitches, bastions, farms, vault groups, and city groups. Additionally, this forced the rapid development of the Crucible Vault located north of Valyria City. After the defeat of the Rhodesian sect, Mirian forces found and disabled a NATO skybunker located in the ocean north of Polska.
During the Infinity War, this loss of Columbian infrastructure proved to be exceptionally disadvantages to World Police forces as they no longer had access to the entirety of mainland Columbia and as such, were unable to make serious inroads into the region until the end of the war.
Strategic Position of Columbia
Columbia's geographical location coupled with it's access to a sizeable vault made it one of the most relevant World Police strategic assets during war. From the Crucible vault, the World Police were able to stage and launch attacks into the heart of NATO territory. Due to this fact and Columbia's previous relationship with NATO, the Crucible vault and by extension Columbia were prime targets for NATO's largest offensive campaign.
Early Skirmishes
Interdiction into Polska
Following the fall of the Corvus, NATO began scouting the outskirts of Valyria. In response, a number of World Police scouting parties were deployed into Polska to determine the location of any NATO bunkers and disable them. During one such scouting party led by World Police Officer S4NTA, a moderately large group of NATO fighters led by Hallow leader HanTzu was encountered. A skirmish broke out resulting in the World Police forces retreating to Valyria City and one NATO fighter being killed (but not pearled). Similar skirmishes continued for a few weeks leading to minor damage being done to Valyria City and Polska City.
Battle of the Crucible
In the first battle of the Crucible, a NATO spy, hollybell91 with the help of other NATO fighters (most notably former Lexington fighter MCisFTW) sabotaged the Crucible during the early morning hours of February 17th, 2020. The NATO saboteur team dumped large quantities of IRO and DRO into the Crucible Vault rings, groundbunker, and skybunker. Additionally, they reinforced a number of doors onto NATO groups and drained the majority of the stored potions within the vault. Several hours later, they mounted a large but uncoordinated bedrock level assault on the vault which was repelled by World Police forces. One prominent NATO fighter was pearled however the Crucible vault was significantly damaged and drained of supplies.
