Guild Info

Firstly it is recommended to read through the guild vision section so you’ll know if this guild is something you’d like to be a part of. When you decide you’d like to join us, please check out the getting started section

Gerrit’s Vision for Our Guild
[NL.] Goud Graaiers:
To foster a community where diverse playstyles and languages converge for seamless and enjoyable cooperation.

Faction Alignment and Your Gameplay:
Our guild operates as a flotilla and will continue to do so unless a WIC / Dutch faction is introduced to the game, or when we have build up our guild cohesion and strength for port battles, at which point we can pledge our allegience if the majority of our members wishes for a pledge.
So what does this mean for you, our valued members?

No Faction Affiliation: We are not tied to any specific faction, meaning we cannot participate in port battles.
Freedom to Engage: There are no reputation requirements within our guild. Members are free to engage with other factions as they see fit. (Please note: We strive to maintain friendly relations with other Dutch guilds.)
Neutrality for Safety: By maintaining an allied reputation with all factions, you significantly reduce the amount of hostile encounters from other players.

Our Unique Approach: How We Operate

Organized Squads:
Experience coordinated team play with well-crafted strategies designed to ensure collective safety and maximize profit for everyone. Each member plays a crucial role, eliminating the risk of anyone being left vulnerable.

Every organized squad features a dedicated squad leader in voice chat to provide clear directions. Squad leaders can also communicate with each other across different voice channels, facilitating multi-squad cooperation. For optimal teamwork, we highly recommend joining your squad leader’s voice channel on TeamSpeak.

While you are welcome to casually join an organised squad without voice chat, please be aware that TeamSpeak is our primary communication method for coordinated efforts, with in-game chat being secondary. Squad leaders find it challenging to manage situations effectively while constantly typing. Therefore, if you choose to tag along without voice communication, effective communication with your squad will be limited, and you will need to independently monitor your squad mates’ movements.

Chill / Laid-Back Squads:
We understand that not every session calls for intense focus. Our chill squads are perfect for those times when you want to relax, socialize, and sail together without the pressure of leading or strictly following a squad leader.

Chill squads can opt for voice chat or remain entirely text-based. However, it is advisable for the squad leader to be in a TeamSpeak squad channel to facilitate communication with other squad leaders, should the need arise.

Thursday Thunder!

Date: 24-09-2026
Time: 2000

Goal

We will bring thunder to the “Lightning” and any other Imperial ship in our waters, and sink as many as we can! Any pirate we meet along the way can also sink, but the Imperials have priority. We gather at Devios Bay before departure time of: 2000 (5-10 mins early so we can all leave at 2000)

Mission needs

Any ship you feel confidant in to combat Imperial vessels. Some of these targets can have up to 7k HP, or 15 Armor., and will deal significant damage to ships.. (Advised is to use any ship class 4 or up, with decent armor and weapon penetration) Bring plenty of ammo (you like to use) and repair needs so we can stay out a while.

Mission Strategy

We use our tactics to outmanouver the Imperials and show them what’s on the bottom of the Archipelago. We will all try to drop barrels and fire our main cannons.

Additional info

We will have lot’s of fun hunting these Imps and that is the goal, but we have a great oppertunity to to practise our battle formations and buddy system to! (we don’t have to always practise ofc, again main goal is the hunt) Everything is situational, and you being here means we can communicate, this is great! Even if you just listen in, this means you can hear whatever tactics we are putting in play. Let’s have some fun blowing these Imps to smithereens CPTNs!
