    Greetings TAW and welcome to another iteration of On the Horizon. The purpose of this particular series of blog posts is to bring light to the current Horizon Teams as well as potential games that Vanguard is considering bringing into the fold.

    Conqueror’s Blade recruitment drive with drawing prizes

    Greetings TAW,


    As we know coming into a new game is one thing, recruiting is another. As a community we learn to work well with each other and put forth efforts in helping each other out. With that said, starting today we are opening a recruitment drive to help ramp up the game. For those that aren’t aware, we are in the process of spinning this game up. As of the date of this posting it is currently Teir 4 in Horizon. We would like to invite you to something fun and exciting to help boost numbers. To make it clear, we are not expecting you to lose time in your personal divisions, nor take time away from gaming on your scheduled events. So with that said, we in Conquerors Blade would like to offer the following for you.


    For every recruit you personally help bring into TAW from the game, you will be entered to win one of the following three items:

    1. ASUS B450 AMD Ryzen 2 Micro ATX Gaming Motherboard AM4 DDR4 HDMI DVI VGA M.2 USB 3.1 Gen2 (Prime B450M-A/CSM)
    2. UtechSmart Venus Gaming Mouse RGB Wired, 16400 DPI High Precision Laser Programmable MMO Computer Gaming mouse
    3. BENGOO G9000 Stereo Gaming Headset for PS4, PC, Xbox One Controller, Noise Cancelling Over Ear Headphones with Mic, LED Light, Bass Surround, Soft Memory Earmuffs for Laptop Mac Nintendo Switch Games 

    Here’s how this breaks down:

    On August 31st, 2019 - for every recruit that passes boot camp and is still active with the rank PFC or higher, you will have an entry into the drawing wth no maximum entries. There will be a drawing for first place, second place, and third place. All winning members will be announced and broadcasted to TAW in the form of a post shared on the home page of TAW.net as well as our recruitment forums online.


    The conditions:

    We need at least 30 recruits through boot camp by the above listed date for the drawing to be worthwhile. 

     

    20 recruits = drawing for the headset only

    25 recruits = drawing for the headset and gaming mouse

    30 recruits = drawing for all three items in the list. 

    31+ recruits I will add extra items to the list that will be well worth your while. ie $25 Amazon gift card(s), Steam card(s) etc

     

    As many in TAW know, I use to do this with other games, and the items were shipped promptly for the winners.

    Again, this is TAW wide for anyone that may play on the side or wanting to check it out. The game itself is free of charge on steam HERE. And who couldn’t use new free gaming items to enhance your play.

    We look forward to seeing how this goes.

     



    Best Regards,


    Draxton

    Vanguard looking for new games

    Hello everyone!

    For those not familiar with what we in Vanguard do, we are the Corps who brings in new games in TAW and build them up before they are ready to launch into Army. 

     

    We are always looking to find additional games for TAW to bring in and build a division for, we can't do this alone though. We need interest for the game and a team to start a division up.

     

     

    How do you go about showing interest for bringing a game into TAW then you might be asking?

    We got you covered, here is the interest form for you to fill out:

    https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeavUd3yeHfBN0CyE5pJ9nkBzU2BL08gaU_P-QHDjZG13zjjA/viewform

    Can't commit to transfer over? No worries, showing interest for the game is still great so we know if there is members interested
    in seeing the game in TAW!

     

     

    If you got any questions or interested to know more about Vanguard do feel free to reach out to anyone of us in the VG staff:
    Dreamus, Hemphop, Warlohn, JohnLockWood
