who fucking cares about rescources. The mercs are the fucking problem. If u see HCE (+occitan) being able to fucking compete with the whole map, what would u do there to get a fair roster with HCE involved? Like, u guys are the biggest faction now, james just claimed that they have 300 members, who could fucking compete with that? (But Grey order, who does not even give a single shit about NA) And u cant let them out, cuz when they farm for like one more month they'll probably have more troops than I have lol. Well, still they won't have the shitton of silver we have, but still, silver and troops dont fight a war. The men on the battlefield do.
