==== Author's Note ====
It is at this point my ([[Des23]]) personal expertise on the subject ends, and the events involving the WP in the latter half of 2.0 and beyond are better documented in the main article listed below, written by Lysika (who found himself on both sides of the conflict at various points in time). I will however continue to go through these events focusing particularly on the WP groups, cataloguing their rise and fall.

Over the course of October 2015, the WP-Mir alliance successfully captured the Nox netherfactory and began their seige on the Nox vault. Progress was slow and grindy, and the alliance lost a number of fighters throughout the course of the seige.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/3pt5sy/official_statement_of_chanada_trackball/</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWOv_uHxZgU&list=PLOcJuSE-pWKAV4ShJiVfDkv793tflsAsA&index=22</ref>However, the alliance was able to pearl more Nox fighters than they lost, and they were further bolstered when Mt. Augustan fighters joined the assault on the vault after the dissolution of their alliance with Nox.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/MtAugusta/comments/3ndhxr/dissolution_of_defense_pact_between_nox_and_mt/</ref>Eventually, after weeks of fighting and some Nox fighters betraying them, Papa and sintralin were pearled and the Nox vault was cracked open on November 13, 2015, resulting in an astounding WP victory and the end of the server's last major threat.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/3sm9eg/we_did_it/</ref>Mir remained close to the WP, but the two still remained ideologically at odds with MtA, who was a long-time Nox ally until it no longer suited them. Mir handed over the Nox netherfactory to MtA, and the two sides diverged once again, but they were at least at peace. Things carried on as normal until [[Civcraft 3.0|3.0]] was announced in January 2016. As it existed for only two months from July 31 to October 1, 2016, 3.0 was simply not around for long enough for any WP groups to form.
 
== Devoted 3.0 ==
Between the end of Civcraft 3.0 in October 2016 and the beginning of [[CivClassic 2.0]] in June 2017, [[Devoted]] was the main server the civ community played on. Though Devoted was always smaller than Civcraft, it had a history dating back to 2015 and a distinct community who appreciated its differences from Civcraft. This community was joined by the vast majority of Civcrafters who were looking for a new source of civ experience in the wake of 3.0's failure, setting the stage for the refoundation of the World Police.
