Vanguard's
Tap and Gambit

In an industry as stressful and dangerous as mercenary work, there's something to be said about low consequence violence as stress relief and a way to improve comradery. Stop by for a drink, conversation with colleagues, and maybe a little bit of practice.

About

The Tap and Gambit is the Vanguard Company's attempt to reach out. Inviting other mercenaries and companies to join them for an open house every other week. With a well stocked bar, a modest fighting arena, and a small kitchen the company headquarters, The Vanguard's Bastion, provides a well equipped venue for hosting any and all who come by. After all, what better way to unwind after fighting perilous battles than.. More fighting? With lower stakes at least.

While at the Tap and Gambit we ask you follow a few points of Courtesy.

  • Please use /yell for ongoing Spars. This helps to organize chat for anybody reading.

  • Please be conscious of the length of your posts, typing two paragraphs of fight choreography is awesome! When other people aren't waiting for their turn.

  • Be aware of your surroundings and don't bring a fight out of the arena unless you clear it OOC with people whose nights may be impacted.

  • If you plan to make a commotion with your post and impact the venue at large, by all means! But clear it with a member of staff first, we're usually open to that stuff!

  • Vanguard Company is a small time mercenary company, and we ask you keep in mind that we generally try to keep a low-mid tier power scale.

  • We use your typical three-point sparring system, please speak to a staff member to put your name in for a spar!
