Clan Merger - EMPIRE & Agents of Chaos - yes, seriously.

After years of clashing against each other, two of the oldest active clans have decided to merge and form a combined superpower. The Ultimate Agents of the Empire of Supreme Chaos (Final name TBD) is the result of Agents of Chaos and Empire joining as one with the purpose of conquering all before them.

Both clans have a proud history which will continue to be honored as we move forward.

Empire, which was formed in April 2008, is back-to-back champions in the 1v1 Clan Challenge, Conquerors Cup semi-finalists, Clan League semi-finalists, previously ranked No. 1 in the F400 thanks to being the first clan to beat ToFU in a challenge and are 17-5 in finished clan challenges.

Agents of Chaos, which was formed Dec. 18, 2008, has reached the finals in the last two Clan Leagues, advanced to the semifinals of CC3, and the quarter finals of CC2. They also were the first clan to topple Knights of the Round Table in a clan event, are 12-6-1 in finished clan challenges, and are currently ranked #3 on the F400.

Both clans will take approximately the same number of players into this and we see it as beyond a merger of equals. Neither clan is taking over the other and nor is this a new clan. 2 Leaders from each clan will be nominated but all the current leaders will continue to play an active role in the running of the clan.

We look forward to challenging many of you in the year ahead as we begin our quest to reach the top.

Sincerely,
EMPIRE & AOC clan leaders

Whoa, big news! Although for F400 purposes I'm not sure how it could be treated anything other than a new clan.

Really interesting / exciting though!!

Also interested to know when this is supposed to take place, and what you/they plan on doing in regards to CL5 committments in two different qualification groups.

Jetsetwilly: There is only one man that makes my jets rumble. You might guess who that is. <3
Hyposquasher: At first you intimidate me. But then again, you are like a big brother. When I was but a wee lad, you held my hand and guided me.
bobzimmerman: One day you were lost in the cold antarctic winds. So I took you in, but it got colder and colder til we knew not what to do. You remembered something you taught your students in school. Bodywarmth is everything, so we grabbed JJ (no jj3044 not you. There is another jj who was stranded among us) and cuddled until we all made it out.
kjg21 and IanG7: Never before have I met men with such steely talents. Your prowess is beyond compare.

In short. I love you AOC.

You f*cking a$$hole, you sold us out, god dangit, john! I thought you believed in the dream that was Empire! Instead you go destroying everything we have worked for. And to merge with a clan as sh1tty as AoC, this is a god dam* joke!

Of all the clans to merge with, Empire. Not happy. I tried to push jetsetwilly and hyposquasher to reconsider.

This is a warning to all the clans out there, don't have three leaders - they will outvote you 2-1 on what to do.

Osa is planning to merge with Kort and TSM and Pack

we will be called Caws One Step Ahead of the Pack Monkeis , COSAPM in short

Although angola has tried to stand in the way this merger will complete as advertised. Empire represents every ideal one could hope to aspire to on CC. We faced them most recently in the CC3 quarterfinals and realized that this is a clan of true people who mean to do well in the world and aspire to the same ideals that we hold near and dear to ourselves in AOC. There is no group of people on the site that would make a better match for us.

I don't care if we have to force people like angola and the other naysayers into line, this has become a REALITY.

AOC + EMP = LOOK OUT.

I'm afraid I won't be around for that, as I'm reforming The Regulators. We will take up the battle for the #1 clan on CC.

Empire boys and girls (swimmer) , from the bottom of my heart, this is the single greatest day of my life. We live and breathe each other already, what could be better than this, it's a marriage made in heaven. I think we should actually ask Bruce to conduct some sort of ceremony?

To accommodate this change I've removed both clans from F400
