Editor's letter · 002Offseason & newcomers

We finally entered the offseason. A time to rest from GW, right? No! Now it's time for hard work, welcoming the new members, updating them on everything and preparing for the next GW.

In this edition we will introduce THE UNION to the new members, and tell the story of our team to those who don't know it yet.

A group of enemies who found affinity, synergy and complementarity. All with strategic and management skills, the way to equalize, even if only a little, the advantage of the big spenders.

Our fundamentals

Open hearts. Open minds. Goodwill. We build a united and committed team.

Our DNA

Strategic planning. Management of talented people. RSS management.

Nothing we do is random or by chance. Everything we do has a purpose and is aligned with our long-term planning.

Three wins out of five GWs, thanks to strategy and teamwork.

And that's how we build ourselves. And with our new members we will continue to grow and progress. Because The Union has just won its "third ring": 3 wins in GW out of 5 played. HUH!

Cesar the intern

How did you start playing this game?

[TU] Void

It was October 2023, in #518 Outlawz, honestly I can't remember the reason I downloaded TGM.

Cesar the intern

Just a moment, I have to pee ...

Dwin

Of course not! Are you crazy? Pee in a bottle right next to you and then throw it away.

Cesar the intern

Hmmmm, ok ... ahhhh, what a relief. Void, what part of the game do you like the most? Is all the money and time spent on the game worth it? And why are you still playing the game?

[TU] Void

I would say the strategy aspect of the game. Tower and Arsenal fights all need a good game plan. Nothing is set in stone until clock strikes 00:00.

[TU] Void

About the money, I would say 50/50 ... Anyone can spend money on the game and still get their ass handed to them. I feel it differs from person to person, but I will say to those who want to spend money to make sure you are spending it wisely and that the purchase makes sense.

[TU] Void

About still playing the game ... that's a good question ... at first it was mainly to meet a couple of friends that were in 518 a long time ago that left and ZERO their asses. Then it was to win a GW especially after the loss i took in GW 1. Now I continue to play to see how far I can develop and master a few strategies and skills.

Cesar the intern

You are one of the founders of The Union, are you happy with the whole journey so far? How do you see the evolution of the whole team?

[TU] Void

To that I will say trust the process, I trusted the process and it has worked out great. And more than happy with the results.

[TU] Void

About the team and the leadership: I expect everyone to take the time out to analyze the previous GW's and ask themselves "What can I do better? What things do I need to work on to be at the highest level that my stats can give?"

Cesar the intern

Any final message to the unionists?

[TU] Void

I don't ask for much from the Union, I only ask that you all focus on getting stronger and having confidence in your stats. Winning and losing is all a part of the game, you can't win them all. But you can't win if you don't try. I am always available to answer any questions dealing with "mansion set up", "gear set up", "raids" and "solo attacks".

Cesar the intern

Thank you Void! Brilliant interview! Now I'm thirsty, let me drink this yellow juice in this bottle here ... HAWK TUAH!!!

Don't be a hero or you'll get zero.

Anyone can spend money on the game and still get their ass handed to them.

When love is in the air ... or in the seaThe love boat

German organization, Scottish chaos, and Russian madness.

When love is in the air ... or in the seaThe love boat

German organization

MRS W (The Nun) and CARNAGE met in the game. It was during GW2 in the city 506.

"I used to laugh at people who fell in love on the internet or in a game, I was very mean to people like that", says MRS W. "And then he came into my life and everything changed, at first I was against it, but it happened."

We Germans are very strict ... I love his lightness, he alleviates the seriousness of my life.

When love is in the air ... or in the seaThe love boat

Scottish chaos

CARNAGE shares the secret to having a successful long-distance relationship: "the best thing I can say is if in that situation just be open and honest about everything, communication is key", and adds "it won't always be easy".

They recently met again in Scotland, for New Year's Eve, and spent a few days together. So virtual life meets real life.

When love is in the air ... or in the seaThe love boat

Russian madness

We have the Russian Roulette, I mean, the Russian Couple. And these two are opposites in every way, but lovely. They met during GW2 MD, FanatiK was hit by Cupid's arrow and lost his UB ... and dignity.

In the game, FanatiK is a monster. Fearless, hits like a nuclear bomb. But with Insomnia he is a baby bear.

Insomnia is from Bulgaria, but with Russian origins. She is the opposite, sweet to everyone, brings the balance that the team needs. But if someone messes with her little bear, she turns into a beast!

And here we are cheering for all the couples in the game, while the big gorilla remains abandoned, hopeless. Life is so unfair ...

The whole story about the origins of TGM's most infamous team.

Cover highlightThe Union untold

GW1: the beginning

It all started in GW1, involving factions and cities 513, 518 and 519.

On a boring day, bLZ (519) decided to attack the towers of A45 (513). That's when everything started to happen.

We quickly realized that we wouldn't progress in the game by wearing ourselves out. We had synergy and were complementary. And that's when we started to design the first merger. And bLZ and A45 spent the whole time fighting OLZ (518).

Cover highlightThe Union untold

Enemies & friends

GMB (519) was called and we formed a team called Zo0, and with that team we flew to city 527 to compete in GW2.

GW2 was very tough, with bloody fights between Zo0 (527), OLZ and XRP (518).

And so it all happened: at first we were furious enemies, but we ended up respecting each other, merging and planning a strong team. Focused on strategic planning and management. The only way to defeat teams of big spenders.

Cover highlightThe Union untold

The infamous team

And so THE UNION was created. With the name chosen so that we could always welcome new members. We forgot about our old teams and embraced a new one that would be global and inclusive, and that new members could always feel at home and integrated.
