It's been one month since WAR started for a lot of us. Today marks the guild's one month anniversary in-game. We've come a long way. I asked you all to set two goals: get me a keep, and get me sixty members. You got half a dozen keeps. You got me HUNDRED AND FIFTY MEMBERS! Dommies, you rock.
So, where does Domination go from here? We face many challenges. Destruction outnumbers us drastically. Are you going to let them own this server? We may be the underdogs, but by Sigmar, you better keep on fighting! So I have two new goals for Domination this month: first, I want every single member that has a character at level twenty or higher, to be level fourty by the end of the month! It's going to be tough for many, but you won't face it alone. I'm calling all my officers and members who are starting to hit that mark now to reroll new toons, and help those lower levels catch up. Do your part and help your guild rise to the top!
There are a couple really exciting announcements:
Domination is now in an alliance called "EPiC", which consists of the guilds: Blunt Logic, Fallout, House Archon, Immortalis, Overkill, and Aenionan Prophecy and Blood Eagle. The goal of the alliance is to facilitate a means of instant communication between the largest guilds to promote organized forces against destruction. We will be running events all the time, so its important to represent Domination well. When in a vent server, follow orders and be civil. You can communicate in alliance chat with /a, but use it appropiately.
And this is your second goal, to get to know our allies within the alliance. For many people that have been around in the guild a bit, working together and standing beside each other has become second nature. We want to expand that bond, that cohesion within our guild and without.
The guild has created a new rank, the Event Coordinator. This rank is co-leader, between leader and officer. They are in charge of monitoring the other officers and scheduling events. Joel, house mascot is our first Event Coordinator. One of our oldest members, Nick, is the second. Treat these guys better than you'd treat me, and welcome Nick and his group of Dommies to the guild!
The guild now has an official keep that will be our indefinite home: the keep "Karaz Drengin", in Kadrin's valley. Your second goal, is to protect this keep at any cost. Any cost.
The guild has been re-organized to fit our original vision. Now members will be split into two categories: skirmishers and defenders. When just questing, running casual scenario groups, or PQ's nothing will change and you are still just members. However, since the focus of Domination is RvR, and that is our end-game plan, your rank will determine your role. When we run any RvR, all skirmishers will be run by Tyler, or his officers. Their goal is to be outside the keep, taking BO's and flanking attacker's healers and casters, and retreating, guerilla warfare style. The defenders are the keep defenders, who will answer to Erikthered, and his officers. They will be responsible for defending the keep with coordinated ranged abilities and siege weapons. It is very important to understand your overall role and do exactly as ordered when in RvR events. Some classes could fit into either member category, so if you feel you belong in the other please notify a GM.
On a final note, all guild's evolve. Eric and I have discussed our progress and have chartered a new rule-set for members which you will need to read here http://towerhills.webs.com/guildexpectations.htm. You guys are the reason we are one of the no. 1 guild's on the server! We have good moments and bad moments, our fights and friendships, but our mutual dedication to RvR and brotherhood has set us apart from all others. Keep fighting the good fight, and freaking sign up for guild events more often!
