On behalf of White Company I can verify this statement as true and look forward to executing our end of the contract.
Good way to start - dishonor first merc contract and sign up on opposite side.
:rolleyes: you guys can play however you choose. but mercs who break contracts are unlikely to get many contracts.
Not true. It's true mercenary role-play. Clearly, they were offered more.
money is useless right now due to the impending wipe, they must have offered land.

MONEY MONEY MONEY LETS ALL GET (fill in the blankHookers)
i dunno, Wolves are mercs who wont break a contract regardless of what anyone else might offer em. I think the Mercenaries are the same kinds of guys.. if they take money to do something, they will do it.
anyways, have fun WCo.
That is some good legalese that made absolutely no sense to me. You should post in simpler words. I am not entirely sure what you said means.
im Cavalieres, get it right ;)

would the drz give up 9 k troops. not likely. The better chance is the White Company is retreating in exchange for future conquests.

Firmitas, what is that avatar a picture from?
^Also, Gorath I still love you. (no homo)
This.
It fits with how mercenary companies worked throughout history too. +1 to their RPmanship.

I wonder what message this sends to those that would consider entering into an honored contract with you.
As Cicero once said, "Nervi bellorum pecuniae." Money is the sinews of war.
These are unfounded and malicious allegations. WCo has fulfilled all of its contracts. I find it ironic that the same person who readily admits ignorance as to what an option contract is, shows no restraint in accusing an innocent party of not fulfilling it.
Again a contract does not entail indentured servitude.
Man, you are way too serious. Just be a bit more like SeQuel, I like his style haha. Most people are half joking and you quoted just about everyone with some formal lawyer-style response. :p+1 Voso The reprimands will be handed down now 8-)

I wasn't being serious. Its just a game. Please Google irony. If this doesn't help, I promise to end my sentences with a smiley face. This should give you a clue as to my intent. :P

Nobody will ever understand anything of what you said without a smiley at the end on the internetz. Or the absence of one when you think what you type.

The roster shows ranks?
you quoted just about everyone with some formal lawyer-style response. :p
You didn't offend me, I was just pointing something out haha. If your higher-ups demoted you its likely because they felt you didn't represent the clan in the way they wanted to be represented, not just because I said you were too serious but because they agreed. 8-)
Or they had completely different reasons, what do I know? I'm just guessing.

You want a 600 man/women orgy? I'm so confused.
This thread has derailed so much we might eventually cath another railroad.
No, I want a 600 person.. uh.. adventuring party to start a party somewhere... specific...
If I wanted a 600 person orgy it would not include women.
Voso do you work for the state government? :lol:

What does WCO charge for let's say... 150 pages of spam on the Chaos thread?
"After I bought and paid for you. I should have uglied you up so nobody else would want you"
I wonder what message this sends to those that would consider entering into an honored contract with you.i didnt say something like that actually =)
As Cicero once said, "Nervi bellorum pecuniae." Money is the sinews of war.
I'm good at that. Offer?
See now we are on the same page....Honestly, Voso I was joking..,I really meant no offense.
Where does CATS come in on that list
Let's see... what we cannot offer right now:
- Ale/Wine/Beer since sWalker and his FCC drunkards are busy plundering all our taverns
- Taking naps with us (people say we are not good at those for some reason...)
- Dog and pony shows. We are fresh out of ponies :(
What we can offer:
- Cheeky comments on your posts and a guaranteed derailing of whatever you just wrote - and who doesn't like that?
- CANARY CLAN SPAMMER SPAM medal of honor (founded by the legendary SPAMTACUS)
- Authentic Russian vodka - we got a good hookup at the moment
Deal?
To be fair, I'd stop working for someone if the gold they paid me magically disappeared.
Dang magician cheaters.
Hey, hey, hey... but the love never goes away.
well, what a suprise
so thats a merc clan, that doesnt deserve to beiing hired again
when they attack a village, with 6k troops, and in that village, there where 2300 troops and suddenly drz reinforced it with 6k extra troops, they just quit and breaking contracts
well, what a bunch of crap
the most mercs would have to fight until 1 of the parties are winning, and then switching side to the winning partys or retreating of the losing party, thats roleplay mercenary
this war between fcc and drz isnt over and atm its were equally
well, forget the promises of drz if they offer you land, becouse when fcc is kickt out, its youre turn to moving away from there lands
just like the other clans, they suddenly all forgot how drz was taking there lands also, so that means, allot of big talk at the forums, but in reallity they are just scared like litle girls, hmmm maybe you just make a new name for wco, the litle girls
I knew it all along, those thrice-damned DRZ are leprechauns! THIS IS PROOF!They offered us Lucky Charms....we had no real choice in the matter. (Also we were lead to assume as leprechauns they had Jameson Irish Whiskey...need i say more.)
I don't know what we payed you mercs with but to be fair when we hired you we knew nothing about an impending wipe. So we can't really be blamed for that circumstance.No blame is being cast....its simple economics sir...simple economics.

