After the Disbanding of the outcasts, Seargent shadow has set up a new team, TASK FORCE ALPHA.
The Searge (level 30 Tanker) is looking for fresh meat to protect the streets of Paragon City.
We will only be accepting players through the website, as in the previous SG there was an unacceptable number of non players.
You can post your Interests on the Forums at Task Force Alpha (this post will be updated once the web address has been changed - possibly to www.pillbox-games.com/TFA)
Im starting a new SG called The Heroes of Heroes if you want to join send me a tell or email to Hells Reject
Are you short, and often find that people are laughing at you?
Then you have a new home with us.
Super Group: The Pies of DOOM

<ul type="square">[*]HeeHaw[*]HawHee[*]Wibble[/list]

It's not really a themed SG but for any fans currently SGless who just want somewhere to hang,and I know there are a few of you in Paragon 
Just send an in-game /t to me 
The Daughters Of Temenos
We are a supergroup for female superheroes (you do not need to be female in real life). Although quite small at the moment we are looking to expand the group. Any level is welcome. We are relatively casual players so members of the group are not expected to play everyday.
Any one interested please either PM me here or find/send an in game email to Lil Bob.
'Monster Hunters Inc'

Not just the monsters as in the giant monsters of the game but zombies, shamans, trolls and such, of the darker side of Paragon. Looking for characters who have a monster hunter type feel and look to them.

@The Smoking Demon
Throughout history and across many sci-fi and fantasy worlds, the Nightwatch has stood vigilant over the gathering darkness, defending the realm from whatever the foe and wherever they may be.
Now the Nightwatch comes to Paragon City. Spearheaded by Commander Darkshift we will bring light to the dark and continue the fight against the evil-doers of Paragon.
Requirements for Membership
There is no restriction on joining the Nightwatch, heroes of any origin and of any archetype will be welcomed. We need as many heroes as possible to join up, so that squads can be despatched to wherever the threat of the gathering darkness is great.
Colours and Uniform
SG Colours are Black and Grey. Simple yet effective, they blend into the shadows and will strike fear into the hearts of the never-ending tides of foes before us.
Uniform may be established in the future but for now, the SG colours and sigil should be worn with honour whenever your actions are in the name of the Nightwatch.
Ranks
Commander is the highest Rank achievable and is reserved for Darkshift at the minute, as founder and principal of the group. Outstanding achievement and devotion to the defence of Paragon will see other Commanders named, and as the Nightwatch grows, new Commanders will be needed to lead various chapters of the Nightwatch.
Watchman is the second highest, and is the reward for distinguished service to the Nightwatch.
Prospect is the third and lowest rank, indicating both your new membership to the SG and the potential that all members of the Nightwatch have.
------------------------------
I suppose the above description sounds a bit RP. Thats not how I or any of my toons play, I just fancied having a go at creating an SG of my own with the most team oriented character that I feel I shall stick with thus far ;¬)
The SG is generally about being part of something and getting a team together when they are needed. Members are currently low lvl but with time and experience (xp ;¬), we shall grow and spread our influence.
Alt characters will be most welcome, as that is what the Commander is ;¬)
Not to be modest, but my experience thus far across many lvls and many characters has already benefitted the new SG's members and I'll give a helping hand to the Prospects and Watchmen of the Nightwatch whenever I can.
Send me a tell or email in game (to any of the toons in my sig), or a PM on the forum if you wish to join!
have you ever been wanted to be a part of something special?
have you ever longed for your fellow teammates to be all blasters like you to know what it's like?
have you ever open-mouth kissed a horse?
well never mind, we're the place for you.
its the new BLASTER ONLY SG. in future when teams want a Blaster, they'll come to us.
When a Scrappers damage just isn't enough, they'll come to us
when quicksand is your problem, Precision Rangers will be the answer!
So come fellow Blasters UNITE AND WE SHALL RULE!
We survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem. If no one else can help, and if you can find us, maybe you can hire: THE PRECISION RANGERS
The "Seekers of Intrinity" is a very friendly Union Supergroup with a memebrship of almost 40 heroes (some of which are completely insane) of all levels and abilities.
Anyone can request to become a member but only the three SG leaders (Spiritess, Draxion and Sir Blood) can recruit the requesting hero after being vetted during several missions.
Full SG details can be found on the official SG website.
The site is currently being hosted on Lycos till I find somewhere better to run it so I apologise in advance if the adverts bug you.
If this is the SG for you then please feel free to contact Spiritess, Draxion or Sir Blood in game. If any of the three leaders are unavailable feel free to put your request through any other SG member but please remember they do not have the authority to recruit but can pass your details on.
Additional: Still in the process of completing the members section and as it's in it's early stages the site is subject to change.
Any feedback welcomed.
I've talked about it, and now it is time!
Masters of Darkness. Only Dark/Dark Defenders and Scrappers need apply. Call Rachel in game. Newly formed, any level welcome. Any origin allowed. Get in early and create the group's story! Website to follow.
If Rachel is not online - /tell Dr Toerag (Rachel's dad in-game)
�How do I like my MMOs? I like them the way Paragon Studios used to make them.� - a fitting tribute from kiasa.org
EU, Union mostly.

