Remove free gear for groups > 100

Looking at all the big red and grey unarmed blobs on the map this needs to be removed. They are quite secure already, because you need an army of 1/3, but with the free gear that are almost invincible in an arrack. Remove it either for groups > 100 or remove it at all, everyone should have had enough time to buy some stuff by now.

Just some examples:

Night time:00:00 to 00:00
Equipment:unarmed
Cargo: about 300 crates

Yeah sure... with my mighty 150 troops I can't even attack them (<1/3). And I'm not wasting my hard earned money on a hopeless fight.

Yeah sure... it only takes 6 days to get 100 troops.  :rolleyes:

Only a month and I can match up my troops with them  :shock:

Are you complaining about a single player not being able to take on a clan of 50 by himself?

If you could equip your army with like 25 +50 body armors, they would glance trying to hit you.

I do agree that it should only give peasant gear up to a certain amount of troops such as 100 or 250, but people shouldn't be running their armies with this mechanic in mind, it's a shoddy thing to do.

Big factions are doing it. I've seen quite a few 600 crates, 200 men unarmed and just so want to attack them....

Let me guess, stack plate?
1H stab is the fastest, strongest and longest 1H animation. There's no reason NOT to use it in all instances. I don't know if it's OP, but it's boring. 1H used to be fun because you had a fast (left), long (right) and the most devastating attack (stab) and had to choose the best attack for each occasion.

It would ruin the point of my Free Trade castle if I attacked them.
