Fort Triumph: The Battle of Fort Triumph!

Postby Benevolent Thomas » Wed Oct 22, 2014 12:17 pm



Opened on September 29th 2014, Fort Triumph is a Wild Western themed region that is aiming to and is building towards providing a well rounded experience to all its members including political, military, and cultural activity.

Town Hall

Fort Triumph’s government is designed to be a unicameral legislature. In Town Hall, all citizens will be able to vote and make policy proposals that can shape the direction of the region. From the region’s citizens, a Mayor will be selected to help oversee internal and external affairs of the region. The Town Hall has not yet been tasked with much as the region is still in its infancy, but it is expected that elections will take place before the end of the year at which point the Town Hall will be able to realize its true purpose.

Fort Triumph Marshal Service

Image

The Fort Triumph Marshal Service is the region’s very own defender military organization, led by Commander Benevolent Thomas, Admin Officer Land filled with People, and Officers Eist and Deadeye Jack. Since the opening of Fort Triumph, the FTMS has run 28 successful official operations that run the gamut of defense, liberation, and tag defense*. It has also had representation at every update since its existence. If you are inexperienced or new to defending, the FTMS is a great place to start. Its leaders are very experienced defenders with a good track record of training others and the daily activity will give you a chance to prove yourself.

*Benevolent Note: That's more than one per day kiddos.

Culture

The region is currently in the process of building an active community. An ambitious map and regional economy are under development. There is also an emerging role-playing scene in which forum members are encouraged to participate in whatever style they want. We are currently working on a Space Western RP . Fort Triumph also has plans to have at least monthly big events for the community to take part in. You can even earn achievements for participating in certain activities that will be displayed in your profile.

Benevolent Note: These cultural activities would include games like Werewolves and various competitions for the creative members of our community. We're also looking for some unique individuals to come up with some abnormally brilliant spam games.

Interested in joining?

If you want to join Fort Triumph, all that you need to do is move a nation to the region and sign up on our forum. We have maskings for residents, citizens, and diplomats (even some fun ones for friends and foes). Citizens are all members whose World Assembly membership resides in Fort Triumph or members of the Fort Triumph Marshal Service. If you have any questions about the region you can contact Benevolent Thomas, Land filled with People, or Deadeye Jack.

It can be done right. And I think we'll do it right. And god dammit do I not want to hear griping about PB all over this thread >_>

Edit: There are advantages to having PB and we will be showing those off sometime soon.

I said the same thing about PB, but, in FT's defense, the forum has a skin that doesn't burn your eyes out.

With this crowd I'm sure we will see some great things happening in Fort Triumph :)

We aren't those other guys, our Western will be a hit. Do you really want a list of the regions we've defended btw? I mean, we could just ask the invaders we've stopped ;) We were even kicking ass before we got around to opening this mother. Deadeye Jack is not even two months into his defending career and I believe he's already Officer quality. Not jut in FTMS either, any group would be lucky to have him.

I was referring to Festavo's wreck of a region :P I never miss an opportunity to make a shot at that with a revolver (LOL WESTERN JOKES)


Quite honestly,I think we need more insight on defender activities on GP - we barely see anything come along,especially considering the larger amount of raider reports

So by western, does that mean there will be a sheriff? Will there be ranks and what will they be if they exists?

If you're talking about in the defender organization there aren't sheriffs there are marshals and deputy marshals and other variations. We are a Marshal Service after all

We've wrecked many a noob organization if that's what you mean. We've even collected wins again the elites of the invader world with our currently tiny force. With some growth, FTMS' potential is scary. Of course many of our victories on the field would have been impossible without our friends across the defender (and independent) world.

Except the BIG operations like the coalition attempt,there isn''t much visibility regarding defenders,might be my love for statistics,but I would love a detailed report like the reports cora does

You mean to tell me you made a thread in Gameplay for your new defender region, that doesn't openly oppose the Black Riders?

Any origin for the name? Fort Triumph doesn't scream West to me but admittedly I can't think of anything that would.
