Seeing as there has been a recent decline in military activity, in order to keep the world from going stale, to earn a little extra money, but mostly just to feed our own dark blood lust, the New World Order hereby announces our services as a hired blade, or in layman's terms, pay us and we'll go blow up someone's workshop for you. We do not discriminate on the basis of age, region, race, sex, clan*, or creed, however, all bribes are subject to counter-bribing.
Cost will be determined by the following formula.
(10 x motivation spent) + (2 x chest damage) + rest of damage + (25 x limbs knocked off) + (20 x wall levels reduced ) + (50 x destroyed golem's ECL).
So, say I sent two copper attacks at someone's level one iron golem, and completely destroyed it. At a total of 24 motivation spent, 175 chest damage, 200 other damage, 3 limbs knocked off, 4 wall levels reduced, and an ECL of 7, your total cost would be 1295.
I'd say that's a fair rate, though it is open to debate if anyone thinks there is a better formula. Payment should be made in coins, however in certain cases we may take resources of equal value.
In the event of a counter bribe, refunds will not be made.

My grandfather and his brother were getting close to coming to blows during an argument out in the oil field. One of their coworkers offered up $5 because he "wanted to see brothers fight".
So they tackled the coworker, took his $5, and poured dirt in his mouth.
So see? Accepting money to watch two NWO members fight could be lucrative! |

Oooh. Didn't even think of that.
Sure you don't belong in NWO? That's pretty evil. |

| Was the argument about milkshakes and the drinking thereof? |

| Don't mercenaries like to get paid BEFORE a military action? With your formula, it would be required to pay after the attacks have occured. Also what happens if the employer can't or won't pay up? |

If the customer lacks proper payment after the attacks have been made, arrangements can be made to pay off their debt over time.
As for outright refusal, well I think you can guess what would happen then. |

Ha. That sounds about right, Yami.
Though we won't have any problems (or profit) at the rate we're going. Guess it's too early for anyone to have really formed a grudge against anyone else =(. |

| You could try to encourage some? Give people some pokes, and some prods, and convince them they've been wronged? |
