The Spartans are a clan of wasteland warriors.

History

The clan started initially as a hideout for the most hardcore of the Dark Flame (DF) wasteland fighters, 3000 wl points per week minimum and long time DF membership. At its peak the clan had around 10 members all solid wasteland maniacs.

The clan was used by members to plan wasteland tactics, coordinate attacks, DF gossip, trash talk the always absent Black Hand etc.

In the beginning, the clan maintained a strict policy of kicking anyone that did not meet the 3k wl point criteria 3-4 weeks in a row but when more of the members became inactive the clan turned more into a old wl veteran internal admiration club. Especially in the case of yehrite, who had moved to a BH position and scoring below 100 wl points a week for months in a row.

A popular event was the "Spartan hour", it was an agreed set time of day when a majority of the Spartans would join forces in wl and toy with the other gangs.

2011 Exile

Internal struggle that shook Dark Flame at the start of the year 2011 resulted in many DF veterans to be seen as outcasts and traitors. The Spartan clan changed its requirements and its goal toward bringing a better leadership for Dark Flame in the battles to come.

Although new to this type of task, clan's actions and its impact on the wasteland affairs have attracted the attention of other gangs and staff on short notice, with Clan's forums visited by numerous staff members and postings by the game creator as well.

Some 7 months into the Exile, breaking a long silence, Dark Flame's deity Cain declared Spartans as traitors to the gang thus denouncing their goal and their means to achieve them.

2012 Return

It was decided by the Spartans that as of the new year of 2012, the Spartans would return to DF and attempt to fully reintegrate themselves with the rest of the Gang. Even after all the ups and downs, the Clan has decided to stick with DF in the next WL round, continuing to close the bridge that many thought was burnt forever.

As a single fist once more, DF grew in power, and managed to be the first to 0-Square every other Gang.

http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e93/chipmonkey0/domination.png

As of 0245 hrs, 7 July Server Time, Parka, a long standing Spartan, was rewarded the Warlord Rank; another step to full reintegration.

Goals

Long before the exile the Spartans were all part of the core members of DF. The clan holds several ex Black Hand and even more of the Spartans have held DF leadership positions in the old glory days of DF. The Spartans still count themselves as DF and part of the clan requirements is to be willing to return to DF once the goals are met.

The root of DF's problem from the point of view of the Spartans is that the system of selecting new BH members is a lottery, and when the lottery fails DF is left with a council that can be lazy, inactive and corrupt without any means of removing the BH member. While the other gangs all have a system to remove incompetent and unfit council members, DF lacks it. The goal of the clan is not only to remove the BH members that were responsible for the exile but also to find a permanent solution so that bad leadership is removed before it has the chance to damage DF.

Do you have what it takes to be a Spartan?

Wasteland action

WL Round 2 of 2011, Spartans in OC:

The Spartans fought alongside OC in the new Map, the first with Sentries. After 2 months, despite TC being very close to victory, holding all 3 objectives for half of the round, OC wasn't going down without a fight. The Spartans didn't take kindly to anything that isn't first place either. So a Green Fest was devised; a month long campaign to tip the scales, to show their power.

With the Spartans spearheading the campaign, the conquest began. Squares were taken, Buildings were put up, and mercy was thrown out the window.

The end result was not just seeing OC going from the last position to the first, making that month the most points earned by any Gang. OC made a new record; beating DF's 150 Square Count at any given time. They were also the first Gang to 1-Square 2 separate Gangs, nearly bringing all 3 Gangs to their knees. OC did this, but it was the Spartans that ensured that it happened.

WL Round 3 of 2011, Spartans in TC:

The Spartans, getting fed up with the hate campaign being propagated from the BH, decided to put them in their place. Nemesis decided that the Spartans needed to show DF that hate is not the way. TC's council was willing to carry out the plan with the Spartans, whom donated the WL points needed. The result, shown below, is known as the "Leonidas' Smile".

Dev Server

There is supposedly a Spartan Clan on the Development Server as well, though not much is known about it nor has it been possible to find out any more.

Who they are and what affiliations they have with the Spartans on the Main Server, only a handful know and the rest of us to wonder.
