    Hello all,

     

    I wanted to make an announcement that after a short hiatus for the GFX team. We are back to business as normal.

     

    We have had a few changes to the GFX team. Syndros was in need of some personal time, and has decided to take a break till things clear up for him.

     

    Your current GFX team is MrHeadshot who has accepted the EU CO position (Feel free to kick.....er..congratulate him), Zenmire, and Talisac as GFX DO.

     

    Both Zenmire and MrHeadshot have been in TAW for some time, contributed a lot to our community, and are now willing to help out when it is needed in Graphics. Their help is appreciated greatly, and I am looking forward to all the great art, and graphics they will make for out community going forward.

     

    We are still in need of another person or two for our GFX team. If you, or you know anyone that may have a passion for creating art for our community. Please have them send an email to Talisac@taw.net.

    TAW 1st annual Incrementum

     

     

     

     

    We are starting a first of many TAW Incrementum's to encourage growth, and a little competition within our great community! This is not your normal recruitment drive, we are challenging you, your Division, and your Corps to increase the number of members, and get a little bling during the process as well.


    The TAW Incrementum will take place from October 6 - December 31. At the end of the event:

    • The top 5 Divisions with the highest percentage of growth will receive special tabs for the entire Division.
    • The Corps with the highest percentage of growth will receive a Medal, and special Tab for every member within that Corps.


    General Rules:

    • Every Division may participate in this event (Vanguard teams - see below).
    • Total growth will be based on percentage of your starting member base.
    • At the end of the event, REC’s must have attended at least one Mandatory event will count towards percentage growth.
    • Winning Divisions may nominate a VIP member for a Grand Prize Raffle - honorary CIC for a Day.
    • Inactive members will not count towards your Division/Corps total growth.


    Vanguard Qualifying Rules:

    • Vanguard teams must be tier 2, and have 30 members to qualify.


    Quick tips to help with Division growth:

    • Get those bootcamps completed!
    • Bring ‘em back! Contact former members and get them reinstated.
    • Internal recruiting competition within your own Division.
    • Contact Recruiting Division for additional ideas, refer to their “Teaching Hut” for quick tips


    If your Division is already doing a recruiting drive at the beginning of TAW Incrementum, no worries! The new growth that your Division gains after Oct 6th will still count towards this drive as well.

    Winners will be announced at the annual TAW All Hands Meeting, held at the beginning of 2020.

    If you have any further comments or questions please contact your CC/CLC.

    Insurgency is doing it again.

     

    Hello every one, and welcome. 

     

    It has been a while since we had a post describing what happens in the jewel of the 6th Corps , Insurgency. 

     

    What is happening?

     

    Ever since sandstorm came out, we have been trying to boost our numbers; however, we had -relatively- small  success. 

    So when the word reached us that TAW is having a new massive recruitment drive we had to participate, in order to put our Division back into the game.

    And so on the behest of our DC, we devised a new plan that addresses all aspects of  recruiting, including perhaps the most vital part, integration. 

    Although we have started a week and a half ago, our members have recruited at least 12 members since then. 

     

    I want you all to take a moment to realize how much of an effort it is, because unlike other games, in Insurgency you an only bring people in by playing the game and talking to them via steam after the game, meaning the the person who does it must show an exemplary discipline and patience, and so i want to give a huge shout out to our front line recruiter, Texel. Although she has been here for less than a year she has gone above and beyond her duty, and managed to recruit 5 people so far.  I also have to mention our DC, JOT, who has been a pillar in our Division ever since he came to position. Finally, i have to mention my CO who is doing a tremendous job in trying to maintain the integrity of the EU battalion. 

     

    what are we planing to do?

    Well, we have a lot of activities that we are planing, such as the dreaded 2 v 2,  Bot  survival 2 v armies of bots cup and much more. So you should stay tuned for more posts in due time. 

     

    Finally, our expectation is really high from our members, for we are looking down the barrel of a plan that will get us 5 members in one month. It is hard, but nothing is impossible with the right people behind you.

