Unfortunately to save on bandwidth, we had to delete the entire 2014 Sherwood news, as well 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010. (2013 has been recovered). Some of 2014 has been rewritten below.
BW put pressure on RC - December 30th
RC, being the number 2 clan, have just been crushed by BW. The battle started out fairly even, getting to the point where the score was only 7 - 4 to BW. However, from this point on RC began to feel the pressure and were becoming very sloppy. RC are usually good at communicating via /f to prevent themselves from dying. However, they were under a lot of pressure from 1v1's, especially from Psalms who had a vendetta against them as RC were trashing him and BW the previous weeks. BW quickly gained a number of kills while RC began to give up ending the score with a 30 - 10 victory to BW.
Shocking news - eQ's identity revealed! - December 19th 2014
The mighty BW have done it! They discovered who the eQ members were with the help of an eQ traitor. eQ were indeed found to be harboring the very best fighters on the game such as FiveStarMachine, who was considered the number 1 fighter at the time, Psalms who was the eQ traitor who gave BW a list of all the eQ members, Demented aka Vlad, a strong fighter, and many more. However, the most shocking discovery was one of the members was in fact, Reptile aka Shock the general of BW and the founder of this website. BW were confused by this and thus Reptile had to face the BW council for judgement. Reptile was acquitted of all charges against him due to his long service with BW and for his reason for attacking BW "I brought eQ back to simply provide a challenge for BW as we (BW) were unstoppable and it was becoming increasingly boring killing noob clans". Reptile was allowed to keep his rank but was punished ironically by a punishment system that he supported which forced him to run around the whole castle 19 times (this is a lot more painful than it sounds). Soon after this discovery, eQ went inactive and you could say were destroyed by BW.

eQ break Sherwood record for most kills - December 16th 2014
eQ, eQuilibrium, a clan, made by an unknown identity, has just annihilated AK. AK are not the strongest clan but they aren't the weakest either. AK was founded by Myrtan, a well known clan leader. However, on this day AK were beat 53 - 5 and Myrtan was incredibly gracious about it and earned our respect and eQ's respect.
The previous record was held by BW, who had beaten CTK 38 - 6. eQ are a clan of elite fighters who, as the name eQuilibrium suggests, are all equal. They share accounts so it makes it difficult to tell who is who. However, BW have recently been investigating eQ after it had beat BW 21 - 0 (although BW got its revenge and beat them right back later). BW losing to any clan is unheard of and so BW were out to uncover these masked warriors.

THE EMERGENCE OF KOV'S DOWNFALL - DECEMBER 2014
KOV, which reached a significantly high status on Sherwood around the end of May 2014 and the beginning of June 2014, falling short of BW which was dominant at the time, returned to Sherwood after a period of absence from the game at the end of November 2014. KOV had left Sherwood in August 2014, citing inactivity as the reasons, however a new clan TKO decided to merge with KOV to create a strong force on Sherwood. In early December 2014, KOV established dominance against smaller clans, and started to maintain a few diplomatic relations with BW, such as a training session to begin with on 6 December 2014.
BW training KOV video:
After training KOV and helping them with raids, BW and KOV relations soured, as BW sought to maintain their stand as Sherwood's top clan, as well as to maintain competition. KOV however sought to steal the prestigious #1 spot from BW. These different beliefs resulted in tensions that gradually evolved into a war. At the time BW's only competition was FTF, and FTF's activity had dropped slightly in mid-December 2014. Therefore, on 18 December 2014, BW launched its first offense against KOV, bringing home an undisputed victory of 20-3. KOV would be further humiliated with subsequent raids on 20 & 22 December 2014, with BW attaining several big victories against KOV, with big margins in the scores. See video below.
These relations were further strained due to an incident between a KOV and a BW member on 24 December 2014, which led to BW occupying Room 72 (CTK's base, CTK was brought back on 21 December 2014), and thus causing KOV to enter 72 with CTK to help defend 72, due to an alliance. A fierce fight then broke out, once again with BW dominating the raid with a victory of 30-5. Due to this, KOV was extremely dissatisfied and decided to make up their own raid rules, dubbed as "The Order", and refused to fight clans who did not follow the rule set. As such this drew further flak from the Sherwood Community, ignoring clans on sight and refusing to fight, which even led to CNN Sherwood Network blacklisting KOV on 27 December 2014. KOV's relevance further diminished on Sherwood, causing them to fade away in January 2015.
Fang trains CTK and destroys BA - November 22nd
CTK are now supporters of CNN Sherwood Network and thus have received training from Reptile as well as support from BW. This greatly improved CTK's raiding abilities. BA, in previous months, would easily beat CTK, however, CTK moped the floor with BA this time, beating them 37 - 4! Here is the video:

BW strikes back at CTK - 20th November
CTK had just attacked BW while they were mostly offline in which CTK overwhelmed BW. BW heard that some of its members had been attacked, thus, BW gathered its force for a little payback, destroying CTK 38-6, one of the highest kill counts we have ever seen.

Wam attacks FD - November 15th
Wam, a French clan, founded by a legendary french player known as AmY. AmY has been playing this game within the french community since the beginning. Today, she took her massive horde of French players to attack FD, another ruthless clan. However, Wam were so overwhelming, they forced FD to form a tactical retreat to the ramp and held up a defensive position until Wam went back to base.

