Well usually when a clan of 4 uses pathetic strategies, the other clan goes down no matter what, you don't really need skill. You guys got to at least admit that.

Being bitter won't help you win. And I joined the clan and stayed in it, I am not jumping to avoid retal, Arthus.

[Gen. Volkov]

Congratulations on finally doing what you should have done in the first place.

[Shadow I]

I'd say given the situation ingame at the moment, our approach was pretty effective.

[Gen. Volkov]

Whatever, you could have done that in the first place, and been far more effective than you have been so far, without having to stoop to land dropping. Besides which, while we have been lessened greatly, it still hasn't changed the fundamental situation. We are still on top and you are still all below us.

[Shadow I]

I am not worried about getting anywhere, I only even joined because Rudder asked me to help. If we wanted top spot we would have focused less on damage and more on netting. As it is, I've used my last 1500 turns on nothing but offensive missions and healing. By effective I mean that we have accomplished everything we set out to do each run, despite any efforts to stop us.

For example, I just caught Arty with his pants down again, and got rid of 150bil cash and 250mil net of troops.

[Arthus]

Which he made in one run... And you were clan hopping before, so now you might have joined the clan yet again and are staying but you were doing it. You could have easily taken down Lf by only using the cheap tactic of mage suicide and murders and not having to drop land. I just think that there isn't much to be proud of, that's all, you admit that then alls good.

*Rolls eyes* You guys whine for like 2 weeks straight about how much stronger we are than you, so you have to use all these weak and cheap tactics, and now here you are, bragging about how you've accomplished everything you set out to do. I'm sorry, but your guys whole campaign against us has been an exercise in how to be buttheads. It's taken you guys nearly 3 weeks and thousands of collective turns to actually do real damage to us, and through it all, you and Freen have been putting out this non-stop macho BS. An actual swift takedown might have impressed me, but as is, you guys have nothing to be bragging about. So seriously, just shut up.

For example, I just caught Arty with his pants down again, and got rid of 150bil cash and 250mil net of troops.

Blah blah blah. We've kept you guys down in NW and land for 3 weeks now. As you've repeatedly said, you've started every run at low land and zero troops. Relative damage is in your favor, but I still say your guys efforts have been pretty pathetic.

Oh, and side note, I think it's hilarious that you guys burned 870 turns on me, including over 700 turns on missions, and still didn't take me down completely. If I hadn't been clanned, there is no way you could have done it. Which is basically what we've been saying from the beginning. Unlimited attacks makes us very vulnerable.

[Shadow I]

Lol of couse the takedowns are nothing to be proud of. You guys are clanned, it would be kinda weak if we failed. On the other hand, claiming that staying clanned is the only reason you are being taken down is silly - it gives you a convenient out for the fact that a clan of people less than half your net is currently roundly kicking your butts. Once again, I could care less about my finishing ranking in this - with 8 people, first place is meaningless. So I am quite content to sit on the bottom and continue to help the clan do this long and mildly amusing takedown.

If you are going to be talking about stupid moves, though, I would just like to point out that to date, I have caught every one of you with guards down, some more than once.

We stopped dropping land once it became obvious that there was no way you were going to lock it, we could alwyas start again...

[Meestir amayzing]

If I hadn't been clanned, there is no way you could have done it.

if you hadn't been clanned than there wouldn't have been such a major different because it would have been solo empires fighting for top spot instead of 4 of you just massing net

might want to watch what you say by the way...

[Arthus]

Uh... Shadow, you shouldn't say you stopped dropped land when Freen just dropped another what, 200k of it? Did you guys come to take us down or just dump all the land?

Also, what on earth do you mean by "claiming that staying clanned is the only reason you are being taken down is silly - it gives you a convenient out for the fact that a clan of people less than half your net is currently roundly kicking your butts."

The ONLY reason you managed to break us was because of the unlimited hits. You couldn't touch Volk at all, you had to mage suicide, then murdered him down which would have been impossible to do if not clanned. And you know as well as the rest of us that net means nothing when mage suiciding. A bunch of people with 100mil net can easily topple one with over 2 bil net with suicides and murders, nothing to be proud of at all. So STOP pretending that it was hard. Underdogs? Please, there is no such thing in this case, where suicides and murders can be done. I've done it at ME, nothing at all to be proud of or boast about. Espescially when you end up dropping all the land as well.

Anyways, exam time so vacation for me. Enjoy dropping whatever is left of the land. When I come back and you maged land, I'll be sure to be a prick and drop it all.

[Meestir amayzing]

i think we figured something out from this. Clanning has it's ups and it's down. one of the best ups the protection in this case the four major players were clanned up and managed to start getting top nets about a month and a half ago, they then took an immense lead. now staying clanned is the downside.they can easily be murdered whether it be mage or troop. and brought down to low lands and what-not. so it doesn't matter what arguments you have, you use whatever is possible to do what you need to do and that was the case here.

[Shadow I]

Wise words. If you don't like the disadvantages of being clanned, disband your clan.

[maddog]

its kind of funny that you guys feel so proud of dropping almost 1000k of land and yet if it been a clan of new but experienced players from another prommi turned up and done that all hell would break loose over it.


it just shows the double standards some of you guys have

It just goes to prove you utterly incompetent you guys are.

You whine and complain Maddog, but you do nothing. Your defenses are constantly broken and you don't even fight. Don't complain if you can't put up first.

But you know, if people started dropping my land, I'd have done something with my clannies a LONG freaking time ago. Point is, you DON'T care. If you did you'd have fraught against us. You didn't, nor did you clan. So I don't care what you said.

I'm proud of our actions and what we're going to do. You guys are worthless and not worth my time to even post anymore, thats why I hadn't said anything in forever.

[Ruddertail]

*Yawn.*

I'll be glad when this is finally over.

Volkov - you've insisted we've done a poor job of taking you down. That's possible - I was kind of running the thing at the start, and I'm not the best commander. Would would you have done differently, starting from poor mage ratios and like 30k land, with the two people (myself and Shadow) I had at the start?
