Some other things should be mentioned about Black Company...
We're led by council, with each person having a certain responsibility. For example, I'm the Strategus Trainer - I make sure our new players get the info they need to be successful in Strat from the very start by actually playing the game and experiencing it, not by "READ ALL THE FORUMS". This means more back-and-forth, but it's also a more entertaining way of playing.
Our council system works out very, very well since one of equality of membership is an important part of who we are. Plus, our average player age is around 23-24 and leadership is a little higher still.
Although we're an independent clan, part of the FCC Strategus faction because it gets us in great fights since they're (probably) the most active and aggressive Strat faction (although heavily besieged at the moment).
We all come from a Strategus background of playing with the Fallen Brigade, so our general commanding style is mirrored on Fallen_Ramses. To this day, have yet to meet a better Strat commander.
