(1) Introduction
This book will highlight major events that have happened on Comet Craft Network over the last two to three years. I will be summarizing everything ranging from updates made by the owners, to conflicts disputed by players and its causes. This books intention is to inform readers and teach new players about CCNets great history and is meant in all honesty to be made without bias. All information is backed up by me and my memories, and supported with firsthand documentation in forums and/or firsthand information given to me directly by other members of the community.
My first days on the server are as one could imagine, filled with hope, bloodthirst, and desire to conquer. I can say that my attempts were successful, and feel like I’ve contributed much to the great community that is CCNet. On the first day I joined, I was immediately looked down upon, and remember at one point DDawg_King (Admin) and Kostas (Admin), trolling me, I even remember what they said. They would say in chat that the server is actually visited by famous youtubers, such as ZexyZek, and I, of course, did not believe such banterous declarative sentences. And I, in no means, was offended, I simply ignored their remarks and set myself in a position as a powerful and dangerous player to compete with, we also later became friends, so no, I feel no resentment towards my old friends (DDAWG/Kostas). I remember (After some time playing) that Ddawg began to trust me and even let me get OP, access to gamemode 1, etc, and let me build banks and fix up a warp pvp area we had back then.
Other than that my days were pretty regular, I would fight battles, raid, gain friends, create rivalries. Overall much fun, but nowhere in my mind did I ever think that I would become so attached to this beautiful online community. I also would like to point out, that the day I was given OP, and I would never do this at this point, I was thinking in betraying. I was still extremely new, what did I owe these people? Nothing. But I did as I was told, and I regret nothing. Imagine, if I had broken away those first few weeks by betraying DDawg, I would’ve never have gotten to meet all my friends and endured all the rivalries to this date.

(3) Events and Updates
(Past 2-3 years)
So far the versions the server has updated to have been 1.8, 1.9, 1.10. Updated to 1.8 on November 29th 2014. Updated to 1.9 around feb 17- jan 20. Updated to 1.10 in June 11, 16
Guns have been around for a long time, way before my time. After a break from guns, Guns were added around October/September 2015 and later on removed with the new 1.10 update.
“Please include all relevant details, like the projectile type, projectile speed, reload time, sounds, ammunition, ammunition capacity and damage “(Quote from Zaify)
Airships have been a fundamental things to the growth and unique ness of the server. The idea was first conceived on APRIL 3 2015 by IVAN PEREZ, suggesting movecraft in a poll. Was added a bit later and has been kept for a long time and is still currently available for use.
Dynamic map was added to allow and promoted more strategic raids on enemies and find locations easier. Added on July 17, 2015, was later removed for no real official reason other than it making it hard for factions to grow due to constant raids and deeming airships useless.
Plug DJ was a popular place to listen to music during its time. Announced on august 30th 2015 and later shut down due to lack of funding on Sept 28 2015.
Pvp titles, was a minor update added to beef up the server with some new things, added on Nov 1, 15, later removed due to updates.
Dubtrack, was created to replace Plug DJ, announced on Nov 14, 15, and is still a very popular app to use for music sharing.
A popular mod that for called “Infernal Mobs” was added, allowing players to kill OP mobs for OP gear, has been repeatedly added and removed due to lag issues and new/newbie players complaining on how hard they are to combat.
Discord is also another popular app dedicated to communication between players, a server was created for us by Ammarali who was later overthrown by the Staff team. It is currently open for use. Added on May 28 16.
Towny, was created right before 1.9 mostly because of Mooshtown, Added on July 23rd 2016. And the first towny war announced was on the 12th of August.
Custom enchants is a mod that allows players to use exp to get high level enchants on their amour, special enchants not vanilla, a post mentioned its addition on Jul 23, 16. Was removed due to it being overpowered, and unpopular. Then Re added in a later update.
Kingdoms is a popular plugin added that works like factions but adds more complex things such as turrets and heroes. It is still available. Mentioned on a post by Calaxer titled: “Changes Coming” on August 19 2016.
Update to 1.11.2 on Dec 21, 16
Dark Era- (Crashes and Paypal) A series of crashes and setback caused by the servers host, with a total of 5 world posts relating to the server crashing because of the servers host. A lot was done to try to stop the crashes such as sending the host several emails and as of Feb 13, 2017 the server was just beginning to reestablish its factions server. With its towny server reestablished on Jan 28, 17.
