Latest Decree:Our world is being raped and pillaged. It is being destroyed in a storm of fire. There is no way to stop it. The only difference between those who survive and those who die is will you fight it? Or will you join it? In this scorched land an open letter has been sent out to all areas of the world by Dughan the bandit. I promise to offer the safety of a clan for those in need. Those who have fallen from grace still need to find ways to live. We offer you those ways. We will end this era in a Tsunami of blood and violence. Rape and pillage will become common. We will become the new scourge of the land. Join the bandits and lets make it happen. We no longer need unity through equipment. We will have unity through a common goal. To change the world in storm of fire and fury. We will accept all of you from any clan enemies or allies. Your backstory is not important for we will become a brotherhood of bandits.

[/center]The history of the Forest Bandits and a short guide to archery.
Once in a deep forest, three outlaws met, the one actually tried to steal some coins of gold from his lord, as his family had nothing to eat. The other one had no more money to pay the HIGH taxes of his lord and so he needed to leave his village, before beind executed, the third seeking for gold had just bad luck in some of his..well I think you know my dear reader. And so these three founded the Forest Bandits.. -A chronist arround 800-1000 AD, in a unknown land.
-A short text out of Defender of the Wood`s Kane Swiftpaths personal notes-
A archers target, should always be to assist his team, not to kill enemy targets. It doesnt amtter if you have killed somoene, if on the other hand a good skilled and armored bandit dies right infront of you. NEVER try to kill a enemy with a shield, unless you are SURE to hit his feet or head. Ur priority should be:
1. Enemy archers
2. Cavalry trying to backstab/Teammates in danger that need help with killing ((Only if you get a clear shot!))
3. 2hs/ 1h/Polearm etc.
4. 1h w. shield.
