Long Range Tactical Group / LRTG

We the Long Range Tactical Group plan to carve out a name for ourselves on the edge of UEE space and beyond as a Mercenary outfit. With the launch of the Militia initiative there is money to be made in security and that will be the LRTG’s main focus. Protecting our fellow Spacers from the depredations of the Pirate and Alien alike. If the price is right of course.

With Security as our main occupation PvP combat will be our focus in space, in the air, on the ground and boarding actions. These operations will require combat support and logistics to ensure their success so these playstyles are just as important as the Ace pilots and Entry fraggers. Particularly with the permadeath features that the game will contain. Med support is likely advisable.

The group’s secondary objective is to secure our financial base by Freelancing in order to support our combat operations. Good examples being Salvage, which we are in the habit of creating anyway and Bounty Hunting which goes with the territory. Allowing us to procure the best equipment to give our pilots and soldiers the edge in their engagements. This will also allow our members explore the wide array of careers and industries the Verse has to offer.

The LRTG’s affiliation is MERCENARY

The Org is initially aiming for an operational strength of up to 200 members. We want to remain relatively small to foster a sense of community within the Org where everybody will be a name and not just a number. Whilst still allowing for the deployment of Capital ships to fight fleet engagments. It will also keep the amount of admin and comms within the Org manageble. It will additionally increase the amount of interaction with other Orgs in the Verse.

The LRTG is looking for English speaking regular players. Aged 18 and over. Since conversational content is often adult. The Org aims to provide its members with access to most of the starter trade ships and some of the larger multi crew ships the Verse has to offer. As is stated above we are going to be combat focused, but our experience from Clan operations in other games and the direction the game is developing has shown that it will be important to have a good industrial and logistical base, to support the combat Op’s. So any budding industrialists who want some action on the side are more than welcome.

We are an international Org with members from all over the world. With the majority playing in the European time zone. With players aged 18-40s. Older players are welcome. We accept applications from individual players and groups.

So if you match the criteria and like what you see. Just file an application and an officer will be in contact with you within 7 days.
