I think he's talking about EMPIRE. I don't see why not.

I'm not to sure, since this is our 3rd challenge of the past 3 months, which is a lot for our clan.

He probably is reffering to Empire taking on another clan outwith the top 25 clans (according to the last power rankings). It's up to you guys at SoW to prove people wrong but right now it looks like a mismatch.

Yes, no offense intended to SoW, but you guys aren't (ranked as a) top 25 clan. EMPIRE challenged a similar clan, The Last Warriors, citing training new members. Now it just looks like cheap wins…

Nope, still want more games with the fresh meat...er... new members to tune up. Literally a third of our members have gone inactive in the past year and so we needed to bring in 6 or so quality players... we want to make sure we are a well-oiled machine!
GL to SoW, looking forward to some good games!

If you say so…you could always play in-clan games or public ones, but bumping your record in the process works too.

There isn't anything like an active challenge to really get the juices flowing...and the members engaged (which is what we want)... you know that.
Anyway I don't think you are giving SoW enough credit... I bet this will be pretty close.

Indeed it will be. Assuming you spot them 10 games.

And now I depart unless I'm baited back in.

Cheap shots all around. Now that the clan ranking system has changed "easy" wins are irrelevant, so beating someone 35-5 for instance (ahem) doesn't increase your RPI points. Kudos to EMPIRE for being willing to take on anyone, there's a lot of the top 10 clans who won't play a clan until they've "proven" themselves to be worthy.
I say Empire 43-17 though.

I wouldn't worry too much about this. If there was a leapfrog ladder in place, EMPIRE would be getting a pat on the back for having the balls to risk such a challenge. Plus who says they wouldn't up facing each other in the CCup or Season 3 etc.? In terms of other clan areas, the CD's and I have plenty of backup plans and ideas.

Oh I diffidently believe this is a miss match and was wondering why they wanted to challenge us right now, but we as a clan are happy to be playing some people who are a bit above our level, we are hoping to make this a good learning experience, and hopefully have some really good games as well.

Good luck Soldiers. I won't be as active here as I normally am (my wife and I just had our first child), but I will certainly root from the sidelines as often as I can.

Good luck to both clans. Does look a bit of a miss-match, though. I'd say the TLW challenge proved that the new Empire recruits have what it takes, not sure what this one is all about.