(4) Wars/Conflicts
Arguable the most important and influential war, the Ndr/Waffle World War, was the first major server wide war that lasted months Initiated by the NWO, Waffle, Zaify, Ndr_Man in an attempt to grow server population. Zaify communicated with NDR, who told him to start some sort of war, as Waffle was the superpower easiest to rally agiasnt due to his aggressiveness, NDR_Man immediately targeted and commenced a “Fake War” with Waffle. It, unsurprisingly, got out of hand and eventually became so severe that it caused players to quit and cause a civil war to manifest itself in the server itself. First move physically and politically was by NDR, attacking a major base built by waffle. The base was very malpositioned, intended to be raided but grew due to the server being low on players and raids becoming scarce, eventually becoming an important base for Waffle and his allies. At this time Dynamic map was introduced, which increased the ease of finding the huge obsidian box. The war was hard to understand, although NDR caused more damage due to him having done more suicide missions, destroying Airships and Chaos outposts. No significant damages to Waffle were done due to outposts/airships being of low cost, since the economy at this time for the server was very inflated, making everything cheaper. Eventually, the war rampaged on to the creation of Towny. Zaify began instigating, by placing both towns near each other. Chaos metropolis blew up in power and controlled the towny economy, becoming a super power and a major target by the then named “Terrorist” NDR. Eventually a peace treaty was signed by both parties, with witnesses being SachiPants, DaWaffleKingUSA, NDR and a couple of other officers. Although the war supposedly ended there, Chaos eventually grew so big, it literally consumed NDRs town, and merged it with the great Chaos metropolis. Confirming the end of the NDR/Waffle Great World War. Later battles are still influenced by this past conflict.
Other Wars/Conflicts (Main ones)
“Waffle- Rainbow” conflict in which Rainbow betrayed Waffle, and eventually the situation boiled over when Waffle accused Rainbow of stealing and allowing enemies to raid his base. Both were considered super powers at the time adding more importance to the who conflict. The bad mouthing and hostile peace lasted weeks. Eventually in which Waffle saw a gap in the server rules, and logged in as rainbow to steal coordinates, completely destroying his base, this led to waffle being banned for around 2-4 days, but was technically banned for no reason, due to no rule being imposed on that situation. It later became huge leverage in future conflicts, for Waffle.
Another major war, called the “The good old Guerilla war” began somewhere around May 2016. It was another type of Civil War between “Old” and “New” players of the server. The “Old” players included, quote, “We must gather all the players of old CC like Dr_Strangelove, Ivan, Waffle, Ghost (I never attacked him like I claimed in my other thread, I was mistaken), Tekkitbyte, Beno, Guardian, Reflection, Rxflection, Kostas, ZombieLady, NDR and Cyber” – AztecKing. Although some denied involvement in the conflict those are the people involved. The factions that all the “Old” players were against were members of PenguinsUmbrella and KnightsOfBlood. There is an unknown amount of casualties and money lost due to lack of information.
The HUngary Boy war –Lasted months, with several battles and tense truces in between- A war between several figures on the server and the faction "AggressiveNoobs" (leader - HUngaryBoy). The war became big when he bought a donor rank, increases his power and allowing him to make bigger raids. Not much info due to lack of records. (Information from: http://cometcraft-reloaded.enjin.com/profile/15382533)
Server vs Ammarali- A conflict mainly between staff members DaWaffleKingUSA and Ammarali in which Ammarali was accused of abusing power, the showdown eneded with Ammarali being fired and DaWaffleKingUSA stepping down from his position. A poll suggest that 64.5% of players thought Ammarali as abusive. (20-11) (Source: http://cometcraft-reloaded.enjin.com/forum/m/22858179/viewthread/28118092-demotion-for-ammarali)
FreeMinecraftianArmy (FMA (Reflection)) Vs Armonian forces and allies conflict (Lasted months with breaks of tense trucing) - Reflection first targeted QueenCortana's base in the end, blowing in on his airship. Armonian forces and allies (Team Goodness and AJEmpire) quickly came to her aid, pvping Reflection, although he sat on his airship spamming his guns, making it near impossible to combat him, NDR and myself made a secret attack on him whilst other Armonia members and allies created a distraction. We successfully hit him of his ship but unfortunately straight into QueenCortana's base! However this was easier and it meant Reflection was forced into proper sword pvp, when I successfully killed him once! NDR instructed Queen to move her valueables, which she did. NDR then spread out tnt and blew up the base. When Reflection returned, NDR, myself and Reflection made peace treaties. Reflection then made consistent attempts to recruit myself (derpy) and merge with Team Goodness. He also let the FMA become corrupt, he let Armonian members and other newbies join his faction and enter his base. Inevitably his base was raided within a day. Ammarli somehow escaped Reflection's attention, mainly because NDR's faction was far more powerful at the time.
