And we could pull more than 50% lolol

Yep. In terms of choosing an opponent as well.

If everyone was on their A game, we MIGHT have outpulled, and MIGHT have been a bit better in terms of skill. But that wasn't going to happen. Not with the clan we were fighting, and not with the planning as Joe says. To be honest, I think Forsaken was just "a war", to get us to do something. I think winning it was not a primary concern.

I've said it once in this post and I'll say it again.

If we actually put some effort into it we can beat them.
It's not always about Quantity.

I'm sorry to say it, but right now, we're not getting much of either. Not from the members, not from the leadership.

Every war we fight is crucial right now. The next war we have - if it's a defeat, it will bring us even closer to our demise. If it's a victory, it'll help take a step forward, but probably not by much. Right now, we cannot afford to take great risks like going for a major turnout and amazing effort and trying to take a huge leap forward - because now it's almost guaranteed to fail. At this point there is very little hope in asking our members to put 110% in for something unrealistic, because for one- who in the leadership can pull off another Great War turnout/effort? Only Gene, but he has enough to worry about.

We need the small steps. We need the easy wins. And yes we should hype them up and try and get the best turnouts and effort as possible, but we need to be holding the ace. We need a guaranteed victory.

If we're going to do something big now, the bottom line is IT CANNOT FAIL. The margin for error is getting thinner and thinner, and we need to stop being hopeful and be sensible and realistic when we make crucial decisions now. One more mistake and that could end it - not the clan, but any hope we have left of restoring WG to its former glory.

I second this notion.

Now back to the good part!

I second this notion.

I agree.

Suggesting clans to war is fine, but the RL or Warlord needs to have the final say, and let them plan it out themselves.

Of Course. Which is why we should be looking for Raid Leaders asap, even at the same time as council.

Well we need the new council to host the Raid Leader apps and so
