Both IMP and Homer grew quickly, almost as quickly as the rivalry and hatred between the 2 clans. Homer based its membership upon recruiting every person to join FFA, whereas IMP was more selective in it’s recruiting. It’s unclear how the first IMP/Homer war began, but one thing was made abundantly clear, Homer was no match for IMP. Rico recorded 3 separate occasions when Homer had requested a ceasefire during the war, IMP refused, we were not satisfied that Homer truly understood that trash-talking IMP was a clan’s death wish. During this first war, Rico was president, and there were 2 other head-advisor type members, Fancy ketchup, and Evil.

Xmach joined IMP at about the start of the first war as well. Evil took Xmach under his wing and showed Xmach the art of killing and running multis. Soon after Xmach had learned the ways, Evil lost internet access, and only stopped back at the IMP site occasionally, never to of run countries with IMP or in FFA to this day. At the end of the 1st IMP/homer war, IMP had grown, and Homer’s # of members and avg net worth had plummeted. With the absence of Evil, there was an opening in the leading positions, and Xmach quickly rose to become one of the war leaders.

When the 2nd reset came, Rico and Xmach were the only 2 top leaders still active, for Fancy ketchup also had gone inactive due to ISP problems. With Rico’s permission Xmach began the 2nd IMP/Homer war, out of boredom for the most part. The hatred between IMP and Homer grew more, Homer again grew by recruiting everyone that joined FFA, and Xmach ran about 20-40 multis through the reset, and antagonized and irritated the Homer members, specifically UJ, KO, Svein, Potomac, Yeah Dude, and RoadKill who became the leader of Homer after the first war when Turbo decided to retire.

This 2nd war’s outcome is up for debate, it’s said by both sides that they achieved victory, but it was quite clear that these 2 super-clans would be rivals for resets to come.

The coalition was formed in the 3rd reset, as a result of USIMP, which was formed as a sub-clan of IMP by Stancats, and co-lead by MAMBO. The 3 super clans at the time decided to make TC for mutual protection from the rise in negative feelings toward the 3 clans, this was also the time when Xmach became the co-leader of sorts. Soon after it’s creation other top clans were incorporated into TC, TLV being one of them.

TC quickly became the dominating alliance, proven in the 4th reset when the TC went up against another alliance of clans and quickly showed there was no match for TC. A reset or 2 after Rico decided to retire from FFA, and handed the leadership of IMP over to Xmach.

IMP went through a series of trials after this, the first being the loss of Rico, and then soon to follow other leaders that formed clans like RA and MAD, which later became a large part of the MPE clan now a part of TC. Xmach also had trouble finding time for the internet and especially gaming at this time, Sprad who was the trusted Head advisor also left to help form MAD, leaving very little active leadership at IMP for the following 2 months.

IMP membership declined, and top members deserted the clan left and right, IMP was no longer on any of the top clans list. At this point any other clan and leader would have called it quits, but not Xmach and IMP.

Xmach after finally finding more time for gaming and IMP specifically, decided that in order to save IMP there had to be a way to keep the remaining members together, and provide some attention and advertisement for IMP, so Xmach against his better judgment decided that a merge into MPE was the only move.

Shortly after the merger, Xmach realized the mistake he made, but also was contacted by ex-Homer members UJ and KO, who both had internal dispute with the new leadership at Homer (Fiat and Svein), and wanted to join IMP, IMP being one of the few remaining original super clans that shared the same views as they do. With the addition of these 2 and their countries, and the belief he could reform IMP and make it great again, Xmach split off from MPE within a week, and reformed IMP, reform might not be appropriate since the tag never died really, more like rejuvenated IMP.

With the addition of new leaders, a spark of hope, and the new tag IMP4ever, IMP has begun its long road back to dominating FFA.
