The Black Company

== The Black Company ==

Of the Company, By the Company, For the Company.

We are a diverse, multi-genre gaming clan formed in 2003. Through the years, we've Challenged the Worlds of AO, SWG, BF2, WoW, EvE, CoD4, CoD5, BF:BC2, BF:2142, AoC, Darkfall, and Aion (just to name a few). We play to have fun; we play to win.

We offer an easy-going, low drama environment for all levels, where members can enjoy the game while advancing with the guild. The best and most capable among us will rise in rank to become a Sworn Brother.

However, we won't take just anyone. We're interested in recruiting quality members, not quantity. To be considered for membership in the Company, players must be motivated, capable, and mature adults (18+). They must be able to follow instructions, be selfless in putting guild success first (Of. By. For.), and require no babysitting or hand-holding. We're looking for strong players who are good sports (gracious in victory and defeat), who play to have fun (no griefers), and are in it for the social experience as much as winning the game.

If you feel that you've got what it takes to become a sworn brother of TBC, then apply now at our forums (http://www.black-company.org). Be warned, however, that sub-standard applications will be outright denied. Let us know about yourself and why you've come to join. Those who make the cut will become brothers and join us in the fight.

ARMA II Specific Information:

We are looking for 3 to 4 players that can be there for training and show up on mission nights (which are basically every friday). Important note: We are NOT looking for "game" members. We are looking for Black Company members. There is a big difference between someone who is going to be left behind in a game that we no longer play, and someone who is going to follow the Company from fight to fight.

We are currently a mainly Co-Op group in ARMA II but we are not shy about PvP on other servers (that's for sure). As a guild, we are mainly a PvP guild but we have so much fun in ARMA II, it's taken a back seat. We tend to be very casual, but operate with a military heirarchy.

We enjoy ARMA II for the diverse elements and the varied environments the game offers. We have a great group of mission designers and are able to modify most any mission we download to suit our playstyle (though we're not against challenging ourselves by scrounging for weapons and such).

We have a training range on Isla Duala with pretty much anything you ever wanted to test, including enemy camps, simulated urban combat, and a 2000m sniper range (though in reality, you'll never take a 2000m shot in a mission).

We also have a list of needed mods and custom uniform skins and billboards that are distributed in the Company only.

What we want from our members in ARMA II is someone who can follow orders, can specialize in a few weapons, but still be able to pick up most anything and use it, and a player who is not afraid to get right in the middle of a firefight and get the job done.

The best part about us is that we have several games going on at the same time. So, if you get bored in one, we have several more you can pick from.

We are currently active in:

Aion

League of Legends (a free RTS)

Arma II

We also have a nice sized presence in APB beta right now too.

On some nights, we have guys playing BF:BC2 but activity (honestly) has fallen off quite a bit this past month. I haven't seen anyone playing.

Of course, we can't stop any of you from suggesting games to play (we're not going to CoD:MW2 at all, ever) but keep in mind that you won't get many of us to go to hugs and kisses online where everyone loves each other and gets along fine. (in other words, we won't be going to the "endless forest mmo")

We're looking for up to 4 new members to fill out some open slots.

Potential recruits should have both ARMA II and OA. We have a mod list of things we like to have available to use and you will be expected to acquire these as soon as possible. We love the ACE mod, but have stopped using it for the time being. We WILL be using it again in the future.

We have some pretty experienced designers and try to make a variety of ways we do our missions. We are also always open to ideas for things to do in the missions we make.

We now have added a server at AOWC. Set filter to [TBC] and it will pop up.
