Congratulation to the Mercs.
Way to go guys. Even if the system is not working as intended, that was pure genius.
Shame I couldn't be there and see it with my own eyes.
well it wasn't that crafty, many clans were thinking about that even from the first day when the spawn sistem was introduced.
this sistem is flawed so that the faction with the best equipment is able to prevail even if the difference on numbers is huge(we could see 10000 vs 200 battles like this)
also there could be huge disadvantages also with the numbers of mercs hired, where a faction with 35 mercs vs a faction with 60 mercs would most likely lose due to the spawn, no matter the number of troops(in addiction to the normal penality that a battle being outnumbered like that would have resulted).
this imo could be fixed adding more spawns, like 3 per team, or adding a considerable time(ovviously they should find a balanced amount of that)to disable the enemy spawn(best solution imo)
however we can agree that the result of the battle was mainly due to the mistake of the attackers, and the mercs were ready and prepared to take advantage of that, so congratulatuons to them
