Quick Facts:

• We are a multi-game guild/gaming community. If you play games like Team Fortress 2, Guild Wars 2, and League of Legends, etc. you will love this guild.
• We are a roleplaying guild in applicable games. This isn't really the case for PlanetSide 2, but we'll certainly have "faction pride".
• We're competitive players that love to win but still have fun when we don't.
• We're casual friendly: While certain goals may require more time from some than others, we wouldn't dare remove anyone for not playing X amount per week.
• We're always on Mumble chatting- whether we're playing together or not.

Update Log:

• 10/2/12 - Site and banner updated to reflect our anticipation for PlanetSide 2.

Watchmen in Other Games

In other games, The Watchmen are an organization of adventurers, mercenaries, traders, assassins, and anything you can think of, really. We're looking to get by comfortably in the world and can be trusted to get the job done when push comes to shove. Sounds pretty open? It is, because we want to make sure every RP style is able to thrive within our guild.

Watchmen in PlanetSide 2

The aforementioned roleplay isn't really applicable. Instead, we'll be mostly focused on the competitive side of our gaming community. The above is there as an example of some of the things we come up with for other games.

In the spirit of things, officers have been given the option to name their own squad. This promotes a sense of camaraderie and pride. Officers will form up platoons with one another. Leadership will coordinate in platoon chat while the squad level will be reserved for more immediate action. One or two officers will be designated to coordinate with other commanders in the command chat to relay our plans and accommodate actions in progress.

We welcome pick up players to our outfit squads permitting they are willing to cooperate and use voice chat. This benefits us in two ways: We can fill platoons quickly and stir up interest in the outfit.

Sometimes, we get our asses kicked- it happens. Worst case scenario we retreat to a larger base and rethink our strategy. We take this opportunity to build a wing of aircraft or a fleet of armor in order to hit the opposition back twice as hard. Losing is part of the game and we encourage sportsmanship. That goes for winning, too.

Community

We use Mumble and have a mature, fun player base. No matter what we're doing, we're usually chatting it up. We have a few basic/common sense maturity rules, but nothing unusual. More on that if you check out the website below.

We cater to casual players that may not be too interested in active competition all the way up to more serious players that may want to invest more time in their play. If we enjoy you, we want you around- we're not concerned with how active you are. If there's a time intensive game goal we're trying to accomplish we'll do it as a guild/clan/outfit/community somehow.

Leadership

The leadership is mainly comprised of a group of close friends that go beyond the game. This insures the guild's long term stability as not just a PlanetSide 2 outfit, but a gaming community. We've been known to play Battlefield 3, Guild Wars 2, League of Legends, Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress 2, and many other games.

While we have members that may only be interested in one particular game, potential members should consider branching out in order to get the full Watchmen experience! In addition to Mumble, we interact a lot through Valve's Steam client.

Competitive Play

Some of our members have experience in competitive e-sports and PvE leading experience in games like World of Warcraft, The Old Republic, and even Call of Duty. This is our first shot at serious PlanetSide play, but the attitude encouraged for successful, winning play transcends most competitive online games.

Schedule

We host major events about 2-3 times a week, during weekdays, in the evenings. Often there would be additional events on the weekend. However, many of us work, are in college, or have a substantial social life so we keep it relaxed, fun, and burnout free.

In PlanetSide 2, you can make progress with a small squad, but we aim to have platoons running regularly- sometimes welcoming pick up members to join us as long as they're willing to cooperate. This will enhance recruitment as well as the size of our offensive/defensive action.

In order to cater to our international players we plan on hosting events early in the day on Saturday/Sunday.

Conclusion

If you're interested, contact us through the website below. We're also in-game as Watchmen and my character name is Ghostlight. I am often running a squad advertised as "Ghost Squad - Watchmen". You may PM me here, too.

If this is the best guild you've ever seen, you're more than welcome to jump right into the app process on the site. It only takes a few minutes and helps us weed out serious inquiries from passing interest ones.

Thank you for your interest.
