Sarmatian Manifesto

As a memeber of the guild The Sarmatian Knights a.k.a. The Free Army of Stormwind you take part in a story within the story. The whole idea of an army in Azeroth is to gather a large number of people who eventually will be raiding all kinds of horde dwellings. We do believe that we can mean a difference to the world of Azeroth and the outcome of the story on our server, Scarshield Legion. This is not something we can achieve by just playing along and see what happens. We will have to train and acquire knowledge, so that we one day stand strong enough to take on anyone who opposes us. And... this will only be a successful mission if we have fun all the way.

1. the main purpose of The Sarmatian Knights is to play a role in Azeroth
2. as the real Sarmatian Knights we are men and women who participate under equal conditions
3. as comrades we will help each other regardless of level, race, class or skills
4. as any knight our conduct shall be that of the brave, the loyal and the sacrificing
5. we shall always first see to the safety of the Alliance and its territory
6. The Sarmatian Knights shall be feared by the horde

Conduct The first any Knight shall consider is to help each other. The Sarmatian Knights do not tolerate improper action against fellow guild members. As we are of all ages and sexes we need to behave like Knights. The officers shall try to solve any conflicts without kicking members, as long as they can come to terms with each other.

Organisation The guild has three main levels in the hierarchy; leading officers, troop commanders and soldiers. The leading officers are those that organise the guild and put in time to make this guild the best possible, they also command the army. The troop commanding officers are those that organise the soldiers in legios (5 men) and cohorts (4 legios). The soldiers are made of the Auxilia (rookies) and the core of the Sarmatian Knights, the Legionaires and the Tesserarius (veterans).

Leading officers

• Dux Maximus - leader of the guild
• Praefect - two Praefects that acts as vice-Duxes
• Aedile - one person responsible for gatherings and festivities
• Officius - one master of ceremonies who also acts as the guilds judge
• Praetor - responsible for troops and training

Troop commanders

• Centurion - officer commanding legios and cohorts
• Tribune - commands a legio

Soldiers

• Tesserarius - veteran knights
• Legionaire - veteran soldiers
• Auxilia - soldiers of the guild

Promotion

• Every Knight will be a Legionaire when he or she reaches level 30. Some knights will be recognised earlier and become Legionaire at a level below 30.
• Every Knight will be a Tesserarius when he or she reaches level 45. It is possible to become Tesserarius at a level below 45 for distinguishing actions.
• Any Knight can request to become a Tribune. He or she needs three or four members to the legio they will form and command. They shall also choose a name for their legio.
• For promotion to Praetor and above any officer from Tribune and upward can suggest any Knight to be considered. The leading officers will then discuss the promotion and finally vote.
• The Dux himself promotes Knights to the rank of Centurion.

The Army We are already one of the largest guilds on Scarshield Legion. But we need more Knights to really become the army we want to be. Therefore every Knight has been given the possibility to recruit. Remember to tell the new recruits to look on this website and to register in the forum.

Meetings We meet for rest and recuperation at the Pig and Whistle tavern. Here you can always find a fellow Knight and officers. Make shure to visit this establishment regularly.

We will always gather larger meetings at the Meeting Hall in the Dwarven district. See below.
