Warlight is an interesting game before it can be played in so many ways.
Do you prefer strategic games or do you prefer diplomacy/rp games?
What type of gameplay do most clans cater to?

Strategic

I prefer strategic 1 vs 1 because it is simplest. Most type of gameplay is probably tournaments like fbg, bia clans.

Clan league. Seasonnal. :)

Strategic custom scenario team game.

My preference is for "strategic" play (in the sense that I disagree with the way most people seem to run "diplomacy" games - I see them as being exercises in futility a lot of the time), but I don't like the default "strategic" templates or the maps they are typically used on.

I like custom scenarios for FFA or team play, and using settings which produce a variety of strategies and force players to consistently innovate tactics (instead of honing to perfection a very limited set of skills, as in the 1v1 ladder).

RP/diplo are the kind of games where I had the most fun, because you basically have more options and possibilites than basic strategic games such as 1vs1 games. WL allows us to set up and create nice and complex scenarios in an infinite way, and if you play them in a nice map then nice template + nice map = you hit the jackpot.

However I also like to participate in tournaments and interclan games. But I have to admit that basic strategic games have no interest according to me

I prefer Diplomacy,RP games. I'm not very good at Strategic...

Strategic because it requires actual (and measurable) skill.

Diplomacy, because they are easy for a simpleton like me
...Or because I can troll peeps on there...
Fizzer will ban me though so I gotta stop....
But I wont stop...
Diplomacy>Strategic
Fight Now
Plz

haha Knyte thats very interesting considering you used to be apart of the Coalition of Roleplaying Friends

they are both good. but Role Playing is only good when everyone is Role Playing.

I think both are good game styles, and both require different skill sets.

In a diplo, good RP and good diplomacy are needed to be considered a good player

In strategic, a good understanding of warlight's mechanics are necessary to be considered a good player.

Eh, I do enjoy RP more. But then again, a good roleplay needs an interesting setting, games that have actual roleplay as the majority of the chat are games set on fantasy maps and sci-fi maps, whereas real-world maps and hypothetical scenarios aren't really much more of a FFA with special rules and an external modifier - smart usage of deceit.

Strategic custom scenario team game.

I like that

Will invite you to the next one if I remember.

I like a combo of both. I usually play strategic with my main and rp diplos with this account. The strategic aspect fills my need to be a smart stratagist while the rp diplos fill my need for a management aspect.

^ I have an account for each.

invite me.

For those looking for something different i will be hosting game variants. some examples; https://www.warlight.net/wiki/Variants
I try to make it as strategic as i can but the main idea is to play something different and have fun.

interesting link dauti, indeed many variants exist, but sadly few of those games have evern been created...

I play diplos and 1vs1 as well. So basicallyy its possible to like both.
