Mercenaries are always given the short end of the stick. I.E the most dangerous part of any battle. Usually the vanguard or the right flank. (the right flank of an army typically being the most difficult places to hold)

Cannon fodder, such is the life of a mercenary.

Not entirely sure what your getting at, we still have human employers for the most part. So its still relevant.

Actually have the guide, an a few others, saved from preguildfall so it means I've been slowly reading it. Though it has been a while and giving it another read shouldn't hurt. If I come up with any questions, sadly which will be most often en I'm fighting, than I'll pipe up to ask.

I figured making him simple, straight forward and pretty low on the scale would be a good start to getting into the arena again. Sadly it seems to have backfired as there's really not point if he doesn't have an opponent his range really. It seems even the lower tier PCs are too high for Iron. A fact which doesn't bode well it might seem for my first intro into the arena. >_>

No hurries. I know Tear mentioned about helping me as well, which Brandy is around Iron's ideal level and such. Not to mention I brush up on my arena 101 knowledge.


In other news, I also plan on hosting another one of my chivalry style brawls. Which is usually just an all low tier team battle. Though I'll probably start it after my current four way.
I don't think it would be all that useful to apply historical mercenary groups to this Orcish one. The most renowned Mercenary group of the middle ages was only known as such because they refrained from running away from every single fight, though the majority of the time they sat in the middle of a bidding war without fighting anyone. The main difference here is that although we would definitely be after gold, Orcs -like- to fight, unlike the vast majority of humans. So our motives and values are going to be a lot different. Humans may be perfectly happy to slaughter a village of defenceless peasants for free easy gold, but would Orcs? Not necessarily.


What does that have to do with anything?
Darn skippy you have a post due and it better be EPIC.


xD. Kay. @GreivousKhan, wanna be my partner?


I don't see why not.

The tyranny of Rilla must be brought to an end.

The only situation that stains a mercenary company's reputation is not obeying the contract. If the contract says to commit genocide, you commit genocide so hard Hitler would be proud. Refraining from committing said atrocity is what will stain your reputation.


Well along those lines usually mercenaries that switch sides mid battle are the kind of things that can give a company a bad rep. You should check out the mercenary companies of Italy during the middle ages.

Also you can say no to a contract, that won't give you bad rep, hard to agree to literal suicide in my mind...

That still doesn't stop me from associating 'lithe' with Elves though...


Tolkien's elves were stronger and more resilient than humans in his verse... Hence being OP as hell.

@MelonHead and @GreivousKhan

GreivousKhan, if you're aiming to use your Knight, may I see a CS? That is, if you're still interested.


I'll have to make said knight, Tier one at least don't take long, but I have post due for Skallas tournament and another match I'm in.
<Snipped quote by GreivousKhan>

Nay, there's a difference between slender and weak. And usually I see elves, and you can be skinny and still kick someone's ass, as thin little things. More willowy and light looking in stature.


Exactly.
