Nice! One day I too hope to run with some competitive minded players! +1 Do you allow players to visit your voice communication server or have like a guest night? Thanks!

Sorry for my late reply here,

Of course we allow everyone of any walk to drop with us, we do 12s almost every night for a few hours, so we try to fit people into it as we can. Bear in mind of course that we can't always get random people in as some nights as we are practicing most times as well.

Our Teamspeak is a open and public as it is the meeting place of most (if not all) Leagues and Campaigns for competitive play. In addition it houses the units of the Mercenary Star Colition of units (SJR, SWK, 228th, QQ, Rem) and units that need teamspeak space for their Competitive teams (BoS and SiG).

Hope to see you around.

It's been requested that our thread gets moved to the top of the pile again, well here goes.

Hello! Just want to give you guys an invite to a league we have created:

With the advent of private lobbies we will have the opportunity to play 1vs1, 4vs4, 8vs8, and 12vs12.
We have created traditional ladder leagues to give everyone a chance to play opponents around their same skill level and be the best that they can be.
There is no cost and everyone is invited to play. There is something here for everyone.
League play will begin on Monday 5/5/2015 at 10PM EST. Check the website for all the details!

How would one go about joining your unit? Looking at my options for units right now since I'm getting serious about this game again.

The link that says "Visit Us" on the OP does not work.

Thanks for a great event, and hope to meet you soon in future possible training scrims.

Spent Friday, training some Clan Wolf Delta members. Saturday, mixed private 12s, and Sunday did a bit of training with the guys over at Night Watch. Not too bad of a weekend!

[Deadfire]

Met Ace's Wild Echo Company today for a training session. Hope we helped answer some Questions and Concerns about the Competive scene they all had and will be in touch to help close the gap, to see more people having fun and feel the trill of the best gameplay MWO can provide.

Though I'm a casual player and do not fit the bill for your recruitment process, I highly enjoyed reading about your unit. All the best!

Thank you for your interest in us, we always try to make it as interesting as we can

As well, Casual players are accepted all the time in the 228th, as we value players of any skill or amount of free time that wish to play with others. The 228th started playing competitively as a outlet for our members to enjoy that wished too. It provided even those casual players that couldn't commit fully to competitive play, to learn and improve their own gameplay from those that were. In addition every weekday other then twice a week and/or match times, every member of the 228th is invited in our organized teamplay sessions (which with lobbies adds tons of different things we can do). After all the 228th is all about teamwork, fun, and blowing stuff up.

Also as a note to other units that still need people for their PGI tourney teams, we have some members of the 228th that need a home for it. Contact us on the MercStar TS if interested.
