CORE is Recruiting! [PvP1 Dutch Nation!]

[Lyric]

Gentlemen,

 

We're very pleased to annouce that CORE is searching for active players of VlaggenKaptein [Flag Captain] and above to join our ranks!

 

Core is a multinational guild of mature players from British, to German, Austrialin and of course Dutch who's main interest is to have fun!  [English is the primary language!]

 

The Recruitment Process:

We accept all members who are 18+ years of age and have a rank of Vlaggenkaptein and above.  Once you are given a 10minute interview which briefs you on exactly how we work, you will be accepted as a trial member for 2 weeks.  When the 2 weeks are up we decide whether to keep you or not to be blunt!  The recruitment process is very strict because we want to know exactly whom we're spending our nights with.  We have no time for ambitious individuals putting personal desires above the clan, nor grown men who can't handle a loss.  Also if you are inactive for more than a week without informing anyone, it doesn't matter whether you are an officer, core member or trial, you will be kicked.

[We use a single, simple google document to manage everything from the roster to the ships order form + the economy. Not a website]

 

Our Economy:

CORE uses a very unqiue economic system designed by one of our members; Hugo van Grojt.  We are lucky to have more than 10 high level crafters, 5 of which are level 50.  Our economy is unique, effective and we currently find ourselves running out of slots to hold all our SOLs!!!  We also have a guild docks [seen in the picture below] which is where we store all of the enemy's captured ships ready to lend should our members require it!

[had to hide the location for obvious reasons!]

 

 

Officers + Progression:

In CORE the most important skill required to be an officer is purely social.  We need officers who CAN admit they are wrong from time to time and know how to back down.  We have no time for stubbornness for the sake of it.  Listen to other ideas and present your own.  Everything else, game knowledge etc can be learnt and taught. 

ALL of our officer positions are available to any member wishing to apply for the job.  If there is someone already filling the role which you'd like to take, there will be a guild vote during our weekly guild meeting.  You can be elected for EVERY job including guild leader if the majority votes gets you in.

 

 

Our Goals:

CORE is capped at a 50 member capacity.  The reason for that is because we want to keep it close knit, work together as a team, IMPROVE together as a team be and a formidable force in the Caribbean! We want to be able to recognise voices, and feel comfortable sailing with individuals whom eventually we KNOW can be completely relied on to follow orders eagerly and effectively.  In this, we become a valuble asset to the Dutch Nation in bringing destruction to those foolish enough to makes us our enemies!  Whilst we ARE very organised; we are still a very casual, laid-back and fun community of PvP players.

 

Whilst priortising the guild and the nation, we also have great interest in sustaining the health of the game.   As a Nation we have grown a great reputation for being very courteous and polite.  This is a standard we hold dear to us, as we belive much more can be achieved through positive relationships.  Personally I live by the saying "Kill them with kindness"

 

 

If this sounds good to you, hop on our teamspeak na.lynixgaming.com and ask for Monkeybullet [british], Flamigant [Dutch], Hugo Van Groijt [German], or just contact us in game!

 

See you on the open seas!

 

Safe Sailing

RESERVED for CORE BATTLES PHOTOS:

 

Dutch v French. We were outnumbered + outgunned but with a great opening tag + some great battle discipline, CORE led the way to an indecisive, but certain victory.  We were successful in capturing a 3rd rate in the first 10mins of the fight. I also personally captured an enemy frigate as I was sinking, sadly it made little difference! [You'll notice that some of the ship names were edited on, we were essentially trying to figure out what exactly we faced by using memory and some battle screenshots, we didn't manage to get all of them though! ]

 

 

 

CORE making a French Victory a Dutch Victory!  [iT WAS A COMMON ONE?!]

 

 

CORE led, but the credit has to go to the fantastic effort from our Dutch Captains. Everyone pulled together and successfully sunk 6 French 1st rates & of course successfully captured the port.

 

CORE led. Again big credit to the entire nation for pulling together + getting such a great result!
