Aigle clan (before turning into LCR clan)
1. Soult

6/18/2010
4v4 Dresden (unranked)
7. Espadas (Two members) enjoy joining matches only to drop out of the match once it commences- usually within the first 5 minutes if the game. Until Clan Espadas can control these two dis-honorable clan mates of theirs-author recommends that no Espadas be allowed to join unranked matches.

6/19/2010
GENERAL OBSERVATION- More and more rabel players seem to be dropping out of games due to poor sportsmanship on their part and/or threatend by clan organization and therefor are less apt to enter to matches where clan cohesion is prevalent. Good matches are growing harder to come by.

[[N]Isaac_Brock]

Inspired by Von Croy, I too have been keeping track of games versus rabel and noting whenever there's a player of high calibre -- fights hard, stays to the end to support his teammates and show sportsmanship. And those who quit for the slightest reason -- losing their artillery, cavalry, lights, etc. For the most part, I concur with Von Croy's findings: That non-clan members show poor sportsmanship. Which makes finding good, dedicated players a rarity.

Here are the 15 most recent recorded matches:

1.
DATE: June 19, 2010
MAP: Borodino unranked
ATTACKERS: Raidernick97 and Isaac_Brock
DEFENDERS: GARZrabidamerican and GARZgatlglg

Raidernick97 left the game after camping and launching a suicide attack, leaving me alone to attack an entrenched position. Classy

2.
DATE: June 19, 2010
MAP: Italian Grasslands unranked
ATTACKERS: Vaas, Steiner, Isaac_Brock
DEFENDERS: m.warSpirit, Harry-give-us-a-Twitch, ^9[RUSH]^|Hitman

Harry quit about five minutes in while Hitman waited 35 minutes until fully engaged (and losing). Spirit stayed until the end, so kudos to him for sticking it out.

3.
DATE: June 19, 2010
MAP: Borodino unranked
ATTACKERS: Vaas, Steiner, Isaac_Brock
DEFENDERS: [Tabuk]Rustybaldr[FO], 4epai01, Madame O.

All three rabel players deserve credit. They stuck it out until the end and took their loss graciously. 4epai01 was particularly good as Russia -- fully exploiting their charge bonus.

4.
DATE: June 19, 2010
MAP: Lodi unranked
ATTACKERS: Isaac_Brock and BlueAces 21
DEFENDERS: Ncln and [TWD] TheDesertFox

The game was hosted by ncln, who quit the game, thereby ending the entire match, after he was charged from behind.

5.
DATE: June 19, 2010
MAP: Grassy Flatlands unranked
ATTACKERS: Louie, ncln, 5_Deadly_Venoms
DEFENDERS: Isaac_Brock, Comm.|{AA}War’s Angel, Hiram84

While all players stayed until the end, War’s Angel brought only cavalry and held back until Hiram and myself were almost dead. Then he launched a suicide attack which accomplished nothing. Great team player, eh?


6.
DATE: June 20, 2010
MAP: Dresden unranked
ATTACKERS: World Man, captranger, *{B.F.D.H}* Emperor Vale, Pally
DEFENDERS: GODS Justinowl, GODS Wisconsin Pride, Tac, Isaac_Brock

Poor Pally, playing on the side of rabel for this one. But at least they stayed for the most part. WorldMan quit early on in the game as he was getting thrashed. Captranger dropped only after his army was destroyed. The rest stayed until the end.

7.
DATE: June 20, 2010
MAP: Dresden unranked
ATTACKERS: Isaac_Brock, GODS Wisconsin Pride, Tac, Pally
DEFENDERS: Dpond, Hunter-TomisamiRW, CanCritterRW, Bullway

Steam strikes again. Tac and Pally were dropped from the game while dpond did nothing, eventually quitting when he had lost enough units. Remaining guys camped at the back, but got lippy and accusing me of camping. When the game ended in a draw, began swearing at me/each other. Again, very classy.

8.
DATE: June 22, 2010
MAP: Retranchment
ATTACKERS: mxbraxt and Isaac_Brock
DEFENDERS: Jellmanjello and acizcoolman

Mbraxt quit just a few minutes into the game leaving me to attack a fortified position by myself.

9.
DATE: June 26
MAP: Dresden unranked
ATTACKERS: Von Croy, Isaac_Brock, Pally, Jokerguy
DEFENDERS: Goldy, KillCassel4186, WarriorBobo, shawn lazroe

Shawn lazroe left the game less than five minutes in while WarriorBobo until his artillery and cavalry were gone before abandoning the game. KillCassel eventually quit, too, leaving ¾ of his force on the field (although his artillery was still alive). Goldy was the only one on the rabel side to stay… proof positive that [N] clan members have honour while rabel for the most part have none.


10.
DATE: June 29, 2010
MAP:Borodino ranked
ATTACKERS: Isaac_Brock, Clinch, Deputy Dawg (aka Steiner)
DEFENDERS: Jdong, werewolf7t, KO|RFG{FM} Sir William

Sir William almost quit when Steiner took out four of his lights, but was talked into staying by Jdong. Both Jdong and Sir William seemed to be AFK for much of the match. Well into the battle, Jdong yanked his internet and the game ended.

11.
DATE: June 29, 2010
MAP: Dresden unranked
ATTACKERS: werewolf7t, [9STAR] FieldMarshal JAG, XchavsX
DEFENDERS: Isaac_Brock, Deputy Dawg (aka Steiner) CaptainTBone

XchavsX quit the game when he began losing, as did werewolf7t. Kudos to Field Marshal JAG who not only fought a good battle but stayed until the end.

12.
DATE: June 30, 2010
MAP: Dresden, unranked
ATTACKERS: CanCritterRW, Hannibalic, mejonz12
DEFENDERS: CaptTBone, Clinch, Isaac-Brock

Hannibalic left when he was already dead, but other two stayed until the end of the match. Kudos.

13.
DATE: June 30, 2010
MAP: Salamanca, unranked
ATTACKERS:smittybro, shotgun_105, CONQUEROR (MAR), dignitas.dogbert
DEFENDERS: Pints, Fullin, Jakob, Isaac_Brock

All four attackers quit before the end of the match after they began losing, leaving us to fight AI.

14.
DATE: July 1, 2010
MAP: Ligny, unranked
ATTACKERS: mag28, german, Isaac_Brock, [RCG]LGP,
DEFENDERS: [DRAGON]De-Corte, [DRAGON]De-LaSalle, De-Lepic, [DRAGON] De-Oudinot

Mag28 cheated (or didn’t hear/listen) to the rules and brought rockets and unicorns when he wasn’t supposed to. When attacked, he was clearly AFK and then quit soon after. German followed suit and quit a few minutes later, leaving [RCG] LGP -- a worthy ally and, when recruitment reopens, a potential clan member? -- to fight out the rest of the battle.

15.
DATE: July 1, 2010
MAP: Waterloo
ATTACKERS: poru4ik rezhevsky, DUST, Isaac_Brock
DEFENDERS: John Wu, }Arcani{_pepper87|Cplll, }Arcani{_Aquila15

Poru4ik rezhevsky and DUST both quit early on in the match when they lost some light infantry.
