Gorath, didn't you become a lord start a clan, and enslave peasants recruit people?

Just sayin...

And even if you wanted to bring some kind of derp RP into it, my clan had no lords nor peasants.  It was a barbarian grouping together with other barbarians to rape and pillage.  No feudal system there.   :P
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?

there was no lordship to our clan, we are/were a ragtag group of barbarians/mercenaries, more akin to the "Expendables" than any feudal system where we actually had loyalty to some overlord, instead a group of crazed bastards would be more fitting

semantics  8-)

Not really.

1)  I never ordered anyone around
2)  By proxy, noone ever "served" me (serviced maybe, but a little prison sex now and then is good for morale all around)
3)  I had no title, nor did anyone else beyond "recruit" and "member".  Socialism/equality all around.

this was also true, after he left we have actually become even more ruled by the overall mercenary company, instead of leadership being alloted to one individual, its really a nice change from so many clans which are ruled by an individual or an oligarchy

Upkeep is the best thing that has happened to cRPG

yes, but at a lower cost with lower chance, not the current rate.

also don't come here and talk about best thing that ever happend when you've only played crpg since april so it would seem, you have no place here.

I still say plated charger needs to be removed or nerfed down to shit, because there will always be people without shame, trying to benefit from their unfair advantage.

Fair play ftw! Don't use my old friend items!

Nerf it??? LOL

Obviously you never tried it.  Or you are a low armour guy and the bumps hurt, i mean cmon people. Stop saying "NERF my COUNTER!!"

Plated charger is 4.5k to upkeep, so you get a few rounds max, and any good light cav can 1 hit it with couched lance.

There are no my old friend items, just unblanced and OP items, like xbow.

Plated charger is like a tank, and every medium skilled player with a heavy lance can kill shitloads of enemies with this tool, because it simply never dies. Ask Finn about it.

And my old friend items = OP items.

I've played cRPG since it was first ever released to public ( obviously had breaks, but have played every build and seen all changes ) and it is most definitely one of the best additions. It was boring as hell when three quarters of the players on the battlefield were all in some kind of huge plate all using the same weapon, lol.

16k is absolutely nothing in terms of gold, which is what the guy is complaining about and when you want to use plated charger with good armour it's not a surprise it went quickly, that's how it should be, there are people who have gold into the hundreds of thousands and into the millions, they are the sort of players that are able to use that stuff for a while.

If people want to use the very best of everything for more than 20 minutes, then they are going to have to dedicate some time to earning the gold to sustain it. You don't need the top equipment to have fun.
