I'm still working on getting enough practice to try MP. I'm happy to be independent but some of the clan activities sound interesting. My question is . . .
Has anyone compiled a list of clans out there and what each is interested in? (apart from fragging the others and staking claim to vast territories and being the lords of all they can see!) I can see the names (but not philosophies) of some clans from the forum member affiliations but are there others?
For those just getting into MP it would be interesting to have an idea of who to ask for membership - it would be churlsih and embarrassing to join a clan and then defect because another clan meshed better with your philosophy! Perhaps it would be interesting for everyone to know who was doing what . . . perhaps there could be a central clan blog!

"Go to the: Clan/Role playing Forum" and it list's all of the Evochron Clans and what they stand for and do.

I hope that's right - can't remember - getting like Yoda!!!
Anyway its the Clan/Role play forum. The clan list is maintained by the clan leader, generally, and I thinks its fair to say that all the clans will welcome new recruits, but as you say their philosophy is what what will tempt you. All clans are intent on having one thing though and thats fun, despite to bragging, boasting, posturing, warmongering, argumentative and general "we are better then you" posts. Its all in good heart. Blimey look at BA and SW! But BA are very fond of old Yoda, and we do help him out sometimes when his minder is away!!!!!
I am Clan SD's Leader. There are many clans and with many different intentions. You can look at the first post of every clan page and it may show the clans goals, objectives and Intentions. Through that you may find a clan suiting to you desires.

I disagree. Clans were a major part of Legends (especially for role-playing) and are essential to any full-blown Mercenary MP. The first few paragraphs of the "Clans" section should explain the concept of clans and then, afterward, the currently active clans could be listed ... starting with the oldest.
I agree with Marvin - Clans seem to be a fundamental part of the MP universe. I've done some basic checking on the clan forum. (cutting and pasting to create a document at the moment.)
There are some clans which offer lots of details, there are some which appear to be basically mates who can fly at the same time. There are some that appear to be a saturday night crowd out for a rumble. There are some clans which aren't sticky at the start of the forum and there are couple that could be just a mickey take, but I don't want to offend anyone - who needs enemies when you are just starting out?!
There doesn't seem to be a clear way to see which clans are still active and which have gently faded into the void. Have I missed something? Do all clans appear on all servers?
I am happy to compile a summary of Clans with name, philosophy (where given) and ranked by size, to save others having to wade through numerous posts on the clan forum. I could post a download link if anyone is interested (and I can work out how!)
Thank you for the welcomes!

This listing of clan philosophies sounds perfect for the Wiki.
