All you had to do was ask our mercs, I have never payed a merc for signing up for our battles (I came very close today when i was told they were leaving us because you were offering them gold, but then you raised the offer from 100k to 300 and 500K, so saved me from having to do something I have no desire to do - spend crpg gold on strategus in any way other than offering rewards for good performance in a  battle) - im just polite and friendly with most of those guys you think I pay and enjoy fighting with us.  I'm sorry arrowaine but you and greasy sage are the only ones I have known do that.  All you ahd to do was ask people we merc with and you wouldn't come up with such an obvious lie, though most likely its your way of rationalizing how you play.

P.S.  i actually really enjoy the fact you wasted that much crpg gold on strat - well worth losing that battle  :twisted:

either you are lying or either aller newdle and some other are so who should i belive ?

still was a pleasure to pay people to ensure we have fun figth for the community/xp on both side

also it is the first time we paid merc so considering the ammount of battle you guys did and the total amount of crpg money you waisted im still really far behind you :) trying to catch you up

Due to my inability to check my watch and show up on time secret support of your cause I did not appear at the start of the battle and got unsigned from the FCC side, thus granting you victory.

I demand payment, Aro!  :)
For while the fire in the heart of a single Remnant still burns... can Stratia truly have fallen?

kesh just want to win

Says the guy who just paid over 1 million in cRPG gold to get people to switch sides for one battle.

Kesh wanting to win = what a shit cheater
Aro wanting to win = perfectly acceptable

It is actually OK to want to win. If buying your way to victory is how you want to do that, well that's just fine.

Doesn't kesh offer 150k+ crpg gold for top mercs in his battles? I'm sure if you went through all his mercenary threads it would add up to 20-25 million crpg gold (could be a lot more considering the amount of hours he dedicates to playing crpg). Also please remember that crpg and strat gold have no value at all, and it really doesn't matter what you do with it.

Pretty sure kesh has only offered rewards for maybe 5-8 battles this strat, usually the total rewards available add up to about 100k and sometimes other people have pitched in towards that. so id say kesh has spent at most 1mil crpg rewarding top performers for specifics battles.

Nice try arowaine. we offer rewards in specific fights but the guys need to earn them. We do not pay off people to throw the game after they sign for the other team. chicken shit move. used to have respect for you.

So: 185k + 100K + 100K + 100K + 100k =585k
Less than you thought.
Doesn't count any special deals with players or any of that jazz, only the publicly declared amounts.

Might be other battles further back, but that's like towards the middle of the VE/LCO war where I stopped.(page 6-8)
Nope that was it.

yeah I was doing my normal 100K, but then arrowaine basically copy pasted my post and raised it to 170k so I raised mine to 160K to be competitive, saws Arys' post about useful peasants and thought it would be nice to give a 25k award for someone useful to the team (like when you break forward spawns a lot Anders).  The big thing is I don't want to"buy" mercs
(click to show/hide)
- but I like rewarding good performance on key battles (5 over 12 months sounds about right) and most of the guys that show up for battles are people I like and play a lot of strat battles with so it feels good to occasionally have a big battle with awards for bravery.

I said it's OK to pay mercs and that no one should be vilified for it. You reply with a "but Kesh is still more wrongbad" argument. Did you actually pay attention to who you were replying to?

A clan call Free Companies complains about mercenaries being paid.

Again, not at all related to what's being discussed. No one is upset that allers made 500k for one battle. That's fine. He certainly earned it. The real issue is with Arowaine, not the mercs who were paid. I guess some people expected a more noble attitude from him, instead of:

i just reflect what fcc does sir im sorry to copy you!

I guess he could be referring to something that happened years ago in Strat 2? If he wants to lower himself to what he perceives as our standard, that's his choice. If he wants to give away whole heirlooms just to beat us, that's also his choice.

What are we disagreeing about, again? Call me daft, but I'm not seeing it.

I will close the thread. My point is made. I have no problem with rewarding people on your side for doing well...

But paying off members of the other team when they are hired against you because you are afraid to fight them is weak and pathetic.
