Gawd what a lot of spam. I suppose it shows your cheerful side, which does not seem appropriate for a fallen brigade. Nasty irony would seem more appropriate than high spirited hi-jinx, but WTF do I know? Anyways, I used to be part of a guild that used to be part of a guild called 'The Fallen'. They dominated, then split up, beat each other into nothingness then resurrected as 'The Fallen Knights'. But that was the guild I was a part of. Same thing happened, we dominated, then were torn assunder from the inside and all fell apart. Watching the One who did this to us and our world, several of us banded together as a mercenary group called the '13 Knights', not daring to accept the 'Fallen' tag, but letting everyone know our connection to this ancient past. We started out honourable, trying to reclaim the past. But that failed. Gradually, battle by battle, we adopted the 'evils' of our Enemy. The very bases of our guild, and, I must admit, of my leadership, fell to the wayside. I starrted allowing witches and warlocks (aka hackers) into our alliances and throwing a blind eye- all that did was make us lose true and trusted allies, and even made us look suspicious. And this is what destroyed us; us and all our allies.
Crushed by this experience, several of me and my knights just stopped gaming altogether. We thought, 'how can you win when the enemy has all the money?'. We had, in the past, won many battles thanks to brilliant strategies and the trust of many allies, but in that world 'money' was all that mattered (Cignare, if you're reading, I concede defeat in Miras). But we had stopped. We learned that good rarely prevails, and in order to succeed you must adopt the tactics of the wild animal, and show no mercy. Money is power and power is every thing.
Then I found Calradia- or whatever this world is supposed to be a version of. I must admit I suck at this game, tho I favour hybrids which would cause troubles. Well the fact is is that I'm old, and my reflexes are slower. Still, if I practiced this game (I started on Crpg, and with a couple months missed in between) and am now actually getting kills. On native I did ok, which got me back here. So, while my KD rate sux, I think I'll get better, plus I might get the old guild back together, who were always aware they were the progeny of 'the Fallen'. We may not be the greatest players but we had other advantages. We were all older, and we have money we could donate to servers and such. Oh, and all NA. I'm only in contact with a few, but perhaps we could pull the group together again. We are all older, but we do not demand to be in battles (if we suck, sorta like I do right now), but if we could leave 13K attached (as a knightly order say, not a guild) we could do all we can to advance the clan. All 13K ever asked was to disrupt the order and to ensure continuing warfare against all men. Is that so bad?
