Armys? ARMY LEADERS READ!

Post by Guest »

Alot of you probaly dont care about this and probaly about 50% of the people reading this has never even met me. But for the other 50% that know me and are in an army I'm telling them that I'm combining RT with ACR and after that I'm retireing from being leader and founder of RT. And for 10% of people here who are army leaders then I'm telling you that sure its fun to lead a army at first and feel all powerful but then you start to realize that 90% of people on TT don't care one little bit about your "Little Strong Army". No offence to any other armys but I think the only 3 armys that actully got to the top were VT, BMT and Barons.
And to all the RT members that have been with us since we started, :rockon:. Thanks Hallu!


Happy Tanking,

A long time ago, there used to be clan battles. A long time ago clans used to be important and respected as a force in-game.

If you want to create a clan, keep this in mind. It will most likely turn out as a social group (no problem with that), but you shouldn't go bragging about it in-game. Bragging rights are earned by winning. If you want to get together a group of competent players and start some clan battles, be my guest. It would be great to bring that type of gameplay back to ThinkTanks. Just keep what I mentioned in mind.

Yes, long ago. If only there was that kind of respect for armies once again. Most new army leaders don't understand what armies are really ment for.

In an attempt to outline "new" armies, when compred to the "old" armies, I came up with the following:

-"Old" armies: Armies that have been around for a long time. UF, SA, FI, and VT (I forget who was named as #5...) UF and FI are very inactive, SA and VT are only now coming out of full inactivity. All four are full of quality players, aka veterans, and of decent people. I can't speak too much for any besides SA, but as far as I can tell... the "old" armies are for talking with friends (on a somewhat more intimate level than these public frums) and occassionally having a few quality in-house games (aka practices). SA and VT are currently setting up a scrimmage, the first to happen between any of the Top Five in over a year.

-"New" armies: Armies that have been around for a shorter time (meaning every army created since VT, the newest Top Five Army). These armies are made almost entirely of new players, aka those who joined since the Top Four went inactive about a year ago. In general, these armies change leadership, membership, even names (aka merging) at an alarming rate - too quickly for any real teamwork or comraderie to come from it. Perhaps to make up for this, these new armies are very active. But with little organization and commitment, these new armies are almost always doomed to fail. If a new army can become stabilized... then you almost certainly have a new "Top Five Army".

My $0.01 on the topic of armies as I see it.

^ That was cancelled. Go to the BMT Forums (Link: http://bmtforums.forumotion.com/index.htm) To find out why.

Anyway, a lot of new armies ARE dying, and that's not good. Well, if you're an army hater like 44, that is good. The main reasons have probably already been outlined by jedireb already, and they are very true reasons. If you make a new army, it is probably recommended to get advice from people who know what they're doing. People from armies like VT or UF are good people to talk to, and peeking around threads is also helpful.

Well, those are my 10 cents, probably worthless.