The supergroup is now up and running. Supergroup colours are black and red with the 'paw' symbol as our symbol. There are currently three members in the sg; Myself, Seige Engine and witchdoctor. lvl's 12, 8 and 7. Considering it is a high concept idea for a supergroup perhaps it's more realistic if more alts join. Would work better too cos you could catch up with the rest of the sg. But any new characters with a monster hunter type feel and/or look are welcome and prefered. The ranks are, from lowest to highest; Zombie Poker, Witch Burner, and Monster Extraordinaire. Should have some fun lvling up together if you join and going to the new monster themed zone coming out with issue 5 too. Once the group gets stable I want to have regular supergroup teamup's.

There has been a reasonable number of posts mentioning a RAD/RAD SG.
What's it called?
Who's in it?
Who runs it?
What do they do?
Oh and can I join
The Precision Rangers Handbook
Welcome to the Elite of the Elite. Welcome to the Rangers. This guide is intended to keep you performing at your peak within the most dynamic damage doing force in Paragon City. There are four sections that you should read if you are to become a Precision Ranger.
As a Ranger you have entered a brother/sisterhood of heroes. We are more than just a supergroup, we are also an active community within the game. As we wait for the onslaught of the fifth issue in these last days of issue four we ready ourselves for the challenge of helping our fellow heroes who have been nerfed and need to respect, we ready ourselves for the challenge of taking on the enemy and we ready ourselves to HAVE FUN.
Section One: Our History.
During the Rikti War when every man, woman, and childs life were on the line the call went forth for heroes to come and take a place on the front line. These heroes came from all walks of life and all areas of the world.
The Airborne Rangers, an elite fighting force of the United States of America, sent their finest, bravest and most capable to the front lines. These brave few were the elite of the elite, men and women with special abilities who had chosen to fight for their country in anonymity rather than pursue individual fame and fortune. The group was called the Precision Rangers. During that conflict, in which the world we know was irrevocably transformed, the Precision Rangers led the way as a special ops group, doing deep infiltration, reconnaissance and key target missions into enemy held territory. They took with them the Ethos of their home unit, the Airborne:
First on the field, last off it, and never leave a man behind.
These unheralded heroes fought at every major conflict in that most devastating conflict. After the war finished the Rangers remained in Paragon City fighting for the rights of those who were unable to defend themselves from the hordes of criminals the war had spawned.
The elite nature of the group meant that as time went by numbers dwindled. Members died on the front line before the hospital recall system had been fully integrated and the leadership of the group chose to stand aside and allow new blood to lead the group into its future.
The Amazing Shnyet and Disco King JR were those they select for this prestigious task and these two generals in the field rose to the challenge. Calling all blasters to the cause the Precision Rangers grew at an astonishing rate as the potential for the group was realized. The Vision? To have an elect group who would be prepared to pursue evil and destroy it even through the launch on Issue 5. A group who would serve each other and bring their unrestrained damage potential in support of all other heroes who need their services.
Section Two: What it means to be a Precision Ranger.
YOU are the Elite. You are specially chosen to this group because of your unique abilities and potential. You have responsibilities, and you have privileges, congratulations.
To be a Ranger means:
You are part of a close knit group of heroes. We are a band of brothers (and sisters) who fight for each other and support one another with advice, side-kicking, exemplaring and having fun. No hero is too high or to low a level to support another.
Many of the group are regular members on the Forums and have built friendships on these and both in games, any perspective Ranger should be encouraged to join the forum and make friends with the rest of us. Were an easy going bunch, we just love this game.
You are part of a group of committed gamers. We play regularly with the emphasis on TACTICS, ENJOYMENT, ATTITUDE and MIRTH (TEAM). If you are in this purely for experience then you are in the wrong super group. However if you are in this for THE experience, then you are in the right place.
You will be the first onto the field of battle. With the dynamism of the group and the level ranges available there should be regular opportunities to push yourself and your abilities to the maximum, the Rangers prioritise their own over others, missions and hunts will be regular.
