NOW RECRUITING!

RCL is a new startup unit catering to skilled but casual players. We will be geared more towards having a fun atmosphere with flexibility to a player's availability. Players new to the game are most welcome to join! At the same time, however, we will also be looking for skilled players that won't fool around. I would like to keep this post uncluttered from as many applications as possible, so applicants are encouraged to personal message me directly. I'm also more likely to respond to PM's quickly.

You can also reach me in-game when I'm online, just send Repasy a friend invite! ^^

Criteria for applicants is as follows:

- you have a mature personality

- you are willing to work as a team

Applicants need not worry about how active they are. I accept both players that are online every day, just weekends, or only once a week. VOIP is not a requirement for this group. RP is encouraged, but not a requirement for this group.

If your active playtime does not fit the criteria listed above, special consideration may be given for groups of applicants. If you and three or more buddies want to join at the same time, feel free to PM me with list of all players that want to join, and your general playtime activity.



/*/ ABOUT US /*/

We are a CLAN SNOW RAVEN unit. Specifically, a contractor of services primarily to the clans (though this can change based on majority group decisions). In CW, we take contracts with a new clan each week, to whoever needs the extra support. If majority of members are satisfied with a contract to a particular clan, this can be extended to a 30 day contract. In light of the absence of Snow Raven holdings in the Inner Sphere, I deemed this would be the most appropriate approach. If you hold a personal allegiance to any one clan, know that this unit's allegiance may shift frequently at times, but your personal input on who we should contract to next is appreciated and encouraged.

Regardless of how committed you are to MWO, we prefer strong coordination over personal glory. Be prepared to take an order or two once in a while, even if you don't personally agree with the action (I can't stress this enough). If you like taking/giving orders and being part of a coordinated effort like I do, this won't be an issue. Posted Image



/*/ RANKED LANCES /*/

If you are more of the commanding type, there will be opportunities to apply for higher commander ranks.

I am implementing a ranked lance system for this unit to support the social aspect. RCL will be divided into individual lances, each with one leading commander and three points. Each lance's commander will be able to make decisions on how casual/competitive/RP their lance will be, and will have a say in the members of their lance. The idea here is that every pilot of our unit can find at least three other like-minded players to drop with. If you're of the 'play to win' school, or just in it for the sake of play, there will be other like-minded comrades. I'm hoping that this organization will help players find other players that they like to play with, and overall lead to a tight-knit, supportive unit.

I would like to encourage mentorship throughout this unit, both at the lance and unit level. New players will be expected to report to superiors, but that is not to say that your superiors will "own" you in any shape or form. Rather, pilots at the command level will be expected to help new players along, whether through mechbay advice or one-on-one training.

/*/ COMMUNICATIONS /*/

At this time there is no teamspeak server for the unit. Instead, we use an app called Discord. It's a new free, secure voip app that allows you to make as many servers as you want, absolutely free. It even works through a web browser, and I find the sound to be excellent. Free voip server is a big plus, so for now I plan to stick with this as primary communications. Members of the unit will receive invitations to primary comms upon joining.



/*/ CAMO SPECS /*/

Raven Contractors Ltd. uses Beta Galaxy as a default mech decal. Members of RCL are not required to use this decal. If you're like me and have no problem spending a little MC to fuel your vanity, you're encouraged to don these colors.

There are also other acceptable Clan Snow Raven decals that look absolutely stunning! Refer to the following link for visuals: http://imgur.com/a/G1pNr#0

Great to see you took a contract with the Wolves!

Hop (er, i mean, fly :P) in our TS and drop with us :) If you talk with one of our leaders, i am sure you could get a channel for your unit. Several units already use our server to drop togheter and coordinate attacks.

See you there, or in the battlefield trothkin o7

Perhaps we could interest you in some advanced Ferro-Lamellor Armor? Research is still ongoing, but we estimate that our production lines should be up and running ~20 years. :P

In light of feedback I've received on OP, I decided to cross out the criteria for playtime. Any applicants who were discouraged by this point are welcome to reconsider applying. Thanks!

:D yea man Epsilon is my favourite right now! Dat Nova looks so sexy that suddenly I want to use it a lot lol.

I used to paint my Epsilon decals with Zircon, but something just wasn't right about it. After earning Goluboy in the recent challenge I swapped colours and suddenly the coolness readings were over 9000 for me.

The Gamma paintjob looks really good on the Timber Wolf. I like how the solid white highlights all the contours of the torso / cockpit.
