[edit] About The Imperial Guard
The Imperial Guard rises like a phoenix from the ashes of TIG, originally founded to play in Star Wars Galaxies. In SWG, we were located on the Naritus Server and stood as the strongest Imperial Guild in terms of members and successes. We had developed a large base complex that we defended from multiple Alliance attacks and we would lead "RP-ish" imperial crackdowns of major cities. TIG ran strong for two years and then slowly phased out as SWG saw less and less content upgrades.
For SW:TOR, we will be known as "The Guard" and will be bringing everything that was great about TIG and adding to it with a updated organizational structure, streamlined ranks, more player interaction in the guild (guild rewards based on a point system, things of that nature), and Awards/Medals to recognize those of our players who have dedicated themselves to the Guard.
The Guard will focus on the two primary aspects of a MMO; PvP and PvE. Our hope is that SW:TOR will include some sort of player build able community so we can recreate our infamous military complexes. But things like that will be completely dependent on the game. Rest assured, if there is a third factor available for participation (space battles, player cities, etc), the Guard will be active in it.
Our approach to PvE will be a staggered raid schedule that allows for multiple runs of "dungeons" each week. This will allow players in varying time zones to have a chance to participate, without being on-line at some ungodly hour.
Our approach to PvP will be driven by practice and training. We will select those individuals, whom enjoy "mastering" PvP in an MMO, and then take their expertise and train our other members to create a fighting force the likes of which MMO's rarely see.
Please take some time and enjoy our site, we have lots of information and resources available. If you think The Guard is the sort of guild you'd like to be part of; review our Code of Conduct / What is Expected of You information and then Apply!
[edit] Vision
The Guard exists to facilitate like-minded players in associating with one another to the ends of achieving a more enjoyable gaming experience than possible while playing alone.
[edit] Mission
To implement and maintain a guild that is representative of a higher quality of gamer and to provide those individuals with an organization that will help them to achieve in-game goals they have set.
[edit] Core Values
I. Provide fair rules and procedures that ensure The Guard meets its Vision statement but not at the expense of any players dignity.
II. Actively participate in our gaming community to support its growth.
III. Instill a culture of respect that puts our best foot forward with others.
IV. Utilize a chain of command to facilitate decision making both in-game and out of game, but NEVER to support one persons control over another.
[edit] Goals
Out of game
Create a professional website that supports all the guild members in their communication/resource gathering needs. Recruit quality players who can help groom other members to meet the standards of The Guard.
In game
Support the game developers by experiencing all assets of the game and by including our own play style (i.e. PvP supremacy, Role Playing events, etc).
[edit] Mission Statement
The Guard exists to successfully meet the founding Vision statement by following the Mission and adhering to our Core Values. Upon achieving our stated goals and objectives, the Guard will be a haven for mature gamers who are looking for all the support a hard core guild provides, without the utter and total devotion of time that normally accompanies such a guild.
