Echelon makes the Bastion of Neutral Groups with Vulnere and the Gutin War Cult.
The Cheth Wars are said to be a group of related conflicts, instead of one resulting with the BoNG winning most, due to its experience with the server.

Orovika refuses and FellOffBridge would go and assist Shadow fighters in sinking two Orovikan frigates. Orovika would from now on use MaidPierce of Vega as a mercenary.
The largest battle of the war occurred on September 3 in Aret's orbit. The battle was an Orovikan victory after all of Shadow's ships were sunk and AdelieXY's frigate was rammed by Gregolegomonkey's gunship, preventing it from moving. This led to both ships sinking.

On October 6th, MaidPierce sinks KR_Builder's medium freighter in Sirius, vega then allies RentDueYesterday. This also triggers Arimfea to join the conflict alongside Orovika and Vega, The Horizon Federation is rapidly created with the UFP (UNSC renamed), Sanctuary, Imperial Nova, Orovika and Arimfea.
For most of the war, the HF players were inexperienced with SvS, and were bad compared to Vega, however they possessed one advantage, being in a huge alliance. And they would begin using ''lagfleets'', these huge fleets however lagged the server, leading to it being impossible for combat. This strategy is poorly looked upon by players. assumed to be from Late October to the end of the war.
