Hello TAW family, As you are all aware Vanguard is a critical area in TAW that is here to help grow our community with new titles, new divisions, and new members to fill it's ranks. We do this so we can continue to have multiple choices of games to play, with like minded people. I know for me I have met many people along the way and made many friendships, and I encourage all of you to do the same. With this being said, Vanguard is current looking for a new member to join our team to help teach, guide and support these new games that are coming into TAW.
We are seeking a passionate EU and NA team member who will assist in developing the necessary skills for successful gameplay in Army. This person should possess a strong interest in teaching and support and be able to provide assistance as needed to nurture team growth. Equivalent time zones are desirable to ensure availability.
We're seeking individuals who fit the description to be a part of our community in 2023. If you or someone you know would be a great fit, we encourage you to reach out. Let's work together to grow our community and make a positive impact. We look forward to a great 2023 and helping to grow this community we are all a part of.

Hey everyone,
We are excited to share here and I know some of you have been waiting patiently for this announcement to let you all know BattleBit is coming to TAW. We are excited to announce we have opened a Tier 4 unit in Vanguard and are hoping to bring in some new TAW members and hopefully some old ones to return.
BattleBit Remastered is a low-poly, massive multiplayer FPS, supporting 254 players per server. Battle on a near-fully destructible map with various vehicles!

As this is a Vanguard title we will be looking to build up a team here and encourage any of you that are already playing it to join in their fun and help to support them and grow this team. If you are interested in joining this title and being part of the spin up and do not hold a position and or have a replacement for your position in TAW please get with your CoC to inquire about a transfer. Remember transfers are subject to VG approval just to ensure we are not infringing on any other division success and are subject to denial.
If you have any questions or need any further information please speak with one of the VG team members and we will be happy to chat with you.
Please contact os directly either on discord ICE#1264 MMG#7254 or email ICEatTAW@gmail.com mmgtaw.net@gmail.com.
Vanguard is not like other Corps within The Art of Warfare (TAW). It is a place where new and potential games are scouted, tested and evaluated to become full divisions in TAW. Some people may consider the games/teams in VG to have their training wheels on. We like to think of VG as a staging area for new divisions to be built from the ground up.

Hello everyone,
I would like to reach out and see if there is any interest out there in helping out one of our titles here in TAW that needs a fresh spin into it. Of course as this post is titled the game in question is Rainbow Six Siege. This title has been around TAW for many years now and has always been a favorite for many of you, however as titles age sometimes they need a new fresh take on them. If you or someone you know plays this game and has some interest in helping us breath some new life into it please reach out to me directly either in email, Discord or in person in TS. If this individual or individuals are found we will accept this game into Vanguard and work to build the team into what was once a thriving division.
I look forward to hearing from you.

The Pioneer Division in Vanguard is hard at work, and already had their first game go to Horizon, that is Heroes of the Storm! Pioneer Division utilized limited interest games to develop fully sustainable units to bring into TAW and expand our player base and game coverage. This Division is being led by Stiigletz (Division Commander), and Warlohn (Division Officer). If you have an interest in bringing a game into TAW, even if you believe it has limited interest amongst the members of TAW, please get in contact with the Pioneer TFOs and bring the idea of the game up.
Pioneer's Progress Currently:
