I did a lot of playing for the victor. Surprisingly the most fun matches didn't count

The BWC has been amazing at teaching me all aspects of MWO. The comraderie and coordination is like no other guild I have been part of. I would recommend joining the BWC to anyone who would like to improve there game, or just have others of like mind to play with.

I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. I managed to level up a few mechs over the weekend.
Right now our website and teamspeak server is down as the S-6 scrum team is migrating everything to a new server. We do have a back up TS up and running. If any prospective new members are wondering just be patient. The tech weenies should have it all up and running soon.
The Black Widow Company Veteran Merc Corps is a fully supported Independent Gaming Regiment in The Black Widow Company, a gaming company that has been active for over 10 years in various games. We also support Planetside 2, Arma 3, Star Citizen, SWToR, and we have a regiment that supports many semi- and un-supported games. This is a great community founded by veterans and run by veterans. But you don't have to be a veteran to be a member.
If being a member of a community that has been around for years, and has been active in MWO since the beginning, interests you, come check us out. Once the techies get their act together and get the migration completed you can navigate over to www.the-bwc.com.
See you on the other side!

My name is Calmontrix. I serve as the Executive Officer for Crimson Reavers Company in the MechWarrior Online gaming Regiment in Black Widow Company.
I want to take a moment to tell any of you readers my experiences with BWC. First some background on me.
I served 10 years in the US. Army. I spent all those years in the Armor Branch as a M1 Abrams tank crewman. I was a loader, gunner, and tank commander. I know armored warfare pretty well. I served 4 Tours in Iraq.
BWC is more then just a Gaming Group. It's more then just a group of Veterans who get together to play video games. It's a Community. It's a Family.
When I first started playing MWO, I was solo. In a Raven 4X. I did solo drops for almost 2 months, and was attempting to be a scout for the groups I would play with. Some of you possibly said "Ouch" or something similar. Yes. Ouch.
I was drifting through the forums here and came upon this thread. The idea jumped out at me. "Veteran Gaming Community"
The idea struck me, being former military, as someplace I could join and excel. And I have.
But it's more then just improving in my Gameplay in MWO. Knowledge is power, and some of our members have been playing since Beta-days. But again it's more then that.
We play to win, but we also play to have Fun. Everyone wants to win, but at the end of the drop it's more then just numbers. It's the How and the Why. It's the Team, and it's about enjoying the past time for what it's supposed to be. Entertainment. But in a Structured way.
That's part of what BWC brings to the table for it's members. A structured group that provides not only leadership and training in-game. But also brings the experiences of it's members to the table in the planning of Training and Operations associated with that game. In MWO terms that means alot.
But, again, it's more then that. We have a Mantra. "One Team / One Fight" and we live by it. In-Game or Out-of-Game we have some of the best members a team could ask for within it's ranks. I have made some good friends during my membership, and I am sure that if you join us you will as well.
If your a Pilot looking to join a team of players who not only want to Win, but want to run the cutting edge of the Game. If you find yourself playing in the Solo-Que and are tired of grinding away by yourself, and want to join a Team. If your a Pilot who wants to learn the finer points of how to survive in a Jenner better, how to lead a push with your Atlas, or how to best load out your Direwolf. If you want to be part of a Team, and a member of a greater Community.
If you want to be a member of a great Community and Family of Veteran Gamers then Black Widow Company is for you.

My name is Citizen-Geronimo. I serve as one of the Operation Sergeants for the Crimson Reavers, a MechWarrior Online gaming Regiment within Black Widow Company.
I served 21 years and retired from the United States Navy. I deployed in support of the Gulf War, Somalia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and supported many operations in support of the ongoing War on Terrorism. I have over 6,000 flight hours and understand military doctrine very well.
I joined BWC over 1 ½ ago as a Star Citizen Primary. BWC supports many online communities, and I have played with the Company within PS2, War Thunder, Star Citizen, and of course MWO.
My job as Operations Sergeant is to hold formal training/practice events, in which we as a unit, better our playing skills, coordination, and kinship.
You do not have to be a Veteran to join BWC, but you will find the unit is disciplined, we don’t put up with nonsense such as racism, harassment, or vulgar Coms. We do play casual as well as competitively, and we fight under the ethos “One Team, One Fight”.
If you want to be part of an organized, professional group, I would highly recommend taking a look and submitting and application to join BWC.

In The Black Widow Company Veteran Merc Unit we have many options for you, as a member of this community, to take interest in. We currently have two tournament teams, one for EU and one for NA, that both do very well. We also have line comapanies, like Geronimo alluded to above, that will be the tip of our spear in Community Warfare. Each company has a command structure in place with full supporting elements for operations, planning, training, and logistics. It's not uncommon, and I'm sure many of you out there have seen us, to see [BWC] groups from 4 man lances to 12 man teams on the field.
BWC as a gaming company has a meta game of our own. We have a rank structure and award program that rewards our members for their in game and community actions and achievements and with the MWO Regiment we've tied many of those awards to the in game award system.
And like we've said before MWO is not the only game we play in The Black Widow Company. I have played PS2, War Thunder, and others when I'm taking a break from MWO or when we have a large operation to support. Yes, you'll find many tankers in PS2 that are Mechwarriors in MWO. And speaking of tankers we've started up a small unit in World of Tanks recently under our Vanguard Regiment, which is the unit in our outfit that is responsible for unsupported/semi-supported games.
On top of all that we offer is the fact that we are a close knit community of people that like to play video games in a team, having fun together. We support each other out of game as well.
If you are unattached and don't want to Lone Wolf anymore, or simply want to see what being a member of a top gaming company is like, check us out at http://the-bwc.com . We have been a part of this community for over two years now and I don't see us leaving any time soon.
See you on the other side!

BWC is also a very flexible organization. I started out as a "Line Company" member, working to develop a competitive team; subsequently my circumstances changed, and I decided to ease back on the time commitment that Line Company membership required, to become more casual in my play - BWC supports both extremes.

BWC bids welcome to Commander Kerensky - we did indeed have a lot of fun drops as 10man groups - and had quite a few other active members in smaller lances running trainings and drops.
As a company we span all time zones, and have fielded successful competitive teams in more than one competitive League.
Community Warfare is about to go active - get with our community and have more fun than you are now.