CTK "betrayed" by BW against KOG- 2 NOVEMBER 2014
CTK (Chamber of Torture Kings) found themselves in a desolate position when they were caught in a struggle against the combined forces of BW (Black Warriors) and KoG (Kingdom of Glory). Towards the end of October 2014, CTK requested an alliance with BW to defeat the uprising KoG, as the two clans had a history of hatred and dislike for each other. BW accepted the alliance, and the two clans settled to raid KoG on 2 November 2014. On that day, CTK and BW met in a room, lined up, and moved into 212 (KoG's base). Without warning, out of the blue, BW had swapped to supporting KoG colours and started to turn on CTK. CTK, realising they had been bluffed, retreated back to CTK's base in 72. However that did not deter BW and KoG from following them back into 72. This evolved into a full-blown attack on CTK, as they were shattered within minutes from the severe outnumbering, as they struggled to stay alive by backstepping. BW and KoG were consistently racking up the kill score, maintaining it in their favour, with CTK more concerned about staying alive rather than focusing on the kill count, where the kill difference widened gradually. This eventually ended up in a victory for BW and KoG, bringing home a 50-8 victory. This left CTK shattered and demoralised, and would be further wrecked by BW over the course of the next few days with subsequent raids and attacks which primarily ended up in BW's favour. The raids continued for the rest of November 2014, until CTK's closure on 7 December 2014.
Here is a raid CTK vs BW, which resembles how most of the raids ended up:
As you can see, BW were well trained and organised and were a leading example of how to follow the Rules of War.
BA CLAIMS CTK'S BASE, TAKES ROOM 72 - SEPTEMBER 2014
BA stormed Room 72, CTK's base, on a Sunday in September 2014. BA were all prepared, extremely confident and high-spirited to launch an all-out attack on CTK, even changing their description on their website "OUR NEW BASE IS ROOM 72", and openly stating that they will no longer be using their custom base. BA entered 72, and was soon clashing with the forces of CTK, which was being led by Bronte at that period of time. Fierce fights ensued for hours, with neither sides letting up as they consistently claimed runs and wins subsequently. The fighting would stop as soon as members from either side went offline, but when they were online again the next day, they would start up again. Days of uncertainty and claiming false runs followed, neither sides letting up. BA even placed their baseholder in Room 72, stating "Welcome to BA". Bronte, who was a former BA member, had the account name, and henceforth opened up the room, claiming it as CTK's base. The raids were extremely tiring and had no basis, as BA would consistently claim runs they allegedly witnessed and claimed victory against CTK, but CTK stating otherwise, which resulted in endless debates which could not be resolved. The struggles would come to an end when BA's activity started to dwindle and they returned to their original base about a week after.
BW and KOG overwhelm RC and take their base - 19th August
After the alliance with RC and CTK to gang up on BW, BW's closest ally, KOG, were used more often. BW and KOG recently went on a number of raids throughout the last few weeks, beating CTK. Now it was RC's turn. We usually look down upon clans attacking only a few members, as we believe it to be cowardly. However, since RC have been doing it, we feel this raid was appropriate. The final score was 4 - 0 to the alliance before RC gave up their base to BW/KOG.

CTK allies with RC against BW - August 10th
RC are the number 2 clan on Sherwood right now, with CTK being number 3. These two clans have come together to take down the number 1 clan BW. BW have been raiding CTK and RC to death and gaining many victories, especially against CTK. BW were greatly outnumbered as they were caught off guard. However, the combined forces of CTK and RC were unable to get a kill on BW. BW tactically kept a member fighting within a group as much as possible so he could leave and break up pvp locks to save BW members. The whole battle was a massive struggle for BW to survive which they managed to do. Stalement.

CTK and DV mount an impregnable defence against RC - July 30th
RC were out chasing CTK for more victories. However, CTK had a very strong alliance with DW, and were able to mount a strong defence against RC. RC were unable to attack CTK as their was only a few spaces left to enter the room. If RC had attacked, they would have been massively overwhelmed.

KOV attack DW and regret it - July 29th
KOV, are generally a bad clan, known for their lack of skill and running. The only good member KOV has is Chemistry, who is actually a BW member on his old KOV account. The final score was 10 - 3, an easy victory for DW, mostly caused by a lack of communication within KOV. Many of KOV's intial members had already returned back to their base without being told to. Sovereign, who leads KOV, has recently been trying to train his members and so we give him credit for that, as he used to be like TQA, and believe his way was better than what every other clan in Sherwood believes. Our rules are based on what the majority want and so if you want to be a good clan you must follow the rules.
DW search for BA and find them "hiding" - July 29th
DW went to BA's custom base to raid them. However, as soon as BA saw DW coming, they all gathered at an unknown location. DW were calling them out as "cowards" and asking them to come out and fight while looking all over for them. Apollo would tell DW that they were at certain locations which they weren't at. DW were convinced that Apollo was too scared to fight, whereas we speculate that he was trolling them.

Inexperienced REF vs RC - July 26th
REF are a new clan created in June, known as Real Elite Fighters. They are made up of strong pvp fighters and old players from the past, however, in terms of raid skills, they are very inexperienced. Being good at pvp does not always translate over to raiding as is shown here. RC are a well established clan and so the final score was not a surprise. RC ended up winning 7 - 0 before returning back to base. Although it should be made clear that RC had the clear number advantage.

BA raids CTK - July 20th
Around this time CTK had a few untrained recruits, as Fang was heavily recruiting noobs, thus why CTK was so big and active. However, this lead to lots of unintentional running taking place. After July, CTK were trained by CNN Sherwood Network and later became a very good clan and excellent rival against the mighty BW clan.
During this battle CTK were seen running all over the place and were beaten by BA. BA were also known for having a few runners but this raid really made BA look professional lol.
