There's something to be said about nostalgia:

Warbands 1 was on Beatles' personal server a year ago, but when some idiot used the NoLimit game a bit too much it crashed. It and RWCenter have never been restored.

(Holy Cow, was that a whole dern year ago?!)

I'm sure Beatles could probably set it up with no difficulty, but why bother at this time?

Yes, but those were the days... :)
People, if I recall rightly, didn't kill so much. *sniff*
Does anyone remember We Will Bury You? It was, I think, on the Warbands on my UW webspace.

Ooh, and the mathematical way to conquer NoLimits. Priceless.
Pity someone used tried to knock down the top few with industry. That was what killed the server.
We need the competition present in WBI.
FaF is just HPR, currently.
And back then, it was Warbands.
Back. I think.

I'm normaly fairly peaceful, but it's getting so boring with only the occasinal attack, that I'd be glad to have some wars. Maybe have the admins make two clans, put everybody in one or the other, and set them to war!

...Otherwise known as setting up a Duels server. ;)

The obvious advantage of that is the possibility of new members or at least new interest due to the previous popularity of duels. However, it doesn't make sense until all the bugs are worked out.

Hmm. In that case, maybe do somthing like Boar suggested. Either disable clans, or make it so that all clans are set to war with each other. Or, maybe put multi billion dollar bounties on everyone over 25,000 land, and make the requirment for collecting the bounties taking the person down under 10,000 land. Of couse, you might want to add land buying then, because right now, we don't have more then a few people with over 25,000 land.

Yeah. Be able to buy land! There's just not enough land in the game.

What Devari said.

FaF is not released, in the sense that you play other promisances. It is still a very featureful, but ultimately (bug-ridden) beta. When it's done, then we will release it, and then there will be Duels and much rejoicing. Currently, we are not recruiting new members, and we don't want new members, because the current base of members is perfectly enough to test things. Also, if someone joins and notices the state it's in without realizing it's a beta, they will go away with a bad impression of the game. We are not trying to be a Promi clone, we are trying to be unique, and that takes effort.

Er is Warbands still working? I checked the top ten then there... and someone has a ridculous NW. But I dunno. Wait people In FaF have a small amount of land? *Checks* WOAH! They DO. Apparently no one know how to play the game *laughs*. Just kidding. I test there for Beatles every once in awhile. But I keep getting killed... I need to stop joining a clan, and not take ruthless advantage of a game bug again *laughs*. Meh.. no one is Faf is REALLY netting. Or are you refering to conquest of generals? *Checks* Nope. Meh. Was that me who crashed the server? I don't think it was. I mean I didn't run THAT many turns. I think it was someone else. Meh.

BTW you guys could have plenty of land if you wouldn't kill your land sources. Also.. If I could stay alive for longer than say 3 days.. I could get up there and break long patrol and redistribute the land. But whatever.

Someone almost got close to hitting LP only a few days ago. Another from RWL here to conquer all now? Just know, it was CORIM that suffered from the last attacks, not AE, and well, I didn't think you were trying to give the land to AE, who ended up with it.
