Clan Texla monthly update: July 2019 An overview of *some* of our monthly activities! - Weekly Warzones (PVP event): Unranked groups are formed through /roll so that newer members get matched with older ones, and beginning PVPers can play with more experienced ones. We usually have two groups running, and sometimes we end up filling up all 8 spots in a wz when the Queue Gods smile upon us! - Battle Circles (RP gathering, PVP duels): Our warriors meet on traditional grounds to test their fighting skills against each other. Our ruling Clan Champion has yet to lose his title! A new Clan Challenger was named this month, however! - History and traditions of Texla (RP events): A clan elder gathered the vode on two nights to talk to them about the history of the Aliit and the ancient roles in the Texla of old, as well as the traditional mentor/pupil bond and a ritual combat practice. - Assault on Rishi preparations (clan story arc RP events): As the final battle draws nearer, several missions and skirmishes happened: preparing our tanks, seizing resources to resupply, an attack on our dreadnought and space battle in which our Alor’ad almost sacrificed himself for the clan - but was found in extremis by a subsequent search party, and a strike to disable the Republic’s anti-air cannons, followed by a last, clan-wide training simulation. - Defense of Outpost Zaroshe (server-wide WPVP event): A full squad of Aliit Texla warriors participated and successfully defended Outpost Zaroshe against invading Republic soldiers, and the Empire side won the event overall, defeating three Pub commanders whilst protecting their own. - Recruiting and training (RP): Three warriors were ritually adopted into our clan, and several recruits joined our Newblood Program and are undergoing training and trials to earn a place amongst Texla! - RP combat: A new recurring event has been started: /roll fights for interested members of the clan. - PVE: Clan members are grouping up to do Ossus dailies and other missions to gear up. - Conquest: We do weekly small yield Guild Invasions, to earning schematics and items for the guild. - Daily RP and PVP: Our warriors hang out at the clan dreadnaught between missions to repair and craft armour and weapons, talk with their brothers and sisters in the Aliit, spar to hone their combat skills, and group up to go in war simulations every day. We are recruiting people interested in RPing and PVPing as a Mandalorian - whether new to this or experienced. We offer a one on one IC mentor/pupil relationship: training in Mandalorian culture and Texla-specific traditions as well as a journey through trials to earn a place as a warrior of Aliit Texla (and also OOC help for RP, gearing up, PVP tips, etc.) 'Aliit ori'shya tal'din': Family is more than blood. Whisper Ves’ori’a in game (or do a /who Texla and ask for an officer), or contact Soria#7125 on Discord for OOC information or to set up an IC interview.

Clan Texla monthly update: June 2019 An overview of some of our monthly activities! - Weekly Warzones (PVP): Groups are formed through /roll to have random teams so that newer members get matched with older ones, and beginning PVPers can play with more experienced ones. Sometimes we end up filling up all 8 spots in a wz when we manage to queue at the same time! - Weekly Battle Circles (RP and PVP event): Our warriors meet on traditional grounds to test their fighting skills against each other. This month we added a 2nd title to battle for: the top combattant wins the Champion title, while the one in second place is the Challenger! Our ruling Champion kept his title all of June, and two warriors each had the Challenger title once so far! - Ancestral Texla training (RP event): The Alor led his vode, newer and older generations alike, in a ritual experience to reconnect with the ancient Texla traditions as a Force Killer Clan. - Dread-Seed corrupted rancor hunt (RP and PVE event): To put into practice the Force-related combat techniques shared by an ancestor of the clan, new and older warriors worked together to hunt down a Dread-Seed corrupted rancor (and earn the Lucky and Unlucky legacy titles OOC). - Assault on Rishi preparations (clan story arc RP events): a small strike team went on a supply run to get the tanks prepared for the assault of Rishi to retake our planetside base from Pub invaders. The officers met for a briefing on the next phases of the assault: an attack is imminent! - Iron Pact (Gar Saha) warband Crusade (server RP-PVP events): a large group of Aliit Texla participated in a clan moot: representatives from the various clans allied in the Gar Saha met to discuss current objectives, get to know warriors of the other aliits, and brawl in amicable duels! - Recruiting (RP): Several recruits joined the Newblood Program and were matched up with a mentor to start their training in Mandalorian and Texla traditions. Current newbloods are progressing through their trials, and one of our most talented new warriors triumphed over his trials and was ritually adopted into the clan! - WPVP: Several clan members hunted in the Gree-dominated areas of Ilum, slaying Republic enemies on sight! - PVE: Clan members are grouping up to do Ossus dailies and other missions to gear up. - Conquest: We do weekly small yield Guild Invasions, to earning schematics and items for the guild. - Daily RP and PVP: Our warriors hang out at the clan dreadnaught between missions to drink, craft armour and weapons, spar to hone their combat skills, and group to go in war simulations every day. We are recruiting people interested in RPing and PVPing as a Mandalorian - whether new to it or experienced. We offer a one on one IC mentor/pupil training towards trials to become a full warrior of Aliit Texla, as well as OOC help for RP, gearing up, PVP tips, etc. Newcomers and experienced players welcome!

