The Battle of Strong Badia was a conflict between the Homestarmy and Strong Badia, depicted in the Strong Bad Email "army".

Why it Happened

Prelude to invasion

Colonel Homestar Runner was driven to embark upon a campaign to invade and capture Strong Badia because he was tired of Strong Bad stealing the show (or as Homestar himself put it, because he was "sick and tired of playing second fiddle to a two-bit Wrestleman and his yellow dog"). To aid his cause, he recruited Homsar, Strong Sad, the Painting of a Guy with a Big Knife and Third-Style Private Frank Bennedetto, and proceeded to march upon the stronghold of the Brothers Strong.

Summary of Events

The lone casualty of the Battle of Strong Badia.

The battle lasted about ten seconds before it was cancelled by Colonel Homestar so that Strong Bad and Strong Mad could play badminton. Homsar, unfortunately, deserted approximately three seconds into it, or simply didn't notice that they had reached their destination as his "helmet" was covering his eyes. The Homestarmy was forced to retreat (Colonel Homestar commented they were "in over [their] heads"); after Strong Sad exhorted the troops to "hold the line", Private Bennedetto was nearly slain by a kick from Strong Bad's foot when he remained in enemy territory. The Brothers Strong emerged victorious and went on to wonder how to play badminton. After the attack, Strong Bad discovered the wherebouts of Private Bennedetto and put him in a POW camp behind the Strong Badia Wall; after several months in the camp, he was finally rescued by Colonel Homestar and Pom Pom, events depicted in Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon.

The Homestarmy has only been seen in action once since then, making sure that no one did any work on Labor Day. The limited accounts of this campaign indicate they had some success in this endeavor.
