Last Balde battle was one of the crushing battle instead of equality of items. Very talented roster Nords had.

For Valhalla!

Nordsmens play cRPGs again? Am I missing something!?

The real brave warriors are fighting on Balde's side instead of fapping over their good performances in battles with ridiculously one sided rosters. Really lame that an entire faction gets prevented from properly participating in Strat because they are perhaps not such proficient forum warriors, and therefore get no roster support whatsoever. Hope a few of you skilled but cowardly independents realize that the fight is a much more true test of skill on Balde's side.

Fighting for the underdog till the end.

you mean the clan that has a castle, a city and 2-3 other villages as well as 3-4 allies in the area (including kalmar and ode) (and they have over 20k troops in the area) cant participate in strat and nords with their one village in the area (which they only took because its fenada) is ruining strat for a medium sized faction?

you say cowardly independents but please elaborate?

[Teeth]

I don't know about all that but take one look at the rosters of previous battles:

Consider the last battle and compare the amount of big names.Without trying to be condescending about the respectable efforts of the fighters for Balde, there were probably 3 players on their side who I'd consider top notch, whereas there are probably close to 30 top notch players on the side of Fenada. Now of course securing roster support is a part of being succesful in Strat, but this goes a little far. As far as I know Balde are a little German clan who keep to themselves mostly, they just can't compete with bagge sweet talking everybody into joining his fights. Not sure about all the diplomacy ties but it saddens me that independent(?) players like Knitler, Heibai, Qoray, Panos, Steevee and so on bandwagon with the faction with the already strong roster allies instead of taking a glance at the roster and deciding to help out poor Balde like I did.

I can tell you that always trying to fight for the weakest roster is a more fulfilling experience than padding your k/d with the rest of the big names. Also OdE Butan is fighting for Fenada?

[Osiris]

butan isn't in the Ode strat faction so i guess can do what he likes.
 I don't know maybe people saw nords take the village then saw Balde, Kalmar, ode and kapikulu armies line up to take it back for balde and decided to fight against the gangbang who knows.

As an independent myself i rely heavily on good roster support to be able to attack anyone. I would have to say if a faction with a castle and a city are too small and its cowardly to attack and ruin their strat than who exactly would i be allowed to fight?

Wat? With such rosters you are never the underdog. I was in the first battle on Nordmen's side, but that was also the last time I will fight for them, the disgustingly stacked roster made that battle a boring and sad rape. Balde didn't stand a chance, they still don't and it is not because of bad gear or bad leading, which are both pretty good, it is simply because they get the shit end of the Merc pool.

Which is for most people the side that does not get their faces raped in every battle, the side that has 30 amazing players to fight next to, the side where you can get a 5:1 k/d and look pro, the side that gains much more xp due to much higher kill rate. Winning the war because nobody wants to fight for the losing team and because the German guys with poor English skill don't go around teamspeaks to get all the skilled players. Truly a victory worth bragging about. Just trying to incentivize people to sign up for the underdog, because neither the game mechanics nor anyone else is doing it. All it takes is a little integrity.

and thats a nice thing you are trying there.  however i dont agree with your insight on the motivation for the guys fighting with nords.