This sparked up another war between them. Reflection kicked everyone and ran solo in the FMA. He raided Armonian outposts and constantly was on the move to avoid being raided. The next big event was when Reflection found Benedaz and Logan's quartz base last season. Reflection blew past their few defences and easily took out Logan who at the time was the only Armonian online with access to the base. Logan then private messaged Derpy and asked for help, Derpy came in and eventually, Logan and Derpy did fight off Reflection. Then Benedaz logged in and fixed the little damage Reflection had caused. Benedaz and Derpy worked together to create an inside mission. Derpy disbanded Team Goodness and finally accepted to join the FMA. They raided a few bases one of which was Beno's base. Derpy then put plan into action and insided the FMA, blowing up most loot. Reflection, realising he was powerless then took one last move with his little resources and blew up Benedaz and Logan's quartz base once and for all. Reflection slowly drifted out and became inactive and the war ended. (Information from: http://cometcraft-reloaded.enjin.com/profile/15382533)
3) Gamasse vs DatDerpy, NDR, Logan – Gamasse, initiated several fights, this creating quarels with DatDerpy saying that, “He was also very stupid, letting NDR and Derpy visit his base, when he annoyed them, they /homed and began to raid.” In continuation to this, he added defenses making it harder for them to raid him. During this time, while Logan was distracting him with “RPGs”, Derpy and NDR managed to get in with ceggs. Gamasse and one of his allies then had to face Derpy in a fight, which resulted in a Derpy win. No loot was recovered, so no profit for Derpy, NDR, and Logan, and total loss for Gamasse and his allies. Gamasses base was later claimed as an outpost for FMA. (Information from: http://cometcraft-reloaded.enjin.com/profile/15382533)
“Team Goodness vs MooshtownMKII - Wilst Derpy (then at the time under the IGN: TBNRKenworth) was searching for a raid, he came across and old building in a mushroom biome. He then saw another one and a bridge leading to another island with a few other buildings and farms. It was all claimed by the faction MooshtownMKII which was led by Cyber and had 3 other members. They were secretly rebuilding Mooshtown. As Derpy had helped in raiding the original Mooshtown by taking out 2 large air ships and half and GuardianC6's tree, he went along to raid Mooshtown MKII. Cyber logged on just as Derpy was about to place a cegg. They pvped a while when Derpy decided to back down. But Derpy had a home there but upon his return, Benedaz (his close Armonian friend) and Cyber were waiting. Benedaz enemied Team Goodness and they both attempted to gun down Derpy. HE narrowly escaped. But he thought Benedaz had betrayed him, so he logged on an alt called Lachlan who had a home in Benedaz's base and went along and blew it all up along with all his loot. Benedaz later explained that it was a joke him enemying Team Goodness. A few days later, Derpy went back to MooshtownMKII's claim and ruthlessly blew up all remaining buildings.” (Information from: http://cometcraft-reloaded.enjin.com/profile/15382533)
Goodmonia Town-
“Following the Team Goodness vs Mooshtown MKII war, Benedaz, Her0ebrine and Team Goodness proceeded to build a similar town called Goodmonia ( a merge of Armonia and Team Goodness). The first building was Derpy's house. A large, detailed and great build (no joke best thing I ever build on Minecraft). The second was Benedaz's underground hole which he called home. Derpy, HEr0brine and Benedaz then went on to build around 5 more buildings, 2 air ships, 1 submarine and a large buidling connecting the mushroom island with the main land. A few days later, a guy logged onto the server (sorry cant remember his name) and started talking trash to Derpy. Derpy had to go for 5 minutes but when he logged back into the server and did f home, saw Benedaz;'s nametag and a few important items were missing, it was clear Armonia was slowly betraying Team Goodness. Benedaz said that the guy from earlier supposedly raided Derpy's base. The next day, Logan logged in and started moaning about how he was kicked from Armonia by NDR but he had a home in their base. Derpy took the opportunity and tped to Logan and Logan accepted. Derpy set home there and when Logan logged off, went in for the raid. Derpy either stole or took all their loot and stored it in a secret vault, separate to his f home. He gained hundreds of items which included some iron golem spawners. Armonia lost most of their resources and became very weak very quickly. Later that day Derpy's house had been blown up, and there was a large XxChAoSxX claim over the green camo, look out tower in Goodmonia, Benedaz later revealed he tped Logan in and told him to blow up Derpy's house. Logan must have tped the Chaos members. After this, Team Goodness and Armonia called it even and their alliance was reformed.
