That being said, didn't we originally attack LLJK an equal sized faction? They all just fled behind party boy so they could call in poppa kesh for help despite the fact that bird clan has enough gear to plate out thousands of troops.
Oh man this post, so much dumb.
1. Only in terms of roster size, and not actives since you like to differentiate the two. LLJK had about 6-7 active and semi-active people total. The same 6 people people joined BIRD clan. Of those 6, only 4-5 were active in the past few weeks due to vacations, life, etc.
2. Most of us simply did not and do not care about strat so when Partyboy expressed interest in leading the faction we said sure why not. It didn't matter to us if we lost to Hero Party, EU came in and wiped us out, or whatever. Phantom was stepping down anyway since he got a nice, big internship and neither I nor Spyde had any desire to lead as well. I had planned to quit at the beginning of December myself but Smoothrich decided to attack us so I stayed around to help to a degree.
3. You and this poppa Kesh thing, Egan, is how I can tell you are just an idiot who listens to Smoothrich too much and his trolling. I know Kesh is responsible for deformed babies, women's promiscuity, or whatever ill you can imagine but the facts are simple: He has never told us what to do. In fact, if Kesh who I hardly know gave me some kind of strat demand I would simple laugh in his face. I have done what I have wanted the entire strat cycle.
4. You are right we pooled what resources we had to gear out what troops we had. Did you expect us to fight in peasant gear? Not a single one of our armies have been shiny except for mine. Everything has been a motly blend of plate, cav robes, then whatever we could find. Sorry to dissapoint you Egan but you got tied down into a protracted war where you outmanned, outskilled, and outgeared your opponent. I would figure a clan that held off Hospis originally would know that decent planning can do a lot despite the differences.
5. You have thousands more of troops, so not sure why you are complaining about that number in the first place other than being a whiney baby.
