David senior moderator buddy, your loathing for H1 has been consistent in your postings. Seeing as your impartiality is a joke, I don't see why FF lets you strut around thumping your chest in the forums. Why don't you pipe down and stick to answering mundane noob gameplay questions.

Sometimes when you win, you lose.

What was H1, now H10, is killing the game on W5 by total domination so it becomes a farming game.

That is not the fault of their players, it is a problem with how the game works, made worse by some of the second age changes (bigger Houses for a start). The only way to improve things is for H10 to break into two so people would be willing to try fighting them (and each other) again. This is simply not going to happen. Factions are not going to leave H10, the first ones to do so would be wiped out.

What will happen is that players who like the fighting part of the game will leave W5 for other worlds, and maybe even leave the game completely.

I will be staying on W5 for now in case things do change but I will be logging in there much less and trying to find a world where the game is still a war game.

It would be nice if all the other factions went into 1 house theres a lot of good factions out there but to many are splitting into there own house there needs to be a huge merge or massive alliance to take on h10. I have no clue if it will happen, hopefully it will if it doesnt world 5 is dead and buried.

Well Genghis Khan did it and if he can do it then supermarioman can

YEAHHHH BUDDDY

I started world 5 back in sepotember and it was my first world, I have been in no wars in this world so really want to try and dust of my pikes and at least try and be competetive, its common sense that houses need to unite but sometimes people like to be HM of a small house and hope everything falls into place and they grow into a super power, unforunately that wont happen

Well hoping for better gameplay for all I will say again how H 1 / 10 gets it done. They have a well organized management structure starting from the top with Gendry and radiating down through excellent faction heads. Despite some of the drivel posted here, there is also a code of conduct that is almost always adhered to. It was not done by bullying or weasil moves.

So come on then you sullen farmers, I have revealed to you the innermost workings of how to get er done, drop your manure encrusted wooden hoes, start networking, and pick up a frikin sword.

I do not and have not criticised H10 (as they are now) players. They have been almost unfailingly polite even when threatening me. I know it takes good structure and leadership to do what they have done, I was part of that sort of structure in W1 with GGSG (who became GGSG Outlaws) and getting to that dominating position is great fun and hard work. Once the dream is realised though it is less fun as there is not a lot left to do.

I am sure the fighters in H10 will soon be wondering what to do next and who to kill. Either they will break their own rules and look for excuses to force a fight with a much smaller House or they will also get bored. With a bit of luck that boredom will force an internal revolution.