Welcome back! I came back to the game last fall, after a few years of absence. I'd missed all the newer expansions, so I had a -lot- to catch up on! lol Everyone I'd known previously was gone, too, but after playing all the class stories solo, I looked for, and found, a guild that I love. I don't know what's your preferred playstyle, but if you like RP-PVP, and like Mandalorian lore, you may want to check out our guild for your jugg. Leaving the info here, just in case. Either way, welcome back to the game! http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=963793

Hello, If you don't mind having separate guilds for your Empire and Republic characters, you may be interested in our Empire-side RP-PVP guild, if the Mandalorian lore (and unranked, non-"pro" PVP) appeal to you. Our recruitment thread is here: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=9736276#post9736276 We are a tight-knit guild that is very friendly and welcoming to new people. Everyone gets to participate in all activities. We have a one on one IC mentor-pupil relationship for recruits, to train and guide them through trials to have them become full warriors of our clan. If this interests you, and if you have any questions, feel free to contact me on Discord (Soria#7125) or in game: Ves'ori'a.

Clan Texla monthly update: May 2019 An overview of some of our monthly activities: - Weekly Warzones (PVP event): Our clan formed teams for our regular weekly night of warzones. Sometimes we filled all 8 spots on the same side, sometimes our teams faced each other on opposite sides! (To be fair, we tend to do WZs spontaneously most nights too!) - Weekly Battle Circles (RP and PVP event): Our Alor leads a weekly RP event featuring PVP combat: all of our warriors meet on traditional grounds to test their fighting skills against each other. The ultimate winner holds the title of Clan Champion - until the next circle! - Rescue mission (two-part RP event): After a supply raid on Hoth turned bad, a rescue party was organized to retrieve two warriors. What seemed like a simple ‘grab and go’ mission turned out to be much more sinister, yet the clan prevailed! - Raiding a ship (first part of an ongoing RP story arc): Acting on one of our leader’s intel, a strike team raided an enemy ship for valuable cargo, a sizeable bounty, and other riches - though encountering a powerful, unexpected enemy along the way. - Iron Pack warband Crusade (server RP-PVP events): Aliit Texla participated in two assaults of the Gar Saha (or Iron Pack) warband: in the first, strike teams were formed for a daring space battle, and in the second, a ground assault was organized against the main Republic base in the polar region of the planet Phaesa - followed by an orbital bombardment. - PVE: Clan members are teaming up to do Ossus dailies and other missions to gear up. - Conquest: Our Clan is doing weekly small yield Guild Invasions, and earning schematics and items for the guild. We are always recruiting people interested in RPing and PVPing as a Mandalorian - whether new to it or experienced. We offer a one on one IC mentor/pupil training towards trials to become a full warrior of Aliit Texla, as well as OOC help for RP, gearing up, PVP tips, etc. Newcomers and experienced players welcome! Whisper Ves’ori’a in game (or do a /who Texla and ask for an officer), or contact Soria#7125 on Discord for OOC information or to set up an IC interview.

Hi there! From what you posted, it seems like we have similar interests in game (as well as real life obligations). I play a Chiss bounty hunter who was recently adopted into a Mandalorian clan. If you haven’t found the right fit yet, give us a look (and feel free to message me for info). http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=963793

We are hosting a battle circle tonight (RP-PVP guild event): it would be a good IC occasion for a potential recruit to come show their worth! Contact either Asuma or Ves'ori'a in game (or Soria#7125 on Discord) for info.

Guild name: Clan Texla Faction: Empire side (Mandalorian) Thank you for this initiative!

That would be a much appreciated improvement, yes!

True, having the in-game events on it too would be good! That way people could stop asking "when is XYZ starting/ending" all the time.

Would it be possible to implement an in-game calendar that would allow members of a guild to add custom events to it (guild meeting, war zone night, RP events, operations, etc.), like they do in World of Warcraft? (sorry for the comparison, eh, but they are efficient on that front) This would create more player engagement and give them more of a reason to log on regularly. Right now, people use a mix of Discord or websites (like Enjin), but an in-game calendar would be much more visible, centralized and efficient (with a possibility of reminders for events that people sign up for). Thanks!

Found someone for both my characters! Thanks!

Hello! I am looking for someone interested in leveling an alt, exploring the planets and questing in character (i.e. active roleplay-while-playing, not restricted to simply talking while standing around a cantina and such). I was thinking of trying either a Sith inquisitor sorcerer or a Jedi sage. This is for an alt, so I am not in any rush to get to 70 as fast as possible. I'd rather enjoy new stories and play leisurely for this character. My play time tends to be later in the evening. If anyone is interested, send me a message and tell me about your character idea. Cheers!

I'd missed this initially, I reposted it on my main's guild's forum (Dev'eri'tess). Thanks for organizing this! I'll try to make it to the next one if I'm online at that time.

Hi there! I'm leveling a trooper (gunnery) on Jung Ma, along with my other characters, and so far I'm loving it! A couple of days ago I logged on to see a military march by Shadow Company, an all trooper squad: http://atsoldrepublic.com/ The byline on their site says "We slay younglings", so they may be a bit more on the "bad a s s" end of the Light/Dark spectrum. LOL I spoke briefly with one of their officers, Stefan I think it was, seems like a good guy. I have also started rping with Vallum (aka Shrapnull on the forum), and I am pretty excited about the possibilities! His ideas seems more along the lines of humanitarian/protector of the citizens, which may fit my trooper a bit better. But either way, I think Jung Ma is a great choice to play a trooper, and for pvp as well (Terra Firma is organizing server-wide wpvp events, for instance). Feel free to whisper me if you do roll on Jung Ma. My trooper here is Olinore.
