Hints, Tips, Strategy and FAQs for playing Populous III online |

UPDATE
As of 2011 most of these sites are dead. You can check out the remaining clans (plus new ones) on the Populous Reincarnated Clan page.
A lot of people enjoy being part of an online clan, and it can add to the gaming experience by providing a group of like-minded people to hang out with, who will often be prepared to help with strategy tips and teaching sessions. Each clan has its own character, and most will want to test your playing skills before letting you in. Clan members often put the initials of their clan at the end of their names (eg. KillerSheep_TA) but this can easily be forged, so is not an infallible guide to who's in what. There is often a lot of 'needle' between clans, which can be exorcised through tournament matches, but it can sometimes get a little overheated.
If you are running a clan, send me the contact details and a description and I will post it here. The clans are in alphabetical order so I'm just waiting for someone to start the 'A-Team' to get first place.
Like enthusiast sites, the clan sites seem to come and go with great rapidity, and sometimes they reappear. I will leave the old links here though, in brackets, just for nostalgia.
- (AllCool (AC)) - Dead as at 27 June 2004.
- (Band of Shamen (BOS)) - Dead as at 10 January 2004.
- (DeathShamens (DS)) - Dead as at 11 February 2003.
- (Grim Reapers (GR)) - Dead at 14 July 2002.
- Mystic Knights (MK) - This write up received from Supertribe:
A fairly new clan (June 2004) run by Supertribe. A purely competitive clan, only the best may enter. MK has a max. limit of members... only 12 players may enter MK and those 11 players (Supertribe is the 12th) will be selected by Supertribe himself. If u can prove yourself to him, he'll give you a 'code' to enter MK. MK is fairly small at the moment, but soon MK will be one of the best clans around. (which isn't that difficult since there are only 3 or 4 other clans ;)).
- (Newbie Killers (NK)) - Dead as at 14 December 2001.
- Populous: Resurrections (PR) - (Previously known as Lords of the Undead.) This write up received from Keith52:
Although we may not have the best players on the net, we sure do have lots of tips and hints for the "new kid on the block" We hope to have lots of members in the future, and to top it off, we have over maybe 1350+ posts in a little less than a month owning the site. Terrorist and I always update the site every day so it gives our members a chance to post more and more things. We have turned into a clan just very recently and we did try and challenge another clan, but they never showed up. Our clan will remain dormant (in hibernation) in challenging other clans for a while until we finish giving training sessions to all our members. We hope that every member logs in twice a day and posts regulary. We have many topics and we even have a messageboard where you post what member of the community you want a match with and if you put the date time and place, Terrorist and I make it happen.
- Team Adept (TA) - This is probably the largest Populous orientated 'clan', with over 100 members. Other games catered for include Diablo, Unreal Tournament, Earth 2020 and Tetrinet as well as Populous and Undiscovered Worlds. TA has decided to throw open it's doors to members of other clans, so is more of a community of like-minded people rather than a clan as such. If you feel comfortable with the ideas in my 'Etiquette' section, you'll like TA. TA is basically about having fun with like-minded players. There's no strategy info on the public area of the site, but the members area contains a lot of good stuff and existing members are extremely supportive and helpful once you're in, so it's a good way to improve your game. (Declaration of interest - I'm a TA director.)
- (Team Dragons (TD)) - Dead at 14 July 2002.
- (Team Havoc (TH)) - No longer active (14 December 2001).
- (Team Mayhem (TM)) - Dead as at 6 January 2002.
- Team Nashua (TN)
- Team Nashua is an active and growing Populous clan.
TN is approaching its three-year birthday, and I
believe TN is now one of the largest (if not largest)
and probably most active Populous clans on the web. TN
players are constantly in the lobby, and frequent the
message boards on the TN website, which have over
13000 posts in ten different posting areas. TN is a
light, friendly, environment, where people from all
kinds of different countries and backgrounds meet to
hang out and play Populous. We are actively engaged in
working out the details for another clan match and
developing a new front page for our website. We will
accept anyone who applies, as long as they are
friendly and will enjoy their time in TN. Thank you.
- challengme3 (c3{tN}), Administrator of Team Nashua
- The Dark Masters (TDM) - The Dark Masters is a Populous clan under the leadership of Supertribe and Walhallah. We don't accept people who are in other clans. This clan is only for Populous players; we don't play other games. We're competitive and we will try to beat every other Populous clan.
- The Youthful and Demented (TYD) - Dead as at 10 January 2004.
