Eternal Vigilance

[Tbone]

Got this PM from Font, leader of Eternal Vigilance:

"Hey Tbone,

I don't believe I've formally introduced myself to you yet - I'm the leader of Eternal Vigilance. We have been aware of The Furious Angels since you first entered the community with your 'transmission,' which greatly impressed us. I thought I'd drop you a friendly hello and touch base, since it appears that we are headed towards the same server type and region.

Has your guild made any plans for Phase 2 at this point? If you don't mind me asking, of course; we're currently exploring our options and TFA certainly ranks high on the list of guilds we have a great deal of respect for."

[Keeloth]

If I remember right, people actually thought FA was an offshoot of Eternal Vigilance for a while?

Did a bit of research.  Good-sized guild, 64 members according to the guild summary on SWTOR.com.  It's a multi-game community, judging from their website.  PvP focus, but they mention accepting "all playstyles", so they'll probably have at least a few Rpers involved.  There was an official declaration of war between them and a guild called Jen'jidai.

As far as allies go, they seem like a solid bunch to watch our backs.

I don't know what is our stand on Guild Alliance as we are (in the backstory of the guild) misterious and very few have seen us (since people just go crazy and think they see people with wings).

RP-wise aside... Its very dangerous to go around forming Alliances with random guilds, as i have learned from my past mmorpgs experience. But EV seems to be organized and i really i can't say they are bad in any way. And it is true that as Empire gulds have well over 90+ players... We might need the numbers.

On the other hand... How would this Alliance affect us outside TOR? Will we be granting access to TS? Partial Access to the Forums? Will they do the same?

Note: I don't really like how he called us TFA :S

[Tbone]

Alliance is a strong word. Pre-game "alliances" are just to make sure you end up on the same server. For instance, we want to be on the same server as Revan's Legacy, Eternal Vigilance, and Jen'jidai. We know all of those guilds. That doesn't mean we have to form something with rules or forums or anything like that. It just means we will end up on the same server.

i don't like tfa either.  my first thought was airport security  lol

and isn't Jen'jidai woodgrain's people?

anyway, it doesn't hurt to make friends pre launch, right?  i agree that alliance is a strong word right now.  i mean, we are awesome, so let ppl kiss ass

You forgot to mention the most important part... The leader of Jen'jidai has the FA logo tattooed on the back of his neck!!

[Anamodiel]

I don't see anything wrong with becoming more than acquaintances with them. It would certainly be fun to end up on the same server as them.

Old FA member? Or just a big fan?

Don't take it wrong... i would agree with making more friends... but i dont take just ANYONE as my friend... as the other say Alliance is a big word... especially since i dont know anything abut them... and how it would develop my relationship with them OUTSIDE of the game... which in any rare case could be more than in-game

And about his FA logo behind his neck... i dont know if he was a FA before or w/e but im more than willing to kick his ass... (respect to Jen'Jidai but seriously... i dont play for any other reason than winning in all scenarios.

Nothing is going to be decided until we see how these guilds and players behave in game...

Well, we DO have to decide if we want to be on the same server or not as these guys.  That's the second stage of the guild thing, picking "allies" (i.e. Republic guilds) and "enemies" (i.e. Sith guilds) that will help make sure Bioware puts the guilds you want to play with all on the same server.  So, this is nothing concrete, just a "Hey, let's roll on the same server as these guys."

Hahahahahaha; I forgot about that. Eejit.

[NoCry]

I like these chaps; alliance can mean anything - it could just equate to watching backs. I do not feel we ought to alienate people at this stage and they look well organised. Could help from an RP perspective too.