2 days before the reset, Benedaz asked to see Derpy's secret vault, as it was so close to the reset, Derpy foolishly accepted the request and tped him in. Benedaz tped Her0ebrine in. Derpy had to relog but when he came back to his vault, Benedaz, Her0ebrine and Logan were blowing it up. Derpy quickly went to the Team Goodness f home and a few moments later, Benedaz was there in invis and tped Logan and YoloMod in who blew up the basem completely. The reset was later brought back by 2 days so Derpy and Armonia were left with nothing for the last four days of the season.”

The “DJvWaffle” conflict, a smaller brawl by Waffle and DJ over a hacker. After hacker, Roraii, was found possessing prot 100 armour, DJ began accusing Waffle of keeping the armour for himself, waffle was later found innocent.
A conflict involving NWO, HelixCoalition, Demicia and HoboArmy. Not much is known about it, due to little written records. Logan was apparently attacked and lost millions in supplies and declared war on his rivals. Lasted several weeks.
Roman Empire VS Byzantine Empire, -13thMEU, tekkit was involved in providing supplies to the byzantine empire, and not much is known due to little written record.
HoboArmy vs NerivanFederation vs Aztec- Started-> Early 2015 and ended the same year in May or June. (http://cometcraft-reloaded.enjin.com/forum/page/1/m/22858179/viewthread/23317491-oh-dear-war-i-hear) (Summerization Required)
(5) Mooshtown
Arguably the most important community project done, so popular that it almost became a advertisement point for the server. Mooshtown has taught us many things, such as, organized societies (Towns above ground) never last. Due to the major tragedy that was MT, which only lasted due to low amounts of online players, and the fact that it was in an island world, instead of the main one, which threw off invaders, gave the CC people the fact that’s its near impossible to create a DEMOCRATIC and SELF SUSTAINABLE non claimed TOWN (In factions).
What happened in this prosperous society? The creation of MT was by a couple of people, GuardianC6, Ghostmaster60, and Dr_StrangeLove. The first building being, quote, “the first structure was a tiny hut that was never used… the second was guardians tree… guardians tree was built at the same time as the townhall” –Dr_Strangelove. Eventually more people migrated in and joined the prospering community. The community lasted weeks and it grew rapidly, forming a complex society. It eventually created an organized military, and government.
In MT the daily life of a player consisted of having the advantages of mail being delivered to them, laboratories were set up to test new ways to improve life, having roads, huge selection of books from a library, voting, guarding, freedom to sail and fly ships, food shops, builders, law makers, courts, and other minor convinces.
Military
Most of the time the head of military was Waffle, until his election as president. Had 3 branches, Navy, Air, and Land. Eventually Navy was disbanded with the betrayal of GhostMaster. In total there were three attacks until its downfall, first by Ghost, then an attack by 2 rival players (In which an anti air nuke disabled their attack), then by NDR (At the time the NDR-Waffle war was raging on) and eventually led to honor-by-suicide of the town. Had anti air nukes placed strategically to defend agiasnt air attacks. Had around 3-5 main battleships along with 5-10 smaller fleet ships. Around 3 subs and 1 boat. An island dedicated to military nearby hosted around 3-5 tanks and other militarized vehicles. Secret military base that hosted complex redstone designs. A secret door on military base island led to a panic room, then another secret button led to another more underground military base, that hosted airships and submarines.
