Central Park War

The Great Central Park War
''"STAHT TAKIN' EM OUT!!! CMON, SHOOT! I TAUGHT YA'S THAT IN BOOT CAMP!" -Admiral-General Lt. of the Mafia ''

Overview
The Great Central Park War was a battle that spanned from October 4th to the 7th in 1989. It began as several mafia members were seeking Halal Street Food vendors in Central Park to extort when a clown car pulled up and approximately 320 clown troops came out and began an assault. The clowns utilized brutal, unconventional warfare including filling balloons with mustard gas and squirting acid from their flowers. The gang members, armed primarily with baseball bats, switchblades, and .45 caliber M1921 Thompson submachine guns, should have been able to easily defeat their opposition based on numbers alone. Due to poor discipline and a lack of focus, almost all of them were immediately swayed by the clowns' tricks and fell victim to their brutal warfare tactic. The final casualty count is estimated at approximately 16.4 million deaths on the New Yorker side (counting resurrections/multiple murders per person) and, officially 0 on the clown side. Despite this, there was one likely casualty.

Morning of Oct. 4th
At approximately 10:11 AM on October 4th, 1989, gang members Demico Ferrari, Tony Salazar, Joey Salid, and Mikey "Babyface" Moretti were on patrol of Central Park working an assignment to shake down Halal Food cart vendors for protection money. Armed with guns and bats, the men strolled the park at a relaxed pace often stopping to nap.

At approximately 10:32, traditional clown music could be heard throughout the park and shortly after a red polka dot clown car approached the men and opened its doors, letting several hundred clowns out.
