Greetings,
This is to release some information about the New Land Mercs that most orgs Clan,,Neutral and Omni are not privy to.
Most neutrals think that New Land is a democracy and that the neutral guilds run it. Nothing can be further from the truth. New Land City is a Oligarchy that is runned by the New Land Council. Some neutral and clan orgs stated that Elite Operations has no right or authority to place the Warr in New Land. You are partly correct, however EO did not have the final say to place the mercs
EO was contacted by the legit ruling body of New Land.
The New Land Council had its own reasons for the desire of placing Warr. It was due to the Sentinals, protection of the city and to pressure ALL clan guilds to do something about the Sentinals. The clans claim that the mercs do not do anything. The price of peace is the most valuable reason there is. We will never 100% if the Mercs detour a Sentinal attack. However the facts is this. The New Land Council seemed to think so, New Land is still standing, and this is to protect New Land period.
EO had the same reasons of the New Land council and some others on a org level. In EO the consesus of gathering the monies was 100% Our relationship with the clan though first hand experience was not at all good. Due to lies, deciet and barbarism these acts could not ignored. Orgs such as Opposing Force and Rebels would grief our towers and kill our people and would make statements such as "pick a side" or "this would not happen if you turned clan". These same orgs claimed to fight for freedom vs Omni dictatarship, we at EO finally knew the truth. The only difference between Omni and Clan is that at least Omnis are are more honest. They tell your upfront they want to assimulate you.
Some people will say EO had some bad experence with a few clan guilds. I will state the names of the guilds who used lies, slander, treaty breaking and deception and attacked EO without provaction. Synergy Factor, Lions Den, Black Dawn Syndictate, Leet, Fury, Tempest, Acronium Iron Legion, Choas Order, Axis, Tradze Skills, Opposing Force, Acoloypse, The Mystics, Dust Bunnies ect, ect, ect . We pretty much lost count after 10 or so.
OOC Some people will say it was the clan non rpg orgs that attacked neutral towers. How do you explain the Omni non rpg orgs that did not attack EO and there willingness to enter non aggression treaties? Are the majoirity of Omni just nicer people? What this proved to EO that Clan had the biggest majority of unsportman like people compared to Omnis.
As far as pulling the Mercs out of New Land. I suggest all neutrals and clanners READ the orginally press release that was instucted by the New Land Council via EO. It states "For the Sentinals to be removed" and "Clan/Neutral relations normalize." Nothing less will take out the mercs.
The New Land Council asked EO to not release any information on authorizing the mercs. EO has complied however due to the release of information via news comm that information is declassified. EO would have taken that information to its grave despite some neutral guilds calling for KOS and the like. Since we decided to take full responsiblity and take the bullet so to speak as it would have best serve the New Land Council.
The New Land Council asked EO to help and we complied. Our roots is the Boralis Militia. We had always claimed the right to serve and protect any neutral city in need. With the blessing of the New Land Council we happily and readily complied. The New Land Council has the right to protect itself. EO has the right to serve neutral cities. ANYTHING LESS IS TREASON. EO will fence sit the Clan and Omni war. (Albiet taking some Merc jobs here and there) However we will not fence sit our neutral cities.
EO still has the communication files of hiring talks. When EO declassifies them they will be released for public consumption.
Sincerely, Sumokan of Elite Operations
