Though I should say that this strat was pretty pre-determined by the previous ones due to peoples lack of starting anew in terms of faction relations.
I dare say that will always be true, as some people take grudges to a new silly level in strategus. Many factions from the start already had planned out what they were doing, and I don't think that surprised anyone =\ I also see too many people start grudges and automatically treat certain people poorly simply because of a clan tag, instead of a per-individual basis. Then again, non of this should surprise anyone considering the sheer number of people in strat who are even biased to the point of xenophobia.
Regardless, I do like your hidden white messages ^^
