-- clanwars news wire -- In heavy Zero Hour fighting Friday, 104 skirmishes broke out as clans jockeyed for position during the day long, massive onslaught that (at press time) still continued with rumbling and fighting being heard off in the distance as the sun set on the battlefield.


Stepping up and leading the way out on the field was clan -UK| who packed up, headed out and nailed down 19 wins. Warrior Scotland^ staked his claim to fame as the fiercest fighter of the day registering 17 wins in some brutal fighting. Scotland^ had this to say after a triumphant return to camp "If you are out here fighting then you are a man; I saw a lot of men cry today at what we were doing to them and for them I say...go home, where you belong, but if you stay, stay away from us - we're here to win.". It's hard to argue with his bravado after he collected 17 big wins today.

Field intel coming back front the front was reporting clan HFD| was also pushing up laying stake to new ground securing 14 wins vs 5 defeats in some epic fighting.

With 4 days left in the tournament the title is still up for grabs. [F]cracker, boss of clan RUS2 who picked up 1,204 big points today was resting at camp after the fighting and had this to say "It wasn’t pretty out there; it was a battle of attrition. We’ll pack it up and head back tomorrow…the war rages on". He later added: "They just kept coming at us all day; we did everything we could… I left it all out there today"

With the battles raging and clans fighting hard to set themselves up for a run anything can happen. Stay tuned for what appears to be a terrific tournament.

That's life and that's just the way it is and always will be." said an obvioulsy excited Arcane, boss of clan RUS, "When you work hard good things happen and today you saw just that, we deserved the win".

I knew the day to fight was at hand." he was later quoted as saying to a solemn group of -UK| warriors.

They can have the Cup when they pry it from my cold dead hands.".

I survived, that's about all I can say." said England^, boss of -UK|.
