I'm a bit confused atm, is it only KBG that has a problem with us (and why)? Also what clans in our alliance support us, who else hates us?

It would appear after attending an alliance leadership meeting that many of the existing clans have concerns about the tag 'Duchy of Wessex' putting an early target on the alliances back. Since we do not yet have the numbers to bring into the game, this is a valid concern. We bring risk but no reward.
Our focus then is to recruit new members and become more of a force as a militia within Imperium as well as the alliance as a whole. If we are successful than we can re-evaluate.
ah ok, but what did Duchy do in DF1 that made so much hate?
Took control of half the map, which set off a world war for control of Agon.Quote:

Maybe its pride or misjudgment but last minute bomb like that is not something I wanna get from ALLIES with a shitty ultimatum. Idk I gotta smoke a bowl and let this sink in
Wow this is probably the dumbest thing I've seen out of your so called allies.
Personally I'll bow out graciously of Duchy and whatever crew I have will pester Imperium and its allies.
You bring risk but nothing else? Only thing they have going for themselves is numbers. OTG is just a zerg mess that I'm sure will figure out how to fight someday. KGB the only presence I saw out of them was Uber whining about the elementalist class. Imperium is the only one that seems to bring anything to the table.
The alliance is already off to a bad start and will only get worse as time progresses.
The time is not right for us to go it alone in the world of Agon. With the numbers we have it would be very difficult to level our prowess because we will have to be fighting over mob spawns with bigger guilds. I have created a Militia under Imperium called Lumen Solis Victrix. This militia also includes SSR members as both clans are in the same boat when it comes to numbers. LSV was the "parent" clan of the Duchy, SSR, Anvil society, etc. The latin also goes with the Imperium theme so I thought it made sense for both reasons.
While under the Militia we can continue to recruit for the Duchy and at the same time be able to progress our characters. When the time is right we will branch out with The Duchy of Wessex banner and once again establish ourselves as one of the top clans around. I hope everyone can see why I made this decision and come to support it.
If anyone has any concerns or questions please let me know.
Yeah, I was pretty pissed to say the least. Honestly, if we had the numbers to compete for mob spawns early in game I would have just had Wessex go it alone. But as I said. Time isn't right. If we had known this to be an issue from the get go we would have found another alliance to build relations. But unfortunately it didnt work that way.Quote:

So this is the route we are going with as the only viable path to follow in game as a clan. No matter though, we will out fight, out produce, out organize and out class the rest of the militias. It is all a matter of fighting/training as a team. Once we demonstrate how critical we are to the success of the alliance then we can go back and re-examine this setup.
Frankly, I am still so pissed about it that I am taking time off tomorrow so that I can be in game and adding value from the start.
I think you did make the right decision, at launch it will be hard to fight over a mob spawn with no ally s and fewer clan members then others. I just get a few things about this, if Wessex is in Imperium is there no difference in us being are own clan? What clans specifically have a problem with us? ( as i said before I like Inperium the others I just have not played with or don't care for them.)
