The Godhand

Faction Mission Statement
The Godhand aim to be an elite pirate company specialising in small gang warfare, sabotage and guerilla tactics.

"Survivors of a fallen world..."
''The Godhand are refugees from a fallen world many lightyears away. Formerly the elite wing of a long forgotten empire's military, we are now nomads who have turned to piracy and anarchy.''

Founded in August 2019 for Starbase but consisting of core members who have played a range of other games together, the Godhand are a group of mature, PvP oriented players. The name and logo are from a cancelled game called Worlds Adrift. In that games lore, the Godhand were the elite wing of the Saborian empire's military. Strite, the Godhand's leader, works at Bossa Studios (the team behind Worlds Adrift) and thought the name was a nice little nod to the game.

Ranking Structure
We've adopted a simple hierarchical structure within our group, the ranking system is as follows:



The higher the rank the more responsibility it carries and selection for the highest ranks will be very selective to ensure the community is run by those that have its best interests at heart. Here's a rough breakdown of the kinds of responsibilities you can expect with each rank, in reverse order of lowest rank to the highest.
 * The Greens - New and probationary members are classified as "Greens". You have very little responsibility other than showing up and playing with us and being active on the discord/website.
 * The Marauders - Standard members who have passed their probationary period. Like the Greens you have no real responsibility to worry about other than playing with the community, but taking that little extra step and helping out voluntarily won't go unnoticed.
 * The Chosen - Marauders who go a little above and beyond will be selected to become Chosen. You have a few more responsibilities on your shoulders such as general moderation duties on the discord (deleting spam posts and generally keeping things clean) and will also be responsible for helping to organise in-game events such as fleets and roams. Whilst it's unlikely that you'll be responsible for commanding your own fleets at this rank (unless it's an op you've arranged personally) you will be responsible for helping out the higher ranks during group ops.
 * The High Guard - You're essentially our head moderators. Outside of game you'll be responsible for helping to manage the discord, moderate website content, organise events and generally provide a guiding hand to the rest of our community members. In-game you'll be helping the Hands on larger fleet ops and commanding your own small roams once you feel confident enough.
 * The Hands - The Hands are the highest ranking members within the Godhand and are essentially administrators. Your responsibilities at this rank will include managing all administrative duties across our channels (discord, website and social media) and helping to provide instruction to the High Guard and Chosen ranks as well as the rest of the community. In-game you'll be the head honcho when it comes to operations and will be responsible for ensuring our success fleet engagements and other operations.
