 The 2002 Rockton Attacks (Japanese: 2002年ロックトン大量撮影, Hepburn: 'Nisen-ni-nen Rokkuton Tairyō Satsuei') took place on December 21, 2002, where six Crimsonites committed a series of perfectly coordinated attacks against the Minecraftian government and on civilians.

The first attack occurred at 6:22 PM, when one of the Crimsonites drove a truck into a crowd, killing 14 in the process and injuring 26 others before being shot by police. Two minutes later, two other Crimsonites hijacked another truck with the passenger opening fire on civilians killing 23 more and wounding 19. Four minutes later, a fourth Crimsonite detonated a suicide bomb at a local shrine, killing 28 and wounding 43 others.

Near the end of the attack, two other Crimsonites opened fire at an airport, killing 13 and wounding more than 90. The fifth Crimsonite got arrested by the FBI when he tried to board a plane to Minecraftia City the day after the attack. The sixth Crimsonite was spotted five days later by a drive-thru employee at a local Burger King in Western Kaitushima.

It was the deadliest attack to hit Western Minecraftia since the Cold War before Minecraftia University in Minecraftia City was attacked twice in 2005 and 2008.

Several countries condemned the attacks, with then-US president George Bush calling it "barbaric." The FBI charged the two Crimsonites with first-degree murder and providing material support to Team Crimson. The trial took place on January 6, 2003. They were both convicted and received capital punishment. They remained on death row before they escaped to participate in the first Minecraftia University raid, where they were eventually killed.
