Spawn Clan

Spawn Clan was one of the first and most successful Norwegian Quake clans, with top players like Sectopod and Jargoon among its members.

History

Spawn Clan was founded in October 1996. They quickly established themselves as one of the top Norwegian clans, second only to Carnage Clan. Its first official clan match was a victory against Swedish Chefs. Spawn Clan had an active first year, but the activity declined when several of the clan's most active members, who were also their best players, decided to merge with Carnage Clan and form the new clan Game Over in late 1997. More on the founding of Spawn Clan can be found here.

Spawn Clan arranged what was probably the first Quake-LAN-party in Norway in January 1997 in Oslo. A report from the LAN can be found here. Founder Sandman was also heavily involved in setting up the first AskerLAN together with BM, founder of The Vicious Vikings.

Achievements

In its first and most active year, Spawn Clan had comfortable victories against top clans like Swedish Chefs, Crusaders and Euthanasia. From its start in October 1996 and until November 1997, when the clan's most active members merged with other top players and the activity went down, Spawn Clan played 39 clan matches and only lost three of them. All three losses were to the Norwegian clan Carnage Clan, which had Stalin, undoubtedly the best Quake player in Norway at that time (though Sectopod would soon take that title).
