Early-Mid 2015-2016 — C_Corp2002 Started toying with the idea of a Minecraft Server, but didn’t know what it should looklike. (Something Sci-Fi/Space)
Late 2016 — C_Corp2002, ButtonmashTP (Now: Oshwatt), Millycow, Crazymario5, and MusicalDuck (All IRL friends of C_Corp2002) started playing a Mojang-Hosted Realms SMP Server for fun and hanging out.
Late 2016-Early 2017 — The first Realm expired. C_Corp2002 wanted something similar to the experiance we had back with the realm, so C_Corp2002 took it upon themself, and started learning programming/”Code” and how to use many other programs and software. C_Corp2002 started a few small test servers to get a feel for running a Spigot/Bukkit-based Minecraft Server.
Mid 2017-Late 2017 — Colossal Factions was born out a merger between the original concept of “A cool place to hangout after school”, and a “A place where epic battles and nations canrise and fall”. It eventually picked up a few non-IRL players along theway. Most notably Gateway_Guardian (Now: Hoshi) who has became a greatly trusted and valued friend to C_Corp2002.
Early 2018-Late 2018 — Colossal Factions expanded upon the previous concept and grew more into what we can recognize nowadays; A multi-server network with many Planets in addition to Buildable, block-based, Movecraft Vehicles. Colossal Combat was born.
2019-Present Colossal Combat/The Celestial Expanse has grown a lot since 2018, *far too much to write down, But a brief summary of what has been added is as follows:
Custom Randomly Generated Planets with Unique Terrain
Custom Blocks, Mobs, Weapons and Items (Resource Pack required to see most of them)
Movecraft-based Starships and other vehicles.ββ The First Server to achieve fully autonomous, NPC/AI Controlled Ships
*A(n) ever growing Wiki (At long last!)
*More reliable code (Phewh!)
ββ
* Primarily because C_Corp2002 is still actively working on The Celestial Expanse.
