About Us
The 58th was founded within the MMOFPS game known as Planetside. Back then we played under the name of “The 58th Marine Corp (The Wildcards)” as a New Conglomerate Outfit on the Werner server. As an Outfit we had fantastic success as a well organised group and we helped establish and maintain an NCWerner alliance. The fight continued in Planetside for many years and beyond the Planetside period we have played many games together ranging from: Counter Strike (1.6 and Source), Battlefield (2 and 2142), Unreal Tournament, Dawn of War, World of Warcraft and the list could go on.
As a clan we were also highly successful in World of Warcraft, where we raided under the name of “Solar Noctis” on the Daggerspine/Kazzak EU server/s. Before the first expansion (The Burning Crusade) hit we had successfully completed both Molten Core and Blackwing Lair and were making our way through Ahn'Qiraj.
We are currently endorsing various games under our tag (=58th=) namely: Enemy Terrority: Quake Wars, EVE Online, Team Fortress 2 and the long awaited MMORPG Warhammer: Age of Reckoning, which we are now actively recruiting for. Our name is in reference to a TV series called Space: Above and Beyond.
Requirements
WAR Rules of Note
Conduct
Respect: Simple really; respect everyone inside and outside the team. Everybody deserves respect. If you have a problem with a player; privately message or speak with an Officer about it and they will see that your problem is looked into.
Constructive: Be constructive whenever you can regarding important matters or questions.
Reputation: Uphold it. Claiming someone is a cheat just because you think so is not respectful or constructive. Obtain evidence and back yourself up, then we can deal with it properly. The same can be said of grieving conduct in other games.
What can we offer you?
As a gaming Syndicate we can offer the following:
58th WAR Ranking System
The Guild hierarchy is in place to better serve the Officers and members of the Guild:
Prophet of Sigmar: Guild leader; sets the overall goal, has final say on promotion and recruits, main point of contact for inter-guild relations.
General: Guild leaders deputies: make sure the members know what's going on from the top, act as contacts for specific areas and maintain Guild relations and morale.
Champion:Top level for normal members who have no specific duties but have shown very good capability and willingness to promote teamwork and ambition as well as regular play time. Standard Bearer rank.
Captain: Normal members who are on their way to fulfilling the criteria for Champion.
State Troop: Normal members who have shown regular play time and ambition, but not enough to push them up to Captain.

Scholar: Writes and maintains Guild specific lore.
Please Note
