First of all, I hope this topic will be interesting for you, because i think such system MUST be in Warband. Second, all these rules could be changed by clan leaders polls, its just my view.
Ladder should provide additional interest to clan battles, and ladder allows to see the current strengths of all active clans at the moment.
example
when clans get rating points, their banner will become higher on diagramm. Its only example, it could be done in more beautiful way later.
As you can see on the picture, right now all clans (the actual list of clans-participators) will be posted on 5 april) have default 1400 rating (I used Elo formula method). So, it’s up to you – to prove your clan as the strongest one in Calradia.
At first, ratings won't be accurate enough but after 8-10 clan battles they would. So to make things quicker, there is rule - you HAVE TO play at least 1 clan battle per two weeks, opponents will be randomly chosen and given to you. BUT you aren't limited to play this single match, you are free to play 2-3 clan battles each week if you can find opponents. All these official matches will be counted in your rating.
Clan can’t play 2 matches in a row with the same clan it has to play at least 3 matches with other opponents.
Ladder match should be not less then 8*8 players, match rules - usual NPL rules.
Taking part in ladder system is VERY EASY. You should post results of your matches not only in your clan topics but in this topic as well. I will calculate ratings myself.
I have used this info to make rating system (http://www.playmer.com/ru/articles/rating-calculation.html#elo-k-factor), but you don’t really need to worry about that. Your only concern is to play clan battles and post results in this topic.
Clan leaders, on Monday i will give random opponents for all clans, who will sign their participation in posts below.
Please - its only the beggining, so i cant promise a judge for each match, i hope they will go in friendly way.

so remember the rules:
1) you will be given a random opponent to play a match vs it in two weeks. The deadline day if you cant choose other day - second sunday.
2) minimum 8 players from each clan - if you cant have 8 players during 15 minutes of match time - you should play with the number of players you have, or to get default defeat.
3) you should be friendly and respectful with other clans. Its not a tournament for millions of dollars, so dont be asses
4) you can play not only with your random opponent, but additionally with any clans you like. But you should have 3 matches vs other clans before to play again with same clan.
5) some match rules could be changed if both clans wants so, but if they cant find the compromise, then use only NPL rules.
Please write a form like:
1) clan name [TAG]
2) clan banner (!!! in form like in first post)
3) clan leader, and his substitute(s)
4) clan contacts (steam especially)
5) clan server (location of server)
6) clan slogan (will be slogan of ladder, till this clan is on top of ladder)
7) description of clan, literally or as you like.
Clan can mention additional roleplay ability of their clan - for example they play mathes only with one faction (sarrandids for example), or only with cava, or always -2 players then opponent, or always without helmets or smthng else. If they choose such conditions, and play with it EVERY raiting match, then it will be mentioned in the description of clan, and in ladder table.

Everyone worries that strong clans will make themselves good rating by playing vs weaker clans. Rating system will not let this happen. Of course, first matches vs weak clans will provide some points for strong clan (huh, because its strong clan, right?) but if it will continue trying to play only vs “low raiting” clans then it will earn very small amounts of rating points, for example 0,5 point instead of 20 for honest match. Keep this in mind.
