The Opening Strikes
The first attacks came on Independence Day, July 4. SPQM and Spanish forces stormed Dallas, facing minimal resistance. Roman personally intercepted and killed CommanderVideoYT and his ally in a preemptive ambush by the two, leading to the surrender of Dallas and the town's alignment with SPQM.
That same day, SPQM turned toward Philadelphia, where a larger NATO defensive force, including leaders like Quite_Toast and Ronnieldhino, attempted to rally. Despite some success in capturing banner points, SPQM forces pushed them back using TNT carts and elite PvP fighters such as Hyrax, Naha, and Patati’s Delacroix division. Philadelphia fell the next day.
Canada Falls: Oshawa
On July 5, the town of Oshawa near Toronto came under siege. The town's defenders, outnumbered and outflanked by Roman’s reinforced troops (including Japanese mercenaries like Pori_12c), surrendered without a prolonged battle.
Turning Point: Siege of Houston
The brutal Siege of Houston on July 12–13 marked the most destructive engagement yet. Home to over 40 players, the city was heavily fortified. Roman planted a banner outside the city at dawn, unleashing mercenaries from Spain and Crimea.
After pushing defenders into the city, SPQM’s troops engaged in house-to-house combat, massacring residents and breaching bunkers. The battle turned briefly in NATO’s favor when Tobikoer (Spain) and Hyrax were banned mid-conflict, costing SPQM 12,000 points.
Yet, Roman pressed on. After 13 sessions of non-stop assault, Houston collapsed on July 13. Civilian casualties were extensive.
July 17: Honduras & Buenos Aires
On July 17, SPQM launched a coordinated two-front siege targeting:
- Honduras, defended by a 30-player NATO coalition within their ganks,
- Buenos Aires, Argentina’s capital, which was poorly defended
In Honduras, intense fighting broke out near the pyramid gates. A massive TNT minecart launcher stalled SPQM’s progress, but internal disorganization and infighting among the defenders allowed SPQM to gain ground. They ultimately won 11 of 12 battle sessions.
Meanwhile, Buenos Aires fell with minimal resistance. Argentina subsequently severed ties with NATO and joined the SPQM coalition.
Aftermath
The repeated defeats shattered confidence in the USA and NATO leadership. Key towns such as:
- New York
- Hollywood
- Galapagos
...have defected to SPQM or declared neutrality. SPQM now controls a vast swath of territory in both the American North and South, with RomanDiCario vowing to continue the expansion until all opposition is extinguished.
