The Knights Radiation, also called The Second Atomic Crusade, is an alliance war which began on June 17th 2022 when Church of Atom declared war on The Knights Radiant. Other members of Hollywood alongside TKR, namely Guardian and Grumpy Old Bastards, would also become involved.
Prior to the conflict CoA had held an M-level treaty with Aurora, a member of Clock. This treaty was cut less than an hour prior to CoA declaring war on TKR.
Hollestial[]
Prior to this conflict Hollywood and Celestial signed a mutual agreement to demilitarise and defend each other against any attacks until all parties involved in Vein Has A Smoll PP War rebuilt and demilitarised.
The move was seen to be against Clock and potentially The Back Room, over fears of attempting to hit one of the Hollestial signatories as a chain to the ongoing Global War. This was also done in Armenia's Revenge, in which Clock declared peace and then hit Rose Sphere (precursor to Mile High Club and later Celestial) starting Rick's Last Roll. It was later revealed that BlackWater (precursor to Celestial alongside Mile High Club) asked Clock to perform the chain.
This move was seen as extremely controversial, with alliances from Clock, The Back Room, and even Johnsons voicing their concern and displeasure against the move. Hollywood and Celestial made up almost half of the game combined. Even separated both parties were still larger than Clock, especially after the departure of The Hand of Fate.
This is the reasoning for Church of Atom's war as stated in their declaration of war. This makes this the second conflict to use the Hollestial treaty as a casus belli against TKR after The Circus in the Battle of Los Angeles.
However shortly after the war began the treaty was officially disbanded. It is currently unknown if this announcement was caused by the war.
The Fault in Our Stars[]
In the midst of this conflict Hollywood turned around and attacked Celestial beginning The Fault in Our Stars. This came less than two weeks after the Hollestial treaty officially came to an end.
