DB News

We have seen a few things taking place inside of the Brotherhood as of late, in the form of Fictional and Gaming developments that we are going to go into a bit more in detail. Recent news from the Office of the Voice is that we are currently running a tournament inside of the ACC. Furthermore, you are able to (if you have taken both of the ACC Exams) challenge friends to duels. Though in the Beta stages yet, we strongly recommend that you give it a shout out, it is well worth taking a try at the ACC.

Next is onto Gaming news. As you have probably seen the GMRG just took a reshuffle on the way that the system works. Also, for those that are unaware, a new ToR Patch recently came out, brging in update 2.6 to the game. This offers a new ‘Tactical Flashpoint, Kaut Drive Yards. Or if you just want to game in general you can, #DBgaming is easily open for everyone to enter.

Clan News

As you all know, we’ve been running Operation: Sojourn, and the Operation is now closing. Results will be released soon, but while we wait, we’re going to give it a spotlight. It has been awesome to see so many of us participate in it, and we’ve been able to see both the members that participate as well as the guys from behind the scenes that has made all of this possible. This entire event was truly a fantastic display of how Arcona can function as an amazing, kickass Clan.

So, we would like to give you all a huge thank you for both the time and effort that you have put into this event. Also, a huge shout-out to organisers of the event: Wally and Legz have given this their all, and it has really been a pleasure to see this event run its full course. So, thank you everyone for the amazing show that you all put on!

House News

Change is inevitable, and people come and go, leaving behind their legacy in their actions. We would like to take the time to give a huge shout-out to Kordath Bleu d’Tana. His hard work as BTL of Dark Forge has been appreciated during the majority of the Dark Crusade, our Operation, and all the months up until now. Bearing all his effort in mind, he has decided to step away from leadership and resign from his position as Battleteam Leader. He will be releasing his final DF Report, summing up the end of the Operation, so keep your eyes out for Kordath’s Battleteam Leader Report. Thank you for your drive, devotion and dedication to the position, Kordath. It is truly appreciated.

This means that we will have a BTL opening. The information you will need on applications will be summed up in Wally’s coming report. So, if you are interested in this position, please keep an eye out for his next report.

Summit’s Thoughts

Stuart: I have been serving you guys now for a while, we have seen many changes taking place, walked threw a Dark Crusade and now an Operation. I have learned during my time that this clan will always strive for perfection. This comes from the entire summit, but also the members in Galeres. Each of you, give me everything and in return I give you the same back. I know that I can count on each one of you, rely on each one of you and trust you. Together we make ourselves into a family. Arcona, threw hardships, tough times we always stand by each other no matter what. I just want you guys to go out there, continue enjoying yourself and making sure that you have fun inside of the Brotherhood, Arcona and Galeres. Remember if you need anything at all, just come and hit me up on IRC or via Email. I will get back to you ASAP, this also goes for your respected BTL’s. Thank you all for making Arcona and Galeres what it is today.

Abbey:

It was an honest-to-god honor to work alongside everyone during Op: Sojourn. The DC had a lot of pressure behind it, but this was a chance to really see you all enjoy yourselves, rally together some kickass teamwork, and have fun. It’s wonderful to look around and go, “Yeah, our Clan is epic. Like, really epic.” And the best part? I know we’re all only going to get better. Whatever comes next in the DB at large with the next War, we’re going to conquer it. So, keep it up. Have each other’s backs. We’ll get frustrated sometimes, but we’ve always gotta remember where our family’s at. As some of the big boys like to say, “One Clan”. Thanks guys, for rocking.