Government
Presidential Elections
Every week a new president would be elected by popular vote,Dr_Strangelove and DaWaffleKingUSA were the only players ever elected into office, Dr demonstrating a more economic and growth related mindset, whilst Waffle demonstrating a conservative, increase defenses approach to governing. Officials included: Head of Defense, Head of Economy, and other minor occupations such as police, and building.
Dr_Strangelove time in power:
He had lasted the longest, had more favorability, was at times more strict that Waffle, demanding total control on what goes on around the Island. There were also many advances during his time. Things such as buildings and expansion were boosted during his time (Bridges, Library).
DaWaffleKings time in power:
Was cut short due to NDR attacks, and since emphises was placed on military he greatly increased defenses, coming up with anti air nukes, mines, organizing the military, buying battleships, and kicking out problematic people and contributed to the new military base. He was also the military general, and head of defense.
The 3rd Election Controversy
During this election a lot of controversy was raised, as Dr could no longer run for president due to the 2 terms-then-change policy. The election was being rigged, but was discovered and all the votes were thrown to restart, to be announced that Waffle won the election.
How its Golden Age ended
During Enemy occupation, the enemies lasted a mere 3 hours in control before the eventual choice to suicide to preserve honor, many atrocities were committed, the enemies began bombing areas of the town, allies who pretended to be with the Mooshtown allies betrayed and joined in the raiding of the town. During enemy occupation near the end of Mooshtowns days, Waffle conceived the Suicide-For-Honor, an idea borrowed by suiciding Japanese generals to not face defeat, and came up with a quick voting decision to suicide-nuke Mooshtown.
Miscommunication played a huge role in its downfall, by which Waffle obtained what he thought was approval from 4 people. One vote, being by Tekkitbye (AtomicMC), later betrayed Waffle by saying he had nothing to do with the voting process, later confessing he was “pressured” into saying yes. Another miscommunicated vote was by Dr_Stangelove, he was not asked but the people on at the time assumed he would say yes due to a past conversation, which eventually turned out was misheard/misread.
(6) Faction History
The following factions are considered to be the most influential, historically and in power they had.
XxChAoSxX
As one of the factions to demonstrate the most influence in the server, XxChAoSxX not only demonstrates major influence in the course of CCnet History, but also portrays a long history of betrayal and founding of many influential players.
Naming- When I first created my faction, I had alternated between very few names. These names included “United Factions”, “Oblivion Army”, “Oblivion” and finally “XxChAoSxX”. For a very short time near the start, my faction was named Oblivion until I decided on XxChAoSxX. The inspiration for the name came from an IOS game I was playing in which I was part of an alliance called XxChAoSxX. After having adopted the name XxChAoSxX for a while, there was a reset as we were transitioning to 1.8, I believe, and I changed it to United Faction, in Jun 22, 15, to establish my faction as a control centre of all factions. (Source- http://unitedfactionscc.enjin.com/home/m/32560938/page/2) Then after a while I disbanded the United Factions named and switched back to my original faction name XxChAoSxX.
Tactics- One of the most dominant reasons XxChAoSxX was always proficient in being literally everywhere, was the philosophy I adopted which allowed almost anyone to join the faction. Adding to the effectiveness of my faction wasthe fact that I would edit permissions so that only officers could go to f home, and would put out a ranking system in which the more a new member contributed the more chances that they would be promoted. It was a hard process to get promoted and very few made it to officer, with people like Dr_Strangelove, Beno, Guitar, Rainbownation, Directelf, and many other players. Another tactic that I recommend to almost everyone is the creation of outposts for your faction. A recent tactic that I consider to be very effective to weeding out hoppers and bringing on potential officers into your faction. EX: As new recruits join your faction you can give them 2 options. 1: Join an outpost 2. Create an outpost. If they choose to join one, they should seek permission from another outpost maker first, so everything is orderly. If they choose to make one, you should set requirements, such as them having an outpost HQ or other buildings for it to be classified as an outpost. You should also give them objectives, such as exploring much of the surrounding area for bases, or being a recruiting centre for new players. Overall, the more a leader of an outpost demonstrates exceptional leadership, the more chances they should have of promotion, this can also work for people who join them. The outpost maker can set up his own laws, and with that his own ranking system, the outpost maker should be able to choose people who they deem capable of replacing them. If the outpost maker is ever promoted and you let them join your faction base, the people he promoted can take over his outpost, and so on. Not only is this an effective way to find out who’s good and who’s not, it also promotes player activity, unlike traditional factions, that make it near impossible for newbies to progress through the ranks.
