I really don't think it's much to insinuate that 250,000 (at most) immortal mercenaries up and declared themselves warlords when they each have single-handedly both killed and died the equivalent of some countrys' entire armies.

Warlords in the traditional sense? Probably not. But warlords none the less.

EDIT: And there's nothing wrong with that, at all. Because while we started out as 'just another grubby soldier fighting in wars bigger than we' originally, we're -100% OFFICIALLY- clone troopers. Mercenaries are a profession, not all of us are mercenaries. We are, on the other hand, god-like warriors or soldiers who are merciless in effect in the only thing we know how to do: War.

war-+lord
-êw+¦r-îl+¦rd/Submit
noun
a military commander, especially an aggressive regional commander with individual autonomy.

While we do not command armies of individuals, we do command personal armies of our own clones.

If so we are potentially a treat for the faction, but we are also useful for them, something like: you can do the cleaning in hour houses, but you can't live next to us, shouldn't we all be moved to outer space regions?

But still i don't understand how a new player can be a warlord, i know i'm not the only one who think this is weird. Maybe is just the word itself, but this whole new concept, both role wise and lore wise it's weird for me. It's pointless because when everyone is a warlord no one is. The best thing about the old concept of Dust was that you used to be "just another grubby soldier" fighting in wars bigger than you.

I would like to hold a city. That's all I want. District is too much work. I don't even want that. I just want money, and true Intaki succession. Kitten the Federation. Sometimes I forget that I am Intaki, and have no loyalty to the Federation or the State; exploiting both.
