At 6:34am Shadedoom (Columbia) pinged NATO discord, alerting the alliance Mir had skybridged into the vault. The skybridge had breached all 3 rings of the vault, and had reached a distance of 8 blocks from the skybunker. Mir had successfully broken roughly 10 bastions bastions before before the alert was sent.

At the time of the siege, the Columbian vault was a work in process, which was severely under-finished and under-equipped, lacking many features to defend a vault.

The immediate first respondents (NATO) to the attack were Shadedoom, _SteveBuscemi (Alt of General_Thomas, Rhodesia), Camokool (Hallow), BrunoTheMiner (Hallow).

who all arrived to defend the vault within 10 minutes of the alarm. The following hour consisted of lite skirmishing and baiting around the vault at bedrock. Mir's forces removed pressure plates and quick access to the vault on the ground level. Mir also attempted to block an ice road and create an area for a ground assault from at the vaults North West corner. However, they soon abandoned this in favour of consolidating their force on the skybridge. Shorty after doing so, NATO reinforcements arrived, notably Doommad, and Hantzu (leader, Hallow).

During the skybridges push into the 8 block bastioned skybunker space, _SteveBuscemi suggested using debuff potions in dispensers to deter the skybridgers. When using splash poisons, this tactic successfully deterred bastion breaking. Combined with archer fire through the bastion breaking holes, it became difficult for Mir to consistently break bastions.