    New Recruiting Division Interest

    Hello All,

     

    Below is a base outline for a new Recruiting Division for TAW. This will be a new division created within Vanguard to assist in building membership, and finding new ways of reaching outside of our community to get TAW's name out to new gamers. If this new division is a success, we would look at implementing those resources to all of TAW in a effort to help in areas that divisions may want or need some extra help. Nothing will be forced on any team or division within TAW, but an extra resource in recruiting if needed.

     

    We will be looking at staffing roles for this new division. Some duties below we are aware is something a PIA can do, but as we all know not every division and battalion has a PIA, and some that do may not do all of the duties below, or could use some assistance.

     

    If you are interested in being apart of this new Division, and Recruiting is something you love to do, please fill out this form Recruiting Division Interest Form

     

    No doubt there will be hurdles, and duties will be added, removed or changed as we work out what is best moving forward with this division, and for TAW as a community.

     

    Please read below and email Talisac, Bravehardt, Zenmire and Rekon with any questions you may have.

     


     

    -The goal is to help Divisions with recruiting, not to be the permanent recruiting for any Division, but to analyze what could be done to improve results. The main responsibility of recruitment would still fall upon each Division and member within TAW. This team would help on an as needed basis, and for a limited amount of time for any one division.

    • Assess state/status of units current recruiting.
    • Compile a list of Divisions forum posts, and see how active they are in bumping them and keeping them up to date.
    • Proactive in regularly bumping forum posts, and implement a way of doing so to ensure we’re not breaking forum rules. Assist any recruiting request from CC or TFO
    • Have access to Divisions recruitment forum posts or create new ones for Divisions as needed.
    • Arrange/Organize recruitment drives within Divisions, and TAW wide recruitment drives.
    • More than just recruiting (Forums, Developer communication, Community outreach, Facebook groups, Discord groups etc)
    • Encourage use of TAW resources within our Divisions (Facebook, Twitch, YouTube, etc)
    • Find new ways with technology to promote Divisions, and work with SOCOP and PIA's. Discord, Guilded, LFG, etc...
    • Create and disperse training material to Divisions for recruiting. Have them accessible freely for teams to use.
    • Stream games for TAW. Our goal would be to have a couple of dedicated streamers.
    • Creating and maintaining a good outreach with Developers, and official games social media sites. Set up interviews or show Divisions how to make that type of connection with Developers and official media sites.
    • Monitor Lobby and Applicant needs a boot camp channel in TS, and boot camp members if no one from Division is on to do them. Anyone DI or higher should be ready, and able to boot camp an applicant when called upon to do so.
    • Report all duties completed to CC and AC as needed - the level of involvement and any boundaries that may be implemented would be determined in conjunction with the Division, Corps, and the Recruitment team.

    Purple Heart for Madmonk

     

    This is never an award that you want to hand out to any of our members.

     

    Recently Madmonk was in an accident and is currently in recovery getting better.  It is with great sadness that I am giving Madmonk the Order of the Purple Heart.


    Madmonk's Purple Heart Award

     

    Please feel free to comment.

     

    I have worked with Madmonk as my CLC in 4th Corps since August. For those of you who do not know him, he is a great guy with a good personality. He has a hard work ethic, can take a joke and dish one out. His dedication to TAW and 4th Corps was something to be commended on. He was always there to help and give guidance to those who needed it and selflessly spent countless hours on TS helping our members anytime it was needed.

     

    Madmonk will be missed during his time of recovery and our thoughts and prayers go out to him during this time. We hope you are healthy again soon my friend.

    Fornite Battle Royale VG Game of the Week

    Fornite.jpg

    Fornite Battle Royale


    Developer: Epic Games

    Release Date: September 26th, 2017

    Platform: PC, PS4, Xbox, MacOS

    Genre: Survival, Singleplayer, Multiplayer, Free-To-Play


    Check this game out, and  if it is something you would like to see in TAW fill out the INTEREST FORM.


    What is Fornite Battle Royale??