You will be the last off it. The group is not about levelling up, this is a nice side affect but it is focused on gaming. If you level during a mission in a team of Rangers then a private request should be sent to your leader asking to be released from duties in order to receive your training. In an ideal world every member of the team will level up within a mission (baring those exemplared) and it is more courteous to go as a group and level up when the opportunity arises, remember we leave no man or woman behind! Alternatively it would be good if members could not train until either the team disbands or you are required to log out and will not be returning to the team. This is to ensure that all those playing in the team keep a fluid motion of game play ensuring maximum use of time on the team. This is not enforceable but it is how the Rangers should play, and we ask that you set an example to all other heroes by maintaining this ethos when in other teams. Let us earn the reputation as the most dedicated team focused super group around!
Section Three: Strategy
As Rangers are all blasters strategy is one of our highest requirements from members. Our emphasis must be on doing damage whilst taking as little as possible and ALL ideas in a team are valid!
Here are some suggestions.
Before unleashing an attack slowing devices should be deployed, this will mean that things like Caltrops should be deposited in front of the group before a shot is fired. This will slow the aggrod enemy and ensure that the team stays safely out of melee for as long as possible. Blappers should stay well within range of the long range attacks, possible fighting over the slowing mechanisms in order add this to their damage.
Snipes should be co-ordinated and agreed. Area affect bosses and lieutenants should be the primary target, especially when in enclosed spaces where a skirmish (spread out) formation is not possible. If these targets can be neutralized then area affect and other attacks will easily handle minions.
Use of immobilizing weapons is definite positive motion. Especially if you see a comrade engage in hand to hand combat. Freeze the target who will be stuck with his melee attack, allowing your brother in arms to retreat to safety and use range attacks to safely neutralize the target.
A Lone Ranger is a dead ranger. As a blaster the sad truth is that you are a squishy. Wandering of alone in a mission is a more likely form or death than any other, bar punching an arch villain. Stay with your team, or at least stay in pairs to watch each others back.
Take the right equipment with you: Respites and at least one awaken should be in your inspirations slots, as should catch a breaths. Our fights should not last to long, but in war the unexpected is our greatest enemy.
The greatest tactic is: knowing when to withdraw and regroup. One man down can be saved, 8 men down cannot. Watch your health and the health of your team mates, share youre inspirations, and if the situation becomes dire retreat. There is no shame in retreat, but there is debt in defeat.
Section four: The brotherhood you have joined.
If you are not here then please add to this thread your general gaming times and a short bit about you/your character.
The Amazing Shnyet EN/EN: One half of the leadership of this group and a committed member of the City of Heroes community. A Blaster with the vision to make this super group the finest fighting force in the world of online gaming.
Disco King JR EN/EN: Co leader of the Precision Rangers and a truly funky dude. One of the fastest attackers in the game. Having attained level 50 with a tank he has a wealth of knowledge on the game content, a true tanks best friend.
Doulos AR/DEV: The first recruit to the group. Always prepared to help out any team, especially when a Ranger asks. A long time player with good experience of going through the early stages of the game repeatedly. Want help in the Hollows, give me a call, I call it home. Regular gamer between 7 and 8 (generally) on a week night, and 10 until late on a Friday night. If you want any help on writing a back story I love to help out.
Crimson Star EN/EN: Posts as Blue_Shadow
Icthalian EN/EN: Posts as Polar_Wind
Aeronaut EN/EN: Has a 3 weekly cycle of play time, but always look out for him when youre on. He likes a good team
it keeps him awake.
Blastess EN/EN: Posts as Tristar: Big hit and charge. A flyer who likes to keep some distance but will blast until there is nothing left to blast. Happy to mix it up in melee. Will be taking Medicine and therefore become possibly the most popular member of the group!
Lead Hose AR/DEV: Posts as Bigwilly
Smelt FR/DEV: Posts as Prawnee
Guise AR/EN: Posts as The_Jersey
Genergy EN/DEV: Posts as GForce
Standoff EN/EN: A true big hitting distance specialist. Has honed his skills to take down individual from a distance. Keep an eye out for him during the week, but mainly at the weekends. If you need his damage inflicting skills online let him know on the forums in advance and hell try to make it.
Scapegoat EN/ELEC:
Kronosy47 EN/EN:
Larac: the scrapper with an assault rifle generally on between 7.30 and 8.30 in the evening, debt and death come hand in hand to this fearless altoholic.
Joust: Posts as Chaplain, Blapper. One of the most well known and respected men on the boards, experience and knowledge to put the rest of us firmly in the shade, a one stop shop of enhancement information. A true legend in the City of Heroes world.
Lead Hose AR/DEV: With seemingly unlimited ammunition, this ladies' goal is to hose down her enemies with a continuous stream of hot lead. Look out for Lead Hose any night during the week between 7-11 UK time, esp. Thursdays, as well as the occasional marathon weekend session. Or if you see Flitz, ask him why he's not playing his blaster! Posts as Bigwilly, honest!

