Dre4m War

The Dre4m War began in earnest on June 13, 2015 when Limited Nexus called in is allies Monsters, Inc. to attack the Screaming Red Asses.

The Conflict Slowly Builds
On June 7, Dre4mwe4ver of the Screaming Red Asses, a key proponent and signatory of the Brown Sphere's fought against Methrage of Limited Nexus in the III%-LN War, who was regarded by the Brown sphere as trying to strong arm a senate seat. Methrage demanded SRA reign him in, and Walsh the Beloved, Red Ass Commander, Dre4mwe4ver (and anyone who aided him) were on their own, as SRA as an entity had no interest in defending the brown sphere. Methrage insisted Dre4mwe4ver's actions represented SRA policy, and PM'd Walsh the Beloved an ultimatum with a deadline for Dre4mwe4ver's removal from the war.

When that ultimatum was ignored, Limited Nexus attacked Xrayben and Fruntz, two SRA members via military and spying who were not involved in the conflict. SRA responded in a limited fashion, attacking only those LN nations who were attacking SRA members uninvolved in the III%-LN conflict. (Notably, no Limited Nexus attacks were launched against FAN.) In the meantime, diplomacy between the Methrage and Walsh the Beloved deteriorated as Methrage felt his alliance was being disrespected and SRA needed to be taught a lesson, and Walsh the Beloved felt that Methrage's view of diplomacy was to hurl repeated ultimatums and be generally unresponsive to reasoned discourse.

The War Expands
On June 13, the measured build-up of the war shifted gears suddenly when nations from Monsters, Inc. began a wide scale attack on the Red Asses at the request of their ally Limitless Nexus. Peace was discussed and tentatively agreed on by the parties pending Walsh the Beloved's approval, who was unavailable. After considering the offer, he declined for the following reasons:
 * Disenchantment with Methrage's diplomatic efforts
 * Monster's, Inc had attacked SRA when they were at DEFCON 5. Simply gearing up for war and slot dedication to a war effort was a huge expense that he was loathe to waste
 * Immediately prior to offering peace, several Monsters, Inc members had attacked one more time, meaning several SRA members would have been attacked twice, been unable to respond, and forced to make peace

After the Red Ass counter-attack, Confederatio Æsir entered on behalf of Monsters, Inc. and Limitless Nexus.

On June 15 the Red Asses since the fighting had gone on without a declaration up until this point. Kashmir entered on behalf of the Red asses later that day.
