Why this post?
I have thought about this for sometime now and have decided that if I am to start something like this that now would be the time to do so. I have asked once or twice in-game if anyone would be interested in joining something like this or just having something like this on the server and so far responses have been varied. Because of this I thought I would post something up here on the forums.
What would this Mercenary Company be like?
How it would work is like this a faction or player gives the Company silver based on either the amount of men he would like to hire or for a higher price the entirety of a war. The silver made by such exchanges would then be divided among the members involved. The players would get an amount based mainly on faction rank. Ex. If a normal member gets paid 1 silver for a single battle an officer would get paid 2 or 3 silver. All the money will be divided among the player except for 10% of the silver earned which will go into the faction bank for purchases of armor and weapons. All members would be provided with food, housing, armor and weapons along with any other supplies needed. Although the Company will provide you with most things if we find you are using more supplies then you should be using you will then be required to either provide your own equipment or give a larger share of your earnings.
Would a faction like this have any allegiances?
The simple answer to this is yes. As to what allegiances it will have that is yet to be decided. With this being said it will have very few allies due to the nature of the faction.
Why a Mercenary Company?
Well I feel this is another simple answer. Firstly I think it is an opportunity to open up a new door in the world of Massivecraft. Something like this could possibly bring in a whole new way to play the game with instead of having soldiers in your faction you would just hire soldiers from other factions. In addition to this I think that this could become an amazing role play opportunity for all involved not only the Company itself, but the people/factions purchasing mercenaries. Lastly I think this is something that is needed on a Medieval Fantasy server like Massivecraft being that in the lore of many similar things like this existed.
