I think that's a great idea ToxicKilla. About switching gear, weapons and tactics during rounds. All the clan leader(or whoever is highest rank in clan) would say is "switch to Blah blah blah theme, and then the rest of the clan members would switch to said theme thus utilizing different tactics. I mean we have the gear for it. Not only can they do that between rounds but during the round: a pikeman can switch to an archer and back. [someone idiot is going to say, "uh you can't do that", and I'll have an anwser for them]
I have 5 characters and most of them have 2 or 3 different types and gear for it. Some can be cavalry, some can be ranged and some I can switch from one type to another depending on the map and the need of the team. So a mutil-themed clan is possible.
Cause what I see out there, in terms of clans, is pretty much nothing. WASTED PLAYERS AND WASTED EFFORT. I see a lot of clan tags but no tactics and rarely any theme whatsoever.
The only clans I've seen that remotely have an organized theme or battle tactic are LLJK and Fallen:
Fallen has this Mongol/Barbarian look and they mostly comprise of horn or nomad bowmen and just hang back and shoot, but do stick together(there are 1 or 2 swordsmen in there and ALL wear some sort of FUR on their armor/clothing).
LLJK I've seen make a formation of 5 or 6 bowmen wearing yellow sarranid gear with straw hats and would orders from a Black Knight, and they were pretty useful when they fought like that.
Other than those 2 clans amongst the thousands that we see out there, all players wearing clan tags are useless in battle.
See that's why I don't want to be in ANY clan because the dumbasses who make them usually just want ONE theme and are inflexible about it and definitely don't know shit about battlefield tactics(which do work in this game if done right). They just run around sporting clan tags like they're cooooooooooool and liquidate the clan/player recruiting pool.
This is why I want to have a flexible clan that can adopt many themes, but maybe keep to 3 or 4 themes that have a balanced mix of ranged, cavalry and infantry type classes.
I want this clan to have a general(something pertaining to combat) name and not some of the other stupid clan names that I see out there that don't mean shit or just sound cool and when read doesn't much say anything ABOUT the clan.
Oh, and we'll have a kickass banner. I used to work in games, know a lot about medieval and military history and I can come up with(or we can come up with) an awesome banner everyone else will want to copy. hmmmmmm, maybe I'll make some sample and post em, visuals usually attract people more, lol.
If you guys are reading this and are sick of your clan or your clan doesn't do crap or you have a buddy who's in a clan that wants out and wants to join a REAL one that will be a formidable clan or if there are any non-clan people who want to join a democratic type of clan that:
has ranks earned the old way(by time, merit and battlefield bravery)
a good theme(s)
no bullshit
no immature players(they'll be executed)
will teach and practice battlefield tactics
good times and good comradeship
then message me and just say, "I wanna join".
You don't have to suck dick like you do with other clans or bring your kneepads or, no fees or any other bullshit like that, or beg or ask, "are you guys recruiting can I please join"
or any number of silly things I hear clan members say to other non-clan members out there about joining.
And, don't worry I'll weed out the assholes as we go along.
