Meh, I may be smart, but in stress situations it tends to go on autopilot. And seriously, Angleans are in no way stupid. They have more old tech than the other factions, and are the only ones with automatons. The attitude is merciless in combat, as in the frozen wastes, mercy is something they cannot afford. I just enjoy being the "commando", the baddass/comedic relief. But we couldn't just keep to those two. There's four other factions, but baronies and Anglea seem to be two of the most popular. I'd personally would prefer being some sort of grizzled old gunner, having to deal with a noob crew. And I've been in that situation, many, many, times.
