The '''Cronan Theatre of the Second Great War''' was one of the secondary theatres of combat during the Second Great War. It saw continued fighting of varying intensity across the Southern portion of the continent as well as smaller island raiding actions in the [[Polynesian Sea]], [[Sea of Orixtal]], and [[Okatian Sea]]. The war in Crona started later than the outbreak of hostilities in [[Sarpedon]] and [[Levantia]], due to the delayed entry of [[The Cape]] into the conflict.

It saw continued fighting of varying intensity across the Southern portion of the continent as well as smaller island raiding actions in the [[Polynesian Sea]], [[Sea of Orixtal]], and [[Okatian Sea]]. The war in Crona started later than the outbreak of hostilities in [[Sarpedon]] and [[Levantia]], due to the delayed entry of [[The Cape]] into the conflict. Despite continued engagements and conflicts elsewhere, the Second Great War in Crona ended with the joint Arco-Capetian Armistice of 1943, also known as the [[Songun Declaration]], which ended open hostilities between the two nations. [[Arcerion]] and [[Burgundie]] fought The Cape in several major land engagements along the [[Capetian Peninsula]], as well as significant naval actions throughout the [[Songun Sea]]. | ||

Prior to the war, Arcerion had just concluded several years of direct combat operations against Ardmore, during which its Armed Forces were unsuccessful in their attempt to uphold the Ardmori Royal Family and prevent the Kingdom of Ardmore from collapsing. As part of the withdraw, Arcerion helped resettle thousands of Ardmori citizens and was undergoing a significant economic and cultural post-war boom from both the Ardmori intelligentsia that had emigrated, as well as the significant investments from wealthy Ardmori businesspeople who fled the new communist regiment of the Ardmori Cooperative. | Prior to the war, Arcerion had just concluded several years of direct combat operations against Ardmore, during which its Armed Forces were unsuccessful in their attempt to uphold the Ardmori Royal Family and prevent the Kingdom of Ardmore from collapsing.

Overall, Arcer submarines achieved great effect, sinking dozens of Capetian, Caphirian, and Corummese-flagged merchantmen, as well as a number of smaller Capetian warships of corvette and frigate-size. Moderate damage was done to Capetian major capital ships, although none were sunk, just forced into shipyards for repairs. During the war, four Arcer submarines were damaged by enemy fire or anti-submarine warfare, and an additional two were lost. His Majesty's Arcer Submarine ''Superior'', was destroyed by enemy surface vessels, likely due to depth charges and being unable to surface in 1951. HMAS ''Typhoon'' was lost with all hands during an emergency dive rehearsal as part of crew training in the Malentine Sea, where it sunk to 300 meters and was destroyed. The legacy of the war continues to influence modern Arcer submarine doctrine. An emphasis on torpedo and mine warfare are consistently emphasized as the most important aspects of the Service's capabilities, and while it maintains the ability to launch cruise missiles and anti-ship missiles, these are considered of secondary nature. | Overall, Arcer submarines achieved great effect, sinking dozens of Capetian, Caphirian, and Corummese-flagged merchantmen, as well as a number of smaller Capetian warships of corvette and frigate-size.
