Does mybrute have a FAQ that explains the rules for promotions, clans, etc? I've never managed to find one.
Promotions are based on both wins, and how often you directly order your Brute to fight. Abilities seem to be handed out at random, but based on how high of a level your Brute reaches. (Same for weapons).
Dogs and bears seem to be handed out at random too, when you create a Brute. Not sure if you're rewarded with one in later levels, but I doubt it.
I saw info. on the site that talks about creating a clan, but can't recall how I found that page. I just know that it does exist.
If you start a clan first, that's fine. But pick a name related to CPF or flashlights in general. Maybe we could all decide on a name?
Here's a couple of ideas:
Lumarays
Surenix (Combination of Surefire & Fenix).