    One day, 98% of Earth's population suddenly disappeared, and the remaining population found the skies covered in dense clouds, creating chaotic storms that dropped husks, humanoid zombie-like creatures, that attacked the living. The survivors found ways to construct "storm shields", a field that cleared the storm clouds from immediately overhead and reduced the attacks from husks, and used these to set up survivor bases across the globe. The player is a commander of one of these bases, charged with going out of the storm shield to find resources, survivors, and other allies to help expand their storm shield and find a way to return Earth to normal.


    Gameplay:

    Fortnite is described as a co-op sandbox survival game and is about exploration, scavenging items, crafting weapons, building fortified structures, and fighting waves of encroaching monsters. In up to teams of four, players must survive and defend one or more control points from waves of zombie-like creatures. Missions have accelerated day-and-night cycles and may cover a period of up to fourteen days. During the day, there are no creatures, allowing players to explore the randomly-generated map, save survivors, collect resources, and use these resources to craft weapons and armor for use in combat or build defenses to protect themselves and the control point. These defenses include walls, floors, staircases, and ceilings to create fort-like structures, and traps that will trigger when creatures pass over them. Players have the option to use different building materials with different strength values, and to customize some structures for specific features, such as adding a door or a window. When night arrives, creatures will spawn in waves and attempt to attack the control point and any structure in its way. Players can use a variety of weapons to fend off the creatures and repair damage to their fort structure. Missions typically have several objectives, some of which require the players to locate special goo balls around the map and bring them to an objective to end the mission or trigger the next part of it. Players may also complete optional objectives within these missions, such as finishing the mission in a limited number of in-game days or with a limited number of defensive structures. If these objectives are met, the players are given additional rewards at the end of the mission.


    Free To Play:

    All players across Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC will be able to download the 100-player PvP mode for free. In Battle Royale, skydive onto an island arena, scavenge for weapons, run from an encroaching electricity field, and fight your way through 99 other players to victory, similar to a round of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.

    Ark Suvival Evolved

    Ark Survival Evolved

     

    Hello Fellow Ark Survivors. With the official release of Ark last month, I wanted to update all of you on what we have been doing. We started out small on Ragnarok 163, and grew to over 25 members.  We had a few disagreements with the other tribes on the server and decided to move a SE server number 52. Some of our members went the CrossArk the center server 9. We are planing on these 2 map with plans to move a group to the island server some time next week.

     

     

    This week we also proud to announce the addition of a TAW private server that is open to all TAW members. The map is Ragnarok and I will list all the mods and rates.

     

    Server Name : TAW RP [Vanilla Rates | Classic Flyers | Structures + | RP Currency | 24/7 | Active Admins]

    Mods : Structures + , k9 stacks, classic flyers, auto torch, Capitalism Currency, temp buildings

    Have a mod you like that is not on this list here is a form to request it. Mod Request Form


    About the Server :

     

    Life is tough these days, but it just got tougher. Taw presents its own Role play server. in this Ragnarok, you can rise to the top using different means. farm, trade, fight, or hunt your way to fortune and glory. become a knight of the kingdom or start your own. with vanilla rates but higher difficulty we hold true to the core that time yields the best. use the market to make some gold or set up your own stall and become a trader. hunting down bounties has never been fun, but the gold and glory does help! check the live bounty board as you hunt the pests. you have a path to choose, what will you do?

     

     

    Sometimes it fun to just chill and catch a few sabertooth salmon.

    VG News Train September Edition

    Vanguard News Train


    Welcome to the September 2017 edition of the VG newsletter.

    With Rocket League being launched recently as the latest new division of TAW, Vanguard now look to identifying the next batch of new games to bring in.

    To widen the scope and being more progressive as a gaming community we are also now seriously looking at bringing in some console teams.

    In tandem with that goal, Talisac has set up communities for both PS4 and Xbox and any TAW member that wants to join them can. Here is a link for more information about the console clubs.  Exciting times but lots of challenges to overcome.


    As always Vanguard thanks everyone for their support and hope the latest newsletter is informative.


    Thank you


    The Vanguard Staff team


    Vanguard Game Testing channel


    The purpose of this channel is to help VG determine how much interested a game has. It also gives us a place to find other members who play the same game. This channel is right below VG HQ, but above Spin up Teams.  