Yes there is economics in play here, your stock just fell

I DO WHAT I WANT.
Hardly. With the Strat wipe, all financial deals became null and void unless one chose to re-establish the contract. Druzhina just came with a better offer. There is no loyalty in the competitive business world. You go with whoever or whatever helps you gain the largest profit. If you want to pull the loyalty card you'd better save it for other nation or empire clans. I don't see anyone saying the Mercs stock has fallen for working with those with the largest coin pocket. If they can get the job done, then they will do fine.
All I'm saying is, I don't see the point in offering you guys money if you're going to switch sides just for more money(by money I mean any equipment, land, coins, friendship, ect)...unless we get a refund? :mrgreen:Sure...You may have your refund now. Enjoy it in the few hours you have :lol:

Just saw the White Company on the Strategus map. It turns out that they're actually black. Just further proof that these liars can't be trusted.8-)

Firmitas, i think they are talking of your reputation. A better contract = short term gain, a somewhat reliable rep = long term gain :wink:
yeAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! more trolling PLZ! :D
So all the seriousness aside.... back to the entertainment and trolling!
you were hired to fight DRZ.. you marched to their lands and hit a villiage with lower troops than you had... They reinforced... You wussed out.. End of story.
Not much else to know or do.. The rest is wind and words.
The contracts talk is the same BS all lawyers use when they are in the wrong and need to find some wiggle room to save face.

Maybe you should just leave them pee stained and call yourself the Yellow Company
Good idea, I'll bring that up in our next meeting.
Wait, scratch that shouldn't it be the Brown Company? I'll just mention both.
I am sorry but this is sheer nonsense. Stocks have two types of valuations. One is a value created using some type of cash flow, sales or fundamental earnings analysis. The other value is dictated by how much an investor is willing to pay for a particular share of stock and by how much other investors are willing to sell a stock for (in other words, by supply and demand). Both of these values change over time as investors change the way they analyze stocks and as they become more or less confident in the future of stocks.
By these two standards are stock has gone up. In an intrinsic stock valuation model we prolonged and increased our future cash flows, notwithstanding a severe disruption in the market i.e. the imminent Gold wipe. In the supply and demand model you can clearly see that our contact have only gotten bigger so by that measure our stock is up.
Au contraire mon fraire, if we would have done what you have suggested, we would have forgone a lucrative contract and have lost all our gold with no hope of replacing it!
The point is:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8y6DJAeolo&NR=1
Assuming you meant 'our stock' rather than 'are stock' by both standards I only see your "stock" going down. If this theoretical stock was supposed to pay out to theoretical stockholders, the gold wipe just crashed that aspect of your stock completely. The same gold wipe also would have lowered demand as people don't have as much to pay for your supply. And now that I've just written those two sentences, it occurs to me that if you're being paid in crpg gold rather than strat assets, both those statements are irrelevant, but I'm too lazy to backspace through them.
But still, if you go by popularity value of your "stock" (aka your reputation), unless you've significantly contributed to any particular faction obtaining an advantage, I don't see how your reputation would have gone up. But if accusations are right about you only executing one attack and then losing right before recontracting to the side that defeated you, it's entirely plausible that your reputation would go down.
P.S. When I was originally writing about the black White Company, my original intent was to point out the irony between their faction name and their faction color. But as I read over what I wrote, I realized how incredibly racist it sounded. So I did the right thing and posted it anyways
As to your reputation arguments, if they were true, why would DRZ contract us? You are giving more value to negotiation tactics, than to the negotiations' final outcome. Ask yourself, why would DRZ contract a depressed asset after having invested so much in aggressive negotiations? I tell you why: because far from being a depressed asset, DRZ concluded that contracting the White Company would increase its Net Present Value.That really depends on whether you're being paid in crpg gold or strat assets. If it's the former, then it's entirely possible that there's enough spare gold to afford mercenaries. If it's the later, then I actually am somewhat impressed. Either way, the fact that you've actually been hired isn't really a good measure of popularity. I could be the crappiest barber in the world, and I bet somebody would still be willing to throw $5 at me to give them a buzz cut if they have plenty of money to spend and need a simple haircut. What would be a more accurate measure of your popularity is how many different requests you're getting and what prices people are willing to pay. Then again, even with prices, it's hard to tell how popular you are since I don't know the average price for mercenary contracts. If we could get all the mercenary clans to post what requests they're getting for the same kind of work, it would be more obvious. Or if it's something ridiculously low or high like 1K or 1M, I could probly judge without contrast.
Like listening to a buncha little kids mang.. On the shogun 2 honor scale Ts/Wco rate as 1. Dishone-rabel.
