The structure and hierarchy of the Bushido clan

The Bushido clan is a brotherhood of the TotalWar community. Its filled up with a couple of TW Veterans, that know each other since ages and its getting complements by fresh and skilled players constantly.
The Bushido clan has no political intenions or something, its just about playing TW games. Its mainly running in a democratic system, but there is also a High Council that has a special supervision on how the clan is doing and which road it will take at what moment. Technically this means, that the clan-members will decide the things together, but the High Council has the power of veto. The high Council will use this power when it sees the roots of the clan in danger or when the "common" members doesnt have a clear majority about an important question.
Both, the "common" members and the high council have their own areas on this forums called "Shiro (Castle of Bushido Members)" and "Edo-jō (High Council)". At this places everything can be discussed.
The clan is working with a rank system, which is based on activity and teamplay. Members start with the low rank "Kohosha" and then make their way to the top.