  • Black Squad

  • Dead by Daylight

  • Master X Master


  • FULL SPIN UP TEAMS


    If there is a game you would like to add please to these channels please let the VG staff know.  That way we can support your gaming needs whilst having a better idea what those games actually are.


    If there is a game you want to see in TAW or believe would be a good fit please complete the VG Interest Form. Feel free to contact the Vanguard staff if you have any questions. Although not fully updated, previous games suggested can be found here.


    Blackwake


    • Mandatory event times

      • EU Wednesday and Sunday 19:00 GMT

      • NA Friday XXXM GMT

    • Optional event times

      • EU Saturday 19:00 GMT

      • NA Sunday XXX GMT


    • Not much of an update for you.  The team is stable and doing okay.  Whilst the team is not large it does have a dedicated bunch of players.  

    Recruitment has not been easy and has been hampered of late due to some server issues.

    Should you want to try the game out of just play something different please catch up with TCael for guidance.

    Crossout


    • Mandatory event times

      • NA Saturday 21:00 EST

      • EU Saturday 19:00 GMT

    • Optional event times

      • NA Wednesday 21:00 EST


    • Crossout has made rapid progression since becoming a spin up team.  It was only a horizon for a short period of time before flipping to a full spin. Part of that decision was due to the phenomenal effort with recruitment which has recently see the team top over 100 members.  (Great work guys, appreciate the effort everyone has put in.)

    With the team growing so fast, the joint battalion which had served its purpose has now been broken down into NA and EU battalions respectively.  The NA battalion is looking very good with most positions filled.  The EU is a little further behind the curve but with Knightsabre recently transferring in to serve as the SO we are making steady progress.  

    This hive of activity will continue all through the month as we work towards the target of having this team moved up to tier one and ready to launch by end of September.


    Anyone wanting to try the game out or just want to get some advise please don't hesitate to drop in.  If there is a slot on a team at a mandatory or optional event you would be most welcome to join in.


    RaGe who is SUL for CT or any of his team would be more than happy run a few matches or give guidance as needed.

    A message from From SUL Avguste

    I would like to take this opportunity to thank every TAW member who has helped us get started in Albion.  From interested and involved with AO all the way up to SOCOP and Vanguard Command, those members are countless and our current success is also thanks to their help.

    A special mention to both Odoq (BF 1) and Quebec (ARC 1) who have become an integral part of the Albion Online Division and are contributing daily to our growth and success.

    ARK: Survival Evolved


    • Mandatory event times

      • Still to be set


    • Ark is a new spin up team that is still to have it’s spin up meeting. (although we are looking to schedule it soon)

    With new servers that went live last week and server population that is maxed out across all servers, there has never been a better time for TAW to try and spin up a Ark team.

    There has been a few issues getting our members into the server but it’s getting better.

    Vanguard staff are very hopeful of good things with this team so watch this space.


    Anyone interested in this game, wanting to play or help out should contact IvLeth as SUL for ARK or any of the Vanguard staff.

    Destiny 2


    • Mandatory event times

      • Still to be set


    • There has been alot of interest in this game and as a consequence VG expectations are quite high.

    Currently we are looking to get the initial staff identified and in position so that when the game releases we are in a good place to develop and grow the team.


    In time we are hopeful that we can get a console team up and running for DS2 as well.  Talisac did a good job last time out so will be working closely with the VG staff as we figure out how to make it work.


    Anyone interest in this game should or wanting to help it be a success in TAW should contact the VG staff which we cover for the SUL position.

      • Joint Battalion Sunday and Thursday 02:00 EST / 19:00 GMT

    • Optional event times

      • Joint Battalion Tuday 02:00 EST / 19:00 GMT


    • The RSV team has had a few teething problems including the loss of it’s SUL a little while back.  Despite this setback, the team have not given up and are still trying trying to develop and grow the team with VG TFO covering the SUL role.

    Due to small numbers currently and to manage the team more efficiently the NA and EU were merged into a Joint battalion.


    If anyone is interested in this team or want to help out please contact Balan or Buubbeli who are covering the team between them.
