I am reminded of Monty Python - the Black Knight in particular.

Oh. And I do enjoy the attempt by Soup members to label this conflict "The Great Trove War".
We, in the Coalition, generally refer to it as The Consone War. It follows the White War, the Valar War, and will have very much the same result as those did. But you did give me a chuckle for trying to make folks think this is about some mineral.

Hang on a minute, we first see it mentioned as Trove War in that thread discussing what to call it by Grego:

It's parodied by Bonaparte:
Bonaparta wrote:
How about "Game of Troves" |
It gets some endorsement by GM Luna:

In the game of troves, you mine or you die? ;) |
And then it mutated into the form we see now, although Grego does make a good point in saying:

Hardly seems to be a conspiracy to outlaw blood Trove :D

Those that label this conflict at a "trove" war, completely miss the point.

Nobody said it was a conspiracy to outlaw "blood" ??? Trove.
Trove is useful. But that's not what the war is about and Soup's effort to deflect and make it seem like this war is about anything but the community standing up to their bullying is amusing...
