Background

Akarian-Utlian Alliance had begun supply the Reformers with military equipment in 2 PC following a break down in Akaria–Niueyjar and Niueyjar–Utlia relations. Despite this the Reformers had continued to lose the war.

Bombardment

On 7-3 4 PC, in a last ditch effort to win the war, the forces of Clan Helgen fired seven Akarian-made omtarre missiles at Erak.

De facto leader of the Traditionalists, Vidar Astridson, was killed during the bombardment along with thousands of civilians.

Aftermath

The day after the bombardment the Akarian-Utlian Alliance –who had only supplied the Reformers to oppose Vidar– announced that their opperation in Niueyjara was successful and anounced that they were ending shipments to the Reformers.

Vidar's death did little to stop the Traditionalists with Clan Helgen being defeated on 15-3 4 PC, ending the war.
