Post; My Own Army


I guess I wouls have to say that I really don't know how I would prefer my army to be armed. It sort of depends on what the purpose of the army is for. If it is strictly for my personal defense, and defense of my possessions, I would stick with the kind of equipment that would make their job the easiest. If it was a case where the army's purpose was to expand my power and possessions, well that would change things a bit.

My question to you Shadow and Sherman, what is the purpose of your army.