The SNHS is in a coalition with the other single-AT SGs (Union Overlords, Team GBH, Armoured Core and Precision Rangers). So if you are ever in need of a team all you need to do is ask on coalition.
Check out www.1atsg.com/1atsg.jpg for a picture of our coalition.
Name: College of War
Motto: Higher Education For Heroes
Website: The College of War
Colours: White / Brown
Contacts: Coldest War, High Priestess, Tenebra, Magister Barnab (contact us through in-game email or send a /tell)
About us:
With the current boom of single-archtype supergroups, it feels strange to advertise a completely normal one.
The College of War was created by 5 veteran players (most who had been playing ever since the US servers came online) with the purpose of creating a supergroup that doesn't "spoil the experience" for new players.
Many big supergroups have the problem that the old players are too eager to help a new person get into the game, actually spoiling the fun that is making mistakes and learning some things the hard way. So, with College of War we have established some strange-ish ground rules: No powerleveling, no "oh my god, your build isn't teh best!! here, make your character like this and u will pwn!", no spoiling what having the Omega Clearance tells you, etc. The low-level experience is as interesting as the high-level one, and growing up is a vital part of playing the game.
There is no actual "theme" in the College of War Supergroup - we come from all Origins, Archtypes and histories. We are just a community of learning and enjoying the game in all the ways possible. Activities we have been doing include a weekly Wednesday Task Force (or WTFs for short), participating in the S4 Tourney (as Army of Lovers), Death Race 2000, following cool story-arcs, hunting monsters and other stuff. Well.. generally having fun.
The only criteria for new people who want to join is that they can speak fluent English and want to enjoy the game "one step at a time".
