King Hammer (Winter 2010-2011)
Under King Hammer's reign the clan obtained its first clan war win against OSA. This was much needed, as all the members were feeling a serious drop in morale after suffering some serious losses against other more powerful clans we had recklessly challenged.
King Hammer also saw the founding of Squad Wars, a further internal tournament to establish a royal bodyguard. And at this stage the clan began to set up squadrons to deploy in our external wars. Tokle and Crown launched a system of points and ranks for the different squadrons, which continues to this day.
King Ckyrias "the bloody" (Spring 2011)
Our second King came to throne after an impressive show of strength in Cyprus. It was the greek Ckyrias, who quickly established his bloody reign. It began with a series of 1 vs 1 challenges against Ragian who had lost in the final of the King of the Crusaders tournament. Ckyrias ruthlessly cut his fellow crusader down time and again. He then began a series of "decapitations" and set up his own ranking system of decapitating any crusader that got in his way. Dazza continued to taunt the King, taking on the mantle of rebellious crusader, and rose in decapitation status.
Under King Ckyrias the Clan began to show improvement. We won against 1RFG and Igni Ferroque.
During this time the clan underwent some purging of its members, with inactive members being asked to leave. The result was that the remaining group began to become tighter-knit.
Squad wars continued slowly, and the Crown organised an internal mini clan war to improve our team playing. Blackknight's videos also continued, and BGtheBrain opened a Lounge for idle chitchat. Dazza was promoted to clan leader of social activities and began yet another internal clan tournament called Crusader Jousting (a 1 vs 1 tournament).
The clan was in for a shock though, when they were challenged by LotZ. One of the players in LotZ was basicman2010, a former Crusader who had been let go (after losing 21 games in a row against the Crown on Feudal War). Basicman became the object of much fear, with his very low rank, uncanny luck and horrible spelling. It was at this time that clan members decided to use the word basicman in lieu of swearing.
