Mercenary etiquette

I'm kind've annoyed with the behavior of the players lately during strat battles. Here are some general tips I'd like to point out.

If you sign up for a battle, show up!
If you jump over the side of the castle 20 times in a row for no reason and die instantly, stop wasting lives!
If you make a sky ladder, destroy it!
If you are wasting the siege equipment, stop!

Well fact is, NA players are mostly casual normies not knowing mechanics & who would have no chance against competitive EU players on the same ping.

The goal of Strategus battles shouldnt be to deprive your enemies of players, but to have full roster both sides and have the gear/tactics/strategy win the day rather than lack of merc support.

There is no point to make roll-calls when number of players is less than 50. In this round of Strategus in 98%-99% of cases we accepted everyone who is on TS (usually no more than 20-25 persons) plus the rest (high level, friends or vell-known players) from applications. And you can be more than sure that 1/3 or half of them will not show up on battle.

It used to be that no one ever had enough mercs to use up all the ticks in a strat battle, so we'd allow trolls their fun.  That idiot who jumped off the wall and lost half his health so he could get killed by ten enemies at least kept ten enemies busy for a few seconds.

But yeah, time to start getting picky- taking down names and getting rid of the dead wood.

unfortunate but necessary, i dont think eu takes dickbutt anymore, he reports and messes around too much. one less merc is sometimes better, than the ticket\gear they waste, sometimes purposely.

Well for HCE it's safe to assume 1/4th of all Mercs signed up, will show up.
