A Factory? Disaster! TheSnake
Episode one of a series of interesting happenings over MrHansamann's Legion and their crew spot. What happened and why? Look no further, it's all here. Our story starts with something that many people will have experience of... a bullet factory. Having said that, you could say it involved two bullet factories: Colorado and New York. The argument was between The Deadly Alliance and MrHansamann's Legion.

The Deadly Alliance, undoubtedly the longest running crew consistently on the Crews list, has had a history of relatively few fights. They pride themselves on peace and quiet negotiation, but as they showed earlier this week they aren't scared to take action should the occasion arise. In total, 46 players from MrHansamann's Legion were shot by 6 players from The Deadly Alliance. It was all over within half an hour of the first shots being fired. MrHansamann's Legion, on the other hand, have been around since the reset and have been making headlines since their creation. Their bosses are well-respected and known, but in their short lifetime they've had their fair share of problems.

Using between 900,000 and 1,000,000 bullets, acquired from a mixture of crew bullets from factories and points, The Deadly Alliance took revenge for what Missfit described as three "mistakes". The first, she said, was when they "tried to kill for the BF". This refers to the killing of Budgie for Colorado Bullet Factory, which TDA believes was effected by MobMaster, co-boss of MHL. The second was to "threaten what is rightfully ours", according to Missfit. And the "third and final mistake" was to "tell me my only other option is to die". This was all said in a topic made by the TDA Crew Boss in the Game Forum the day after the killings.

However, although the shootings were carried out swiftly and with precision, the job was not as clean as hoped. DeLeTe was left alive, as the one account which survived the killings. MrHansamann's Legion therefore survived being fully wiped off of the Statistics page, and others were brought into the crew at this point to stop the attackers from finishing them off three hours later. DeLeTe, instead of returning the crew to MrHansamann, then sold the spot to Dies Irae. The next part of the saga continues in the article, Dies Irae? Where? The Deadly Alliance sent out a strong message to Mr and Mrs Hansa, who as yet have not taken any action. As the past shows, MrHansamann is not one to leave such events unattended, and as such we wait with baited breath to see what may or may not happen next.

So there you have it! That's what happens when two crews lay claim to a Bullet Factory. It was in actual fact New York BF that the quarrel was over, which had been owned by TDA before MrHansamann gained it and kept it. After it found its way back into The Deadly Alliance hands, if we assume that MHL was behind Budgie's death, they realised that a Bullet Factory is a Bullet Factory, regardless of the state it's in. But, as we all know, it is not just a Bullet Factory. It's "a property owned and held by one player which produces metal projectiles used in killing" I leave you with that thought.