Prodigy Creator- As I look back on our past, one of the things that stand out the most is the creation of prodigal players, such as Dr_Strangelove, ZombieLady, Rainbownation, DirectElf, Beno, __Questionmark__, Logan Etc. (This is a small list- so don’t be offended if I didnt list you) Players that have not only joined the ranks of the staff team but have been long time players of the server. As no other faction has been able to match the continuous flow of prodigal players flowing from Chaos. It can be ironic- Order from Chaos.
Expansion Intro Towny- One of the major accomplishments of Chaos was the expansion from Factions into Towny. Our Town in Towny was created on ~Feb 16, 16~ (Estimation, most likely earlier). In towny it became the largest and most dominating town in Towny with militaries, buisnesses, and a very advanced government that included elections, voting, and courts.
(Excerpt from towny post): "Towny: Requirements for Governor: 1. Must be active ATLEAST 3 days a week for 2 hours total a day. 2. Must be completly familiar with towny commands (A test will be provided)
Things that governors do:
1. There are five sections to XxChAosxX City, those five areas will be the five areas that the five governors chosen will govern
2. Governors MUST promote active citizens and increase growth by atleast 2-3 building a week
Salary: 20million (per week)(Bigger area)
10million (per week) (Smaller area)"

Roman Empre:
(History Submitted by AztekKing)
My fac: Roman Empire, then reformed into Marines, then Roman Empire again.
__________________________________________________________________________________________
The Really Old Days (late 2014-early 2015)[/u][/b]
As the name suggests, this era was a really, really long time ago. Like, really. I joined the server around this time as an immature idiot. Almost no players around today was around, apart from maybe dabignyanz who joined much earlier than this. I know for a fact that the server had just gone under the joint ownership of wallownage and Zaify, which ended in a disaster after a failed merger with SCWorksPvP. Thereafter, GoldddDiga (who changed his name to Calaxer) and Zaify became owner. The server was desolate and empty around this time.
The dominant faction around his time was Infamous (aka Oblivion), led by some guy called dj and MCExplorersHD (who returned last week!). I do not know much about what happened, though Infamous was at war with another faction. Eventually both faded into obscurity. I hope McExplorersHD and Zaify can shine some light on this mystery era.
The history before even this period is actually extremely rich and eventful, the website at this time was
The Great Hobo-Ivan War (around February 2015 - to May 2015)[/u][/b]
This was an extremely long war, lasting throughout several resets and beginning before DaWaffleKingUSA even joined.
There were short skirmishes before this but this was not the start of a 'proper war'. The Roman Empire, originally founded by the now-known hacker Roraii, had built a huge city near spawn. This was in the era when the server only had 10 slots. The city was sporadically shelled with cannons by awsuman10, who later changed his name to Ivan_Perez, leading to a heavy handed response by the various Magister Militum of the Roman Empire. After Roraii was banned for hacking, the emperorship was handed to the former owner NDR_man, then me. The remnants of Infamous left the server at this point.
It is noteworthy to mention the site of the Roman city was built on the ruins of DDawg_King's castle. DDawg_King later became an Admin, then Operator. One of the inhabitants of the city was the new player fifa4lly, who later became Admin. Around this time, he was new to Minecraft, so I helped him out. Also, DaWaffleKingUSA I think benokelvin and GuardianC6 also joined soon after the glory days of Roraii's rule.
Around May, a war erupted between Ivan's fac, HoboArmy, and the "Army of Conquest", a coalition of various, very small factions. The war was going very well in Ivan's favour until I intevened with the Roman Empire. This was known as "Comet War I". Soon after, the NNPR (Mcgreg10's first faction) also joined on the side of the Army of Conquest.
