Prepare For War(s)
Hokai. So me and Jim (and some beer) have worked out a vague plan that'll escalate this clan, the TPA, FSN, and anyone in conjunction with either org or clan to the top.
Now; the primary target as this rampage starts should be unofficial clans. They tend to have the least experience and skill. After we've conquered that, we move on to official clans. These clans shall be worked by date (newest clans to oldest) This will probably take the longest amount of time to accomplish; there is a ridiculous number of official clans out there (80 something I think.) and roughly, what, 40 of us in the org or allied clans? With about 15-25 members in each clan, that makes for over 1.5k people we have to kill '._. It's not a simple task that can be tackled and downed within a month. Full control = maybe a year. Now after the official clans are all down, we move on to orgs. Why, you ask, did we do clans first instead of orgs? Clans have a few good members each, as the elites are passed out along the forum inadvertently. On the other hand, anyone can join an org with their uberly elite friends, making for some tough pickings out there. We will, again, start with the weakest orgs and work our way up. The final target should be BOB, Best Of The Best, as it's pretty much an all-star roster for TB.
Now the planning itself (specifically) will take a few weeks at best. There's been a lot of enthusiasm for this, especially from people like CoKe who are serious about taking this to the top. The 3 main reservoirs of members we have control over and any other small amounts of members that are in the TPA from different clans should make for a nice and varied army. We'll need specialists for every single mod out there (that'll be used in war, anyways. Stuff like Judo, Sambo, Taek Kyon, Wushu, Classic, etc.) and some good leaders. Note that when we add up all of the members we have a somewhat more then decent amount, and all of them have their own separate skills that need to be incorporated.
Once again, a reminder; this will not be an easy task. It won't fully be about fun either; it's serious business for serious clans.
So... the start will be slow. We'll need people willing to scope out the members of other clans as reconnaissance units, people helping to specify the plan more, the general soldiers, and any commanding units. Don't expect these clans and the TPA to skyrocket to the top with amazing force and speed.
As a rule of thumb, any clans who wish to avoid conflict may surrender over their members to our army and submit themselves to our control without a fight. Hopefully, there will be a handful who do this to add to our numbers and speed up the pace.
