*nods* As far as war is concerned, the number of clan is not the most important factor. I would like to know how many figters are on each side.

Why is there even commentary going on about how many clans/warriors/hitters/support are on one side VS the other. Its not a huge surprise. That's what those silly little things called alliances and such are for. ~HiS~ Indeed. If it's such a big deal, less complaining, more making allies, perhaps? And yeah, what dragonet said. It is possible to have four clans with three people each against one clan of around twenty. I doubt anyone would be saying the four clans are "ganging up" on the one.

For now I'll leave it more of a mystery so that both sides can equally share in privacy; unless of course L'In feels otherwise.

*shrugs* Your way, I guess... It would also be nice to have a scoretable kept, of the zeroings, I mean, because right now, it's quite blurred.

I will bring my argument here rather than muck up Lyric's obit. I think what Hairbear was referring to was the driving force behind it. Instead of differences of opinion, principle, politics even, this war feels more like it happened because of vanity. It feels opportunistic, cheap. And I kind of agree with her there. On the other hand, I love seeing action, and getting a bit of it for myself too. It's been too long since the obits... sorry, the 'Casualties' section, was getting filled at this rate. It's refreshing; I bet the streets were parched. Idony summed my thoughts up better than I did. This war has the feel of vanity. It was an opportunistic show of force that I find vulgar and offensive. Hairbear, allow me to disagree with you. One should never enter a fight if said fight leaves you vulnerable for the next one... Planning is an important part of good leadership. L'inconnu did well on their first fight, but I am not the only one to have noticed that they withdrew from the fight quite quickly, a feat which had a big influence on Ferry losing the fight. I think they jumed the gun, in the hopes of making a name for themselves. They haven't got back that which they lost, and are thus vulnerable, but that was to be expected. That's the game of war... Anyone wishing to defeat a strong enemy will wait for an opportunity when the opponent is weary and tired. However, there is worse than losing a fight, there is losing it, or even winning it with dishonour. I have yet to see the outcome on both these... I completely disagree with Black_dragonet in his earlier comments. L'inconnu fought hard against the HA and CC. They hit me hard early in the war. The first 3 weeks they pounded me with HW and I know they spent untold fortunes necroing blood. If it weren't for L'inconnu, the war would have ended much sooner. They were valiant warriors and were prepared for war when they battled against us, this war angers me. L'inconnu is fighting an honorable battle. They were infiltrated by a spy, they dealt with said spy. Kaelani knew the possible consequences of her actions. I find vanity the worst of all "sins". It has little purpose than to build egos in those of that are weak natured. It is a hunger that is never sated and in the end it destroys all that loves it.

I agree with everything you say save the fact that they were prepared for war. As a whole, they didn't have enough funding. They're good, they're very good warriors, but they entered the previous war with not enough funding and weaponry, which is why they didn't manage to last 'till the end. When they were not around anymore, HA could get an upper hand they didn't have until then. This lack of funding explains why they couldn't fully recover from last war, and why they are now vulnerable. As for the reasons why they are being attacked, it is most lear to me that for spying, and sucking at spying, Kaelani deserved the zeroing. For the rest, I lack factual infomation on the subject to have a precise position.

Yes, we're vain because we hit them before they hit us (if we ignore Kaelani in the equation entirely). Although they hired the Splinters before we hit them. So I'm a touch confused on your train of thought. The reasons for this war, as stated numerous times, are plenty. The only reason Kaelani was mentioned was to give the City a timeline of actions. Oh and, good to see you still kickin', Andre. Im enjoying the daily bath.

(Yes, I'm non-combative you got questions, send me a mail) *raises an eyebrow* So, you belong to a clan that is under attack, or so says your banner, and you go neutral? Interesting. The only honourable way to go neutral I can think of is to die. If you don't, you just don't fill your side of the bargain to your clan. To each their own, I guess. The opposing side says that they shall hold hits on those who declared themselves non-combative, yet you comment on the fact that they attacked you before. It might be an intent at humour, but I don't really find it appropriate... Eventually, the saying goes "All is fair in love and war", it's not about politics...
