Part of that is that 70% of clanned eu mercenaries are allied against them all mercing together every fight - makes it difficult to even get full roster in many battles. Makes sense that others would vulture in while they were busy fighting several of the largest eu factions, byzantium and grey order and kapikulu - doesn't make as much sense to be talking mad shit like they are super pro for joining a gangbang last and taking several of their fiefs behind their lines while they are outnumbered almost 3:1 in number of available mercs for battles. Most of those late night Sargoth battles ended up being all eu people on attackers side staying up to 4 am to fight a team of half na players in bugged equipment, not really a talking shit moment. Frankly, mercenaries are doing much better job than some of the other factions who were attacked by over half the map at the same time.
Their side of the fighting has always had excellent rosters with exactly the same clans fighting for them. I remember thinking during a battle, 'jeez they get some sick rosters'. Think it was this one, this was a Coalition battle though, so maybe you Mercs should do a cute smile and ask for some more Coalition aid. Tell me this is a bad roster.

http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=strategusbattlesarchive#!?page=strategusinfobattleroster&id=3896They got plenty of mercenary backing, just very weak turnout from especially their own but also closely allied factions. Perhaps all the turks, polaks and ruskies just don't do as much extravagant holidays as the more western clans do.
Besides, gangbanging one faction is just returning the favour. You don't get pity points from me anymore when the 30 man and very new Shu Han faction declared war unto the 100 man Crusader Alliance, only for them to be joined by the Coalition and Apostates.