Thread of Comet War I
A peace treaty was signed as seen by the end of the thread, but it would not last long. Soon the Roman forces backed up by NDR_man would besiege the joint-base of three of Ivan's allies , led by TheDiamondPvP
Siege of TheDiamondPvP
This was also around when guns were added, so the defenders managed to hold off very well. When i said we advanced "dozens of blocks", you shouldn't be laughing. This was a serious battle, WW1 style with trenches, ships and cannons. Everytime we tried to sneak past their defenses and the Army of Conquest shocktroopers stormed their base with the newly added flamethrowers and the now-removed suicide bombs, they would regroup and attack leaving us no time to destroy anything. This lasted for about 3 days by which the whole landscape was destroyed and the defenders were exhausted of their supplies after a daring raid on their supply base. Soon after, they surrendered and TheDiamondPvP and his friends faded into obscurity.
Another key moment was the ambush of Ivan's fleet while it was on its way to bomb the Roman capital, which resulted in the almost total collapse of HoboArmy.
Surrender of the joint Ivan-TheDiamondPvP alliance (Treaty of May 2015)
Due to transgressions, the treaty was partially broken and TheDiamondPvP was forced off the server once and for all. This was the end of an era as thereafter, people like DaWaffleKingUSA and legendary girl ZombieLady would rise and take over.
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Era of Peace (around August 2015)
This short era was marked by my temporary leaving. The Roman Empire, having built up a huge city with a water-protected glass dome to protect it, was split into two by me. The Eastern Roman Empire was ruled by Emperor Asamius, and the Western Roman Empire was led ruled by co-emperors NDR_man and AKT_12. The backwater province of Qajarun was granted independence and given to Abu Mubarak, who apparently sadly died in Syria shortly afterwards.
Partition of the Roman Empire
A fresh offensive was launched against HoboArmy in August 2015, but this did not amount to much.
Declaration of war
The rest of this time was passed without me, so I do not have much more to add.

The Nerivan Civil War (May 2016)
I briefly returned during this time but I do not remember much, I will try my best to recall.
After the inactivity of mcgreg10, his faction was collapsing due to infighting and betrayal. Reflection, an officer in Neriva, created a splinter faction named "Legion" and seized a Nerivan base. There was some tension between the factions I believe, and they went to war briefly if i remember correctly.
The Roman Empire seized the opportunity to seize control of their bases. The assault started with a great aerial battle between the Roman Navy and the Mcgreg/Tekkitist loyalists. We lost a single airskiff and a small frigate whilst they lost 3 Destroyer MK3s, the biggest ships on the server. The main reason why they took so many losses was because they started infighting in the middle of the battle, which was dumb. After the spectacular battle, we swept in and destroyed the remnants of what was left. They surrendered their bases and much loot was taken.
My report on these events

Eternal Empire offensive (May 2016)
Around this time some guy called DarthVitiate came on and conquered half the server. As a result many factions merged and created "The Alliance". This included Rxflection's Armonia (Armonia had split into three rival factions), Marines (my small, reformed faction), the Sith Empire and the Eternal Empire and its member factions.

Siege of Mooshtown (date unknown)
I wasn't involved in this, but this was during the Chaos-NDR war. Mooshtown was stormed by some shocktroopers equipped with guns (led by Rxflection I believe), who succeeded in cutting off the bridge to questionmark's library island, killing many residents and expelling the rival raider dat_derpy_dinoz. This was the beginning of the various raids on Mooshtown, coined the 'siege of mooshtown' by NDR_man. Because I wasn't there as I said, NDR_man probably has a lot more info.

AgressiveNoobs War (during the Eternal Empire offensive and continuing sometime after this, can't remember the exact date, sorry)
AgressiveNoobs (no typo) was formed by an extremely powerful donator named HUNgaryBoy. This guy was thelegend27. Everyone tried to defend their bases, but HUNgaryBoy kept kicking their ass. Around this time I should mention many people including lordmightybob and Vindikhan joined. The war is moslty covered in Waffle's starter post in this thread, but I should mention the offensive on the AgressiveNoobs base which was found by NDR_man. This offensive included the newly returned me and Ivan_Perez, uniting our factions and many old players including TekkitByte and Ghostmaster60. We travelled on ships to Hungary's base, fully equipped with paratroopers (using newly added elytras) and fighter escorts. However, someone tipped off HUNgaryBoy in advance, and he had evacuated the base by the time we arrived. There was some minor skirmishes before he retreated, leaving the offensive a failure.

