DarkTemplar Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Vanguard ~~~ Founded: 1st Feb 2017 Founders: Dark, Sketch, Owe166 Classification: Mercenary Seriously Casual Recruitment: Open ~~~ ~~~ What is Vanguard? Vanguard is a private mercenary corporation that holds diversity, community, and teamwork in the highest regard. Unlike simple soldiers or bodyguards who are designed to follow orders, members of Vanguard are recognized and treated as individuals working in teams. No member is simply an asset, each is unique in their desires and aspirations. While Vanguard the corporation accepts contracting requests, whether or not most requests are accepted is determined by the Vanguard teams and their members. Organizational Structure: The ranking system of Vanguard was designed with simplicity in mind. This was part of a conscious effort to eliminate possible confusion regarding power and status within the company. At the highest level, a Platoon Leader and their assistant(s) oversee four different Squads. Each Squad has a squad leader and assistant squad leader overseeing the members. Typically, a vanguard member comes to see their squad members as their family within Dual Universe. Is Vanguard for You? With members spread globally, the Vanguard maintains a constant presence within the universe. As a part of this ubiquitous Vanguard, you will never be truly alone. You will always have a home, and a respectable amount of freedom to pursue your interests while not on an active mission. Individuals who share our ideals, are willing to take on a wide range of assignments, and be a part of a larger family are highly encouraged to apply to Vanguard. Base of Operations: Vanguard plans on operating out of a battle carrier named the Invictus. We aim for her to be a testament to our ability and a beacon of strength for the Vanguard. Apart from the Invictus, another separate, grounded home base will exist for members to carry out their own personal projects in safety and peace. ~~~ Recruitment We are always looking for brave and able men and women to join us! After applying on https://community.dualthegame.com/organization/vanguard-mercenaries, you will be asked a couple of questions asked by a leading member. This is simply an effort to get to know you better, and determine the best placement based on your talents. Want to get to know us first? Join our discord: https://discord.gg/4J5qDqd While there are no requirements to join, but owning a mic is highly recommended due to the prevalence of team-based activity in Vanguard. For all questions please contact Owe166, Sketch, or myself with them via PM, Discord, or by posting in this thread.

Kuritho Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Annnnnd I inadvertently put the thread off-topic. Sorry. But with the Insurgent ship, isn't that sort of ironic considering your a private military corporation? Are you guys a sort-of Rebellion?

DarkTemplar Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 Vanguard is a fragment group of the TU. Left due to issues with the high council. We find the name fitting for us. And while we're similar to a military corporation, we're not quite there. While yes we are mainly militarialy focused, Vanguard accepts any kind of contract as long as the members want to do it.

DarkTemplar Posted July 31, 2017 Author Share Posted July 31, 2017 I am proud to announce that Vanguard has joined BOO (Band of Outlaws). as of the 6th of July (Yes, I know I'm late.) We will remain whole as a mercenary organization within them and plan to stay true to any deal or contracts we’ve made. With this new change we will also be changing what we require of new recruits. Joining BOO opens many doors for us as a group. In return we are helping BOO get their SIG (Special Interests Groups) program up and running by being the first group to participate in it. Being a SIG does not make us a vassal of their group but instead fully integrates us and gives each of our members access to the same programs, resources, and utilities as any other BOO member. We will not accept any contracts targeting BOO members but otherwise we will still take on any other acceptable type of contract. With that said, we hope to pick back up recruitment and welcome many new members into our tight-knit family. With Alpha fast approaching (but not fast enough) people are slowly emerging from hibernation and activity is picking back up. We hope to see as many of you in the DU as possible. See you on the other side o7 ~Dark Vyz Ejstu, Lethys, Sketch and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
