I think so Noki. Dark Blight? Was that the name? Waarg Boss was in whatever the alliance was. It started on Christmas day, 2010, iirc. Although it was probably too small to be included in the list of major Illy wars since it was just the 2 alliances (right?).

Waaargh Boss wasn't in DB, actually. Apart from that, your facts are bang on.

I think the H?/White war was a global conflict that eventually became
White/Black/MK vs. H?/Ni/Dlord/Goon/Curse/and a few others for a total of 8 alliances, iirc. At that time, excluding Crows, this represented a significant portion of Illy at war.
Illy has had The White War, The TMM War, Champ/?? (what was the name of that Orc alliance?) War, The VALAR War, and now The Consone War. There have been many smaller wars.

Ah Yes.. True enough... mind-slip

Although I wasn't around, I think the CrowFed was involved in the Dark Blight war because of Dark Blight's attacks on Calaquendi, which had recently affiliated with Crow.
Notably this is the only major war in which CrowFed has been involved, with the exception of mCrow's participation on the Valar war.

TMM, CHAMP and VALAR were hardly wars - more like small brush-fire engagements. I'm gonna go with only 2 major wars.

I personally see this as the first "major" war on this scale.... since the white war occured when there were still only two minute concentric circles of population on the continent.

Nokigon would be able to confirm but my recollection is that it due to DBs attacks on Calequendi that Calaquendi became part of crowded. Also, during this time most of DB's leadership went inactive
Champs soon followed up against the remnants of DB due to a longstanding feud.

We're going way off topic here, so I'll open a new thread in the Histories sub-forum in response to these questions.
