How many of the old clans are still in existance? Just to define old lets take an arbitrary measure say...clans formed pre Jan 2001. I know Shades are still going (although not in STW much) Doragons and Rages. Anyone else still around?

How many people you still got active in Kenchi now? Does Kag still pop in? I see him from time to time as we are in the same squad in WW2 online.
Wraith
Rage; Shades; Wolves; Kenchikuka; Doragon.
The oldest five if I'm not mistaken. Fears I would include, but umm everytime I see a Fear they are no longer in their clan name (Fucyuman, NCBeach, AMP, Uglies, etc.)
That means the once 3 clans that ruled after Kenchi's demise are all gone, Chaos, Chain and Fears.

It all depend on what active means...as in playing the game or just being around as a group...
On a good night you might see 2 or 3 of the 'old' clans members on-line playing but often they have spread out but kept some contact (as Rage did with Kyodia Clan on Delta Force LW)
Monsta refuses to remove members names from web site because even if away they are part of the family to some degree....unless they break some kind of law (not sure yet what that would be!) they have a place...
The 'vets' as we get called like it or (arrogant or not) are the backbone of the on line game and with the new MTW on the way we are needed more than ever....we set the standard and the social order....
You will notice how after the 'let down' of MI/WE alot of the vets left (mainly due to the inbalance of the units and the stale form of battle that it created)...thus a new breed developed and the attitude in the game room was sour....abuse went through the roof.
Even though we had 70-100 players a night back in 'ye old days' Monsta would know at least 80 of the 100....and that included 'undercover' players...but now...only a few names stand out.
The nature of the game changed thus the players changed....tactics/wargame element was swapped for rush/spear/gun games... massive koku etc...anything over 5-8k was once thought of as stupid if not strange....the level of play also fell...soon everybody could stand behind a wall of spears and shoot....
Playing standard has gone so low...70-80% of old timers would score 8-10 ....where as the 'new breed' only 30% hold that level....this does not mean they dont win...but their actual playing skill was/is lower....gun monkeys and spear jockeys have dominated.
Another reason why alot of players shunned stats 103...because unless you belonged to the 30%.....you were dead.
I dont need to name the remaining 30% they know who they (some new guys aswell)....and the other 70% also know who they are.....because they can be found in the local gun shop...carrying a copy of Command and Conquer just incase MTW requires skill.
MTW....moaning vets needed more than ever!
Well I can say with 100% certainty that Shades will be back for MTW. We have about 10 guys on the roster at the moment and to my knowledge they are all getting the game. Hopefully it will be like old times again, Im looking forward to some more of those old 3am finishes I used to have http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif

Yeah Kage is back from time to time. Really only Tanaka, Tera and DV are active on MI at the momemnt although I play(ed) STW almost every night. BND is waiting for a new computer, while Rath (EDIT: who played yesterday http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/biggrin.gif), Gambatte, Darksword, Teru, Kage and I'm guessing a host of older members will be back for MTW.

It would be nice to see some of the old STW clans making an appearance in MTW. Are there any No Fears still active?
Wraith
Hey all.
Ive started playing shoggy again now ive solved my comps probs
A few of us Tigers / chaos / chains are coming back for medievil, not sure what will be happening with regards to a clan tho... maybe we will resurrect a golden oldie?
So Pussiecat, who were you in chaos ?
Just to let you guys know that we are still alive, we do venture into MI every now and again, but we are not that keen mainly due to the reasons Monsta mentioned............
At the mo, we are currently get our arses kicked all over the place (some thigs do not change) playing Counter Strike and Delta Force....
From what I can gather we will be back in force for the release of M:TW
PussieCatOfChaos of course http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
Great to hear from Kyodai! Was wondering where you guys had gotten to.
Now I can sing my 'shoot all the Pompey scum' Southampton songs, while I play MTW. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif

I am afraid our old bud Pompey has left us.. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/frown.gif
But, we nearly all support crap teams (Oldham, Chesterfield, Bury, etc), so feel free to have a go at us http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/tongue.gif
Hi wolf http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
yes Mag, some nice battles were fought in the tourny's back then - hope the same spirit is revived with medievil
Maybe luck wont follow your round so much there http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/tongue.gif lol
** Funky **
U support a bad team - :lol
At least you are not the laughing stock of the league. 11 points clear in the league with 8 match's to go, and we end up third
Im a Wolves fan
[and Im really embarased about admitting it]
Wolf hangs his head in shame http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
There seems to be alot of us X Chaos about still
So we cant of been all that bad then - can we http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
Don't feel bad Wolf. Bayer Leverkusen were top of Bundesliga in Cup Final and Champions League Final and lost all three of the trophies. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/biggrin.gif some people just can't win things.
By the way the only No Fear making a comeback under the old clan name will be me (at the moment) http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif maybe more to come and some new recruits.

Didnt know you were a NoFear Toda....so how many of you guys still about then? I seem to remember there were quite a few of you when we fought in the campaigns.
Wraith
That is why it says NoFear Legend in his signature Wraith. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
note to Wolf - remember who I support
Ah who wants to support a good team anyway. It must be boring supporting a team that wins all the day: then when you start to lose everyone is queuing yp to slate you. *ahem* Manure *ahem*
Apologies again for bringing up football out of topic again. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif
