Introduction

Apollo is an adult gaming guild that is mostly comprised of professionals, as well as both current and ex-military personnel, spanning all branches.

In the latter half of 2007, our leadership was betrayed by a former guild leader and cast out for being too close of a unit. We rallied together under our own banner and a decade long bond was formed. As groups of highly skilled players rallied to the call, a fearsome, and competitive army was born. Since then we have warred across virtually every major MMO that boasted large scale PvP and have made our mark as one of the most premier guilds around. Many of you will remember us from games like Age of Conan, Warhammer, Guild Wars 2, Darkfall, FFXI, FFXIV, Rift, EQ, EQ2, ESO and many more. With nearly 10 years of game time together, a strong group of 40+ long-standing members have returned in the hopes that this game delivers on its promise. Since making our announcement to join CoE, we have also enjoyed having many other like-minded individuals join our ranks.

We Are APOLLO and we have been waiting for a game like Chronicles of Elyria, for a very long time.

Apollo is a guild that is experienced in participating in all aspects of MMO gaming. From PvE raids to small and large scale PvP.. From resource gathering to crafting and city building. Games with these elements are what we gravitate towards. Our tactics and coordination are second to none. Apollo is well-known for destroying larger forces with significantly lesser numbers.

How We Operate

1. Apollo is lead by a council of long-standing members. As stated above, many of us have been gaming together for upwards of 10 years. From day one, every member has the opportunity to voice their desires for the guild. Taking feedback into account, our leader, Spongehunter, generally has the final word.

2. While we DO put in large amounts of hours, we put our real lives first. We do not want people gaming 24-7 at the expense of their lives and family outside of the game. With that being said, we expect your in-game time to be spent wisely and that we all strive to become better at our roles.

3. We expect all members to put the team above everything else. Being highly skilled does not replace teamwork. The selflessness in Apollo is second to none. If someone needs help, we expect all members to stop what they are doing and help them. When you need help, others will do the same.

4. During all gaming hours, we are in voice comms. It is a simple matter of developing comradery and being able to reach each other quickly. You may be in mute channels if you'd like, but voice comms are a requirement. While we use Discord to easily connect with other groups, we use Teamspeak for game-type comms, as it allows for a higher degree of organization on a larger scale.

5. We are not PC. We do not filter voice or chat servers for content, aside from what may be taken as malicious. We give each other sh** and rib each other regularly. If you offend easily, we may not be a good fit.

Apollo In CoE

1. Apollo is pledged to the Kingdom Of Kairos under the leadership of King Thared Richfort.

2. Apollo will be the lead contributor in all war time operations for the kingdom. We will place our settlements on the borders of hostile forces. We are the front line. We are the tip of the spear. We will be the first to enter battle and the last to leave.

3. Within Kairos, Apollo is tasked with recruiting, training, managing and maintaining the government sanctioned bounty hunters. This includes prioritizing the kingdom's most wanted criminals, setting and paying bounties and coordinating resources for the defense of the land.

4. We will take part in and host friendly PvP tournaments. We will help train members within the Kingdom Of Kairos in all matters of combat.

5. We currently have roughly 10 count tiers, 30 mayor/baron tiers, and many in lower tiers. This number is expanding daily. It is important to note that many of us will be consolidating our tiers in order to maximize EP for more defensible settlements at launch of Exposition.

Plans Prior To CoE

Apollo is making Life Is Feudal our next official MMO. We chose this as our next launch because it is a game that boasts many of the MMO elements that we love and because it also shares many mechanics with CoE. This game should be a nice way to stay sharp and/or to be prepared for the CoE launch. Being that LiF is at the end of its beta, it would be smart for all interested parties to get in now so that you don't miss out on anything! We are expecting LiF to offer a unique set of challenges and are excited to show the gaming world that Apollo is still as strong as it ever was, if not better.
