''Not to be confused with other [[fall of Cell Lattice|attacks on Cell Lattice]].''

== Timeline ==
The war began on March 18th, 2022 at 6PM UTC exactly. NBGM and Trollge users poured onto the Cell Core, the template around which Cell Lattice was anchored. Simultaneously, users from [[Gura's Supermarket]] and [[The Purple Empire]] invaded CL's sizeable territory from other fronts. Capitulation of the Cell Core occurred in 1 hour, as the Alliance's overwhelming numerical superiority in the opening attack (47-7) dwarfed Cell Lattice's ability to defend. The alliance would also gain many chat volunteers, and many members of Cell Lattice simply stopped defending. The war was considered over by many participants after the first hour of fighting, with many members of the faction outright refusing to follow orders from their leaders.

A concurrent battle would occur on a nearby pride flag (the same template CL tried to place over NGBM) which would progress slower due to Trollge members being the main contributors to the attack. The flag was relocated, resulting in a gradual reduction in defenders that allowed Trollge to quickly cover the area.

The surrounding cells were then filled with Navy Blue, Black, and GSM's sunflower lattice. The Purple Empire continued invading through a more remote area of Cell Lattice.
== Aftermath ==
[[File:War propaganda.png|thumb|War propaganda drawn by a Trollge Member]]The war was contemporary described as the "destruction of any remaining influence [Cells] had on Pxls." The NBGM and Trollge Confederacy agreed to end hostilities on [[Canvas 55|the next canvas]]. This agreement was almost derailed when GreenCatKid mounted retaliatory griefs on the NBGM template on March 19th, but he eventually stopped. Amy was elevated as an admin and neutral observer within the leadership of Cell Lattice to ensure it remained independent in the future. However, Amy became inactive soon after this. It was not until the [[Opcellogs]] that Cell Lattice was permanently expunged. 

The war was also the first joint operation between the Trollge Confederacy and the NGBM.
