The Arcani are based off of the Areani which was an actual Roman secret unit most noted for it's activity in ancient Britain.. Much Like the Sarmarcian Raiders clan, it is loosely based off of a real faction, which is fine. I don't get why you're griping and complaining to be perfectly honest. There are far worse clans out there right now than this.

Do me a favor, and re-read the bolded part as many times as you need to in order to get my point.

Do me a favor and be less retarded, if at all possible. Your point is moot as it has nothing to do with what I wrote. Did I say I have a problem with this clan or what its based on?

Ugh this just reminds me of the horribleness that was RTW, making up fictional units like the "arcani" :(

Again, they went with Arcani and it's description because of the fact that it was more recognizable to most who played that enjoyable franchise, and cooler sounding in general; but still, this clan takes most of it's elements from the Areani, much like the Sarmacians do with the Samaritian faction, so no, my points not moot.

I'm just going to guess that you're not a retard or a hypocrite that doesn't want to admit that he's wrong and that you simply have a shitty grasp of the English language; something I suggest you go with, as you already come off as one of the bigger try hard douche bags on this forum.

You bitched and moaned about it being a fake RTW faction, I corrected you by saying that it was loosely based off of the RTW and the actual historical faction and then you got overly defensive.

Now go shit in someone else's thread.

It's you whose grasp of the English language is shitty, broheim. I did not say that this clan was a fake RTW faction, hahah. I said that RTW made up a fictional unit, Arcani. As you can see there was as smiley, which would suggest it was not, shall we say, overly serious.

It's also douchebag, not douche bag.

If correcting a mental error on my part in using "faction" instead of "unit" is your best response, then it's disgustingly obvious who was right here. Thanks for proving my point in the aforementioned post, bro.

Feel free to get the last word in though. Make sure it's witty!

If your point was that you're retarded, then yes, no problem, it was quite adequately proved.

Whut, I'm not trolling. I was simply making a light-hearted statement that I disliked how RTW made up completely fictionalized units (Arcani, Urban Cohorts being the leetest of all Roman legions etc).. which Darkkarma then construed as some kind of super hate speech against your clan, which it clearly was not. I do like the theme.

To be fair, I was pretty drunk when I checked the forums before I went to bed last night. If I took it the wrong way, then I apologize, man.

Version 1:  Xant I think the point that Karma was trying to get across was that you could have worded your opinion in a nicer way that didn't come off as arrogant, pompous, or for that matter just straight up bitch made.

Version 2:  Xant I think the point that Karma was trying to get across was that your opinion sounded condescending and you could have phrased it in a nicer way.

See how nice the English language cleans up.

But in all honesty Xant you're totally entitled to your opinion and I even half agree with you. Rome Total War (in my opinion) should have stopped with Praetorian Cohorts seeing as they were some of the Roman's most elite soldiers.  However, it's a video game and if it followed history to a tee it would be the most boring game on the entire planet. The Roman's weren't known for their ability to conquer as much as the ability to share technology and protect surrounding countries who (at first) willingly wanted to become protectorate's of the Roman empire during it's peak.  Hollywood and Sega sure know how to make history more interesting don't they?

Long story short.

We thought the Arcani characters in another video game were sick so we made a clan for this video game.

Really, not mad just explaining why we made this clan the way that we did.

How do you work this thing??

@everyone OMG GUIZ E-PEEN MEASURING CONTEST GOING ON! #wtfisthiseven?

But yeah, I would like to join Arcani.  My main is Artene_III (soon to be IV, I think).  I frequent the NA_cRPG_1 battle server, am usually cool and collected (WTF, RIGHT THROUGH MY BLOCK, OMFG) and...yeah, been talking to the powers that be in Arcani about joining it for awhile.