NerivanFederation:
The History of Neriva (By KingMcgreg10)
Leadership Roles:
Supreme Leader – Mcgreg10 – KingMcgreg10
General of The Army – Cayman01 [retired]
General History
The founding of the Nerivan Federation took place 5 years ago, on a small modded server named Realms of Denryden. Realms of Denryden was generally a war server so Neriva grew rather rapidly recruiting everyone who suited the Supreme Leaders requirements and who was willing to take the leaders oath. By the time Neriva was about to have their 6-month anniversary they were becoming the biggest faction on the server taking part in some of the biggest raids that ever took place on the server are most notable raid would have been the raid on foxsniper123’s base which had at least 2 stacks of everything and that being said this server had around 120 mods installed so it was quite a huge raid. To add a little on to that that was when Neriva was hitting its 7th month as a faction and as a well-known faction in the Minecraft community.
Sadly about 3 months after that Realms of Denryden closed its doors for good and nobody would look back to that server again everything and everybody we knew on the server disappeared and Neriva was back to the drawing board trying to find a new server to settle on and to thrive on eventually we came across the server Craft lots WW3 which at the time it was a thriving large modded community with over 1200 members that included zaify I believe. So we decided to settle on this server it was quite challenging at first to find a suitable place to settle with all the wars going on, and with all the bombs dropping around us eventually we found a nice quaint little place little did we know it came with a heavy burden to carry on our backs, that burden was Armonia.
As we were setting up shop beginning to actually get somewhere on the server we met Zaify the leader of Armonia and he wasn’t to happy to see that new players that were quite competitive were building in his turf so he warned us to move or be moved we had 2 weeks to decide whether to move or fight Armonia which at the time had around 10 more active members then Neriva did Neriva only had 12 members at that time. When zaify returned expecting us to be gone and out of his territory he got a rude awakening we were waiting for him this battle was a large one bombs dropping bullets flying everywhere blood was splattered on everything you touched.
But eventually Armonia gathered enough strength to push back the Nerivan Armed forces out of their territory but in my bones, I knew zaify knew that Neriva would become his biggest challenge on the server in all the time he spent playing on it. Which for awhile he thought nothing was going to happen they had an odd skirmish but it was rather quiet but little did zaify know Greg was preparing a new set of weapons the Nuclear missiles so Greg came up with a plan to get caught by Zaify and his army which he and his head general Cayman did but we managed to escape with the coordinated needed to send an Armata of missiles raining down on their city it was completely obliterated these types of missions would continue to be used in the war armonias would blow up Nerivan fortresses while nerivans would blow up armonian fortresses after awhile this would get boring between Greg and zaify so they made a deal to become friends as long as they could help each other when either of them needed help. After a long while of no new action and Armonia and the Federation of Neriva became to of the biggest factions on the server at the time other factions were merging and growing into a coalition to fight against Greg and Zaify sadly this coalition was so big Greg and Zaify could no longer withstand the fighting and just said the hell with it.
Nearly a month after that Craft lots WWIII became a figment of our imagination and Greg vowed to never grow his faction to size where it would become uncontrollable and people would start getting mad at him so from their on out on Craft lots he became a supplier but he did help in some major conflicts but for him it was mostly quiet. Greg would become quiet and a keep to himself sort of guy so he changed the name of his faction from The Nerivan Federation to Neriva and from their on out he lived his life fighting on his own terms and nothing but his own.

Summary-
Cometcraft has had a large and rich history consisting of betrayal, friendships, and war. But we must not forget who we are and how close this community has brought us together and to people from around the world. This summary of CCnets history took around ~9 hours to make collectively, due to the amount of research and the amount of digging it took to collect all this data. Special thanks to Doc, for helping me edit and for giving me more info on MT.
