Just played a few rounds right now.  Pretty good.  A bit laggy at times, but otherwise is working as intended...  only stopped playing because I'm broke...

I don't even understand the reason for upkeep.  Makes it more interesting?  More realistic?  I don't understand.

If it is to balance tin cans carrying 2h swords or becs, then it's a misdirected attempt at fixing a problem without looking at the real issue, which isn't the amount of armor they have, but the fact that they can even move on foot.  When I first played this mod, I chuckled a bit to myself when I saw a black armor wearing guy chase down a peasant and proceed to kill them with a sword and shield with lightning fast speed.

I don't know if anyone else paid attention in school, but that kind of armor was only meant to be used on a horse...  a 10 year could outrun anyone decked out in plate.  The fact that they can swing weapons with any amount of speed is kind of ridiculous.  It'd be like C-3P0 on speed.  Why that armor doesn't have some sort of enormous movement and swing speed penalty is beyond me...  but therein lies your problem - dudes running around in the heaviest of armor, swinging the heaviest of weapons with no penalty.  It's just silly.  Fix that and your tin can problem is gone.

What Reinhart says looks true. I dont play strategus (was considering looking for a clan sometime in the future) just crpg so this makes it look like playing will actually cost gold. At what gear level does it actually cost less gold in upkeep than what you are winning? Anyone know the magic gear combo to actually make money yet?

Also, is the idea that you have to play strategus to make money now? *confused*

I may be in the same boat.

In my opinion, the quickest way to lower the population of archers and left-click spammers is simple:

Raise the team-kill penalty

I swear, if I'm not getting arrows in the back, I'm getting sideswiped by a teammate tin can in a tear/bec frenzy.
