well, I didn't see how it happened, but after most of the team logged and the buds cleared, I just saw a group of 4 GM's storm in, with 3 more a short time later!
was just a bit of carnage post raid, perhaps perimeter should stay in place, or defend the hill or something just as an extra precaution.

Yep that sounds good to me, As i have found myself that most of the debt picked up from Raids is given out by these GMs i dont mind picking up some so that the other heroes dont .. i meen iv already re-mortgaged my SG base a number of times to keep the superbailiffs at bay!
But seriously, i think its a great idea, adds to the service we provide and that can never be a bad thing!
Long live URPG!
Glad the idea is well recieved
The whole point of the Guard was to minimise casualties and to eliminate raidwipes though GM intervention and griefers, I think this falls in nicely with the first part of that!

Noooooooooo!
Seems I'll be working until 8pm tomorrow, so I'm relying on the excellent skills of the existing guard members for organisation and team setup!
I will of course, logout tonight in the Hive so I can drop into action the moment I get home!
Sorry to hear you can't make it Rorix

Perimeter Guard Updates!
having looked over tonights raid ( during the time I was there ) and speaking to a few other peeps there are a few suggestions we could try that I'd like to hear some feedback on
GM attacks after Bud Drop
I have seen no information to suggest player aggro against GM's tonight or last week that would cause 7 of them to attack at once. As such, I think we need to create an exit strategy for the raid where possible ( really need your input here Lost ) so that the Perimiter Guard are the last ones out of the zone, letting everyone swap their Hami-O's in relative safety in Pocket D or something.
We definately need to hold position after the bud drop though, that much was proven tonight in any case.
Perimeter Guard Events
I don't know how many of the guard use this, but I'm keen to get our defensive and agressive abilities up as a team and as such, I'd like to run badge nights, possibly tied into the Union badgehunter group, where we can achieve the badges needed for several of the accolades to enhance our HP, END and achieve the Archmage power as well for everyone.
AV missions
I would encourage anyone in the guard, as an event or not, to participate in AV Missions where level 53 SO's are on offer to enhance overall potential!
Teleport Strategy
I did some testing tonight and found that if you go to Independance Port, then teleport via a supergroup base to Eden, that you can return to the fight via base in under 2 minutes as a last resort, whereas other zones offer a return time of approximately 4 ( difference in time is due to time taken to exit hospital, run across zone to portal etc ) minutes.
If anyone, guard or otherwise has any suggestions as to improve the service we offer during raids, please don't hesiate to reply, or catch me in game for any discussions or events!

The base portal in croatoa is closer then the ip 1
We did a good job of being last out today Tsu, shame it was on stretchers screaming in agony but we did what we could
As for the badge nights I'm definitely all for that. I can't make the raid next Friday but I should be free any other night between time (except Wednesday - it's Valentines Day, after all! ) so keep me updated
It was good fun as always
Tiscali finally decided to let me log into CoH about 8pmish. Sorry for the delay in getting to the raid and thank you to those who covered for me. I have spoken to Lost and cover should be sorted for if it happens again. Though Tiscali keep promising fixes, so I live in hope that one day it will be sorted.
Paragon Girl
im up for any team events too, sounds fun
Tsumi i am definitely up for Guard teaming. it sounds like a great way A) for us to get better SO's and create strategical formations and attacks, and B) build up even better team camaraderie. Not to say we dont work DAM well together as it is. we should chat in Paragon if your around this weekend boss.
Which reminds me .. If possible i would like my team to all have me on Global, so if needs be i can be called for assistance in whatever you are doing. I will be on over this weekend so just search for either Crimson Belt or Crimson Peace.
Also .. i see that the Perimeter Guard is really taking off (well a good thing can never stay small for long) so i was thinking it may be time for us to name specific teams .. I.E have us as Alpha team, have the second one created as Bravo, third as Charlie and so on and so on. Just an idea
long spawn Hamidon and long live the Union Raid Perimeter Guards ... Hazaaaa
Ummm can i have that Avatar? i didnt realize youd made a PG on boss!!! i will do away with my Lateralus one!
Crimson mate check your PMs
Guard members are more than welcome to use the avatar!
I'm definately up for teaming this week to try and get some more tactics and abilities up and running for the next few raids!
I'll be online practicially every night this week - tonight included. I'd recommend all guard members say hi on the PG channel, soon as there are a few of us I will take on any mission, foe or badge hunting that will help
I definately also agree that for organisation and brawl phase planning, we could name the teams like Perimeter 1, Perimeter 2 and so forth so that team 1 brawls with the first round, team 2 with the second and so forth, keeping a constant deployment up around the raid, without having to wonder when its turn to brawl.
As for the Croatoa TP, I did some checking and yes it is closer, thankyou for the update! I just need to run around later and see which has the most convenient contact nearby for selling inspirations, should supplies be needed!
I also had one final idea, but really need to chat about it securely as its a bit wild as emergency plans go and I don't want anyone getting bizarre ideas based off the suggestion!

how about we start off with a set time? say friday before the raids as most will be about then i suspect, we could all come on a bit earlier (if possible) and do a few missions together before the raids? that way we all get to know each other, maybe go on team speak have a laugh? what does everyone think?
Oh and i feel a RPG own SG happening too if we carry on like this
I would absolutely be up for that.
and Tsu those tactics sound like a good idea
All hail the guard!!!

Hamidon Raid Perimiter Team
Perimiter Guard! Defending your raid needs since umm... today!
First off, I have to thank the following people for their support of this idea and helping make the teams a success.
From my own perimiter team.
Mongoose
Kriminal
aldwych
Dead Sorrow
Crimson belt
Felicia Nox
Krusty
Also, Streekz01 and the guys on his team, as well as the healers that assisted with the GM's. Apologies for not getting names, but hopefully we can rectify that soon enough!
Overview: The perimiter teams, on their first outing successfully engaged and defeated 5 GM's during the raid phases, with little interruption to the raid itself, or damage to those taking part in the raid. Callouts to the teams, communication and overall effectiveness were absolutely spot on and I once again give my thanks to everyone who took part in this! Everyone taking part seemed to agree that the perimiter team was a success and more importantly, kept GM prescence away from the group that performed the actual assault on Hamidon!
Updates: For those of us taking part, or wishing to take part in future perimiter duty, a channel has been setup called Raid Perimiter Guard which over the coming weeks we can use for discussing tactics, keeping in touch and for use during the raid.
Please please please only use this channel if you are actively participating in the community perimiter defence for raids!
Costume: as in the picture above, anyone joining a perimiter team should add the hazard tape design to their raid costume.
The setup is as follows:
Yellow base color, with black detail.
Blast bot helmet
All body pieces set to "tights" with the pattern "Sharp"
Again, please only use this design if you are part of the perimiter team.
Future plans: Because of the rapid response nature of the perimiter team, it may be nessecary and is open to discussion to use voice communication software, or a macro to announce the prescence og GM's or enemies that are making their way towards the perimiter, this can be discussed here, or on the perimiter channel.
If anyone wants to discuss the perimiter team, please do so here or on the appropriate channels on the server itself, any and all suggestions that are constructive will be greatfully appreciated!!

Just a note when clothing my scrapper for this i think you got the helmet type listed wrong? its the tech helmet we need not the blast bot? (or thats as far as i can see from the pics )
