Who Won the Frontier War?

While the precise victor of the Frontier War remains unconfirmed, it is widely presumed that the Militia won the final battle. However, the war ultimately concluded due to the severe resource depletion experienced by both the Militia and the Interstellar Manufacturing Corporation (IMC), rendering both factions unable to continue the conflict.

The outcome of the Frontier War was not a clear-cut victory for one side but rather an exhaustion of resources that led to its cessation.

The Conclusion of the Conflict

The final battle of the Frontier War did not result in an undeniable, definitive triumph for either side. Although the Militia is generally believed to have emerged victorious from this last engagement, the extent of the victory was limited by the heavy toll it took on their resources.

Key aspects regarding the war's conclusion include:

• Presumed Militia Victory: Despite the exact conclusion of the final battle being unconfirmed, the Militia is widely presumed to have won this decisive engagement.
• Mutual Exhaustion: Both the Militia and the IMC factions had their resources severely spent. This critical depletion meant neither side could wage further battles, effectively spelling the end of the Frontier War. The war's conclusion was therefore less about a definitive military conquest and more about a mutual inability to continue hostilities.
• Post-Battle Blackout: Following the conclusion of the final battle, a widespread communications blackout began, shrouding the immediate aftermath in further mystery.

The Aftermath for Factions

The Frontier War left both primary factions in a state of severe depletion, leading to a de facto end to the large-scale conflict.

The Frontier War thus concluded not with a formal surrender or a triumphant parade, but with the silence of spent resources and a communications void.
