[-SPQR-] - Round XXII Recruitment
[-SPQR-] is back for round XXII, and we are actively looking for members. Round XXI saw us set a respectable core of dedicated members. We are now looking to expand beyond our previous limits.
[-SPQR-] has been officially playing for 5 rounds now, finishing 17th in round XVII, 20th in round XVIII, 15th in round XX, and 17th in round XXI.
Round XXII will see [-SPQR-] playing again, in a spirit that has always been ours. SPQR is a family, and all members are treated equally. We have made it a goal for ourselves to be an alliance where people can actually be trusted, and trust each other. Beyond the game, there is a friendly spirit that is ours, and which makes people return to us.
The main reasons why you would want to join us are: - we do daily raids, and have now enhanced home-made tools to help with attacks and defence
- we are always having fun and we play for entertainment
- we have a core of several well-experimented players, we are always ready to help new/returning players
- we are not requiring a lot from members - only being active and being IRC active is essential
- we are a strong mid range alliance that won't require you to be a hardcore player, but we will provide you with a great in-game and out-game environment
We always accepted new players and often those who joined late in the round, and we are sure to do so again. The ambition and commitment which was consistently shown by our members throughout the previous round is the sole reason why we’ve progressed from a barely top-30 alliance to a growing contender in the ranks of PA.
The name [-SPQR-] has gained respect through our previous good rounds, and we clearly intent to show that this respect is well deserved. Being ranked 15th throughout the whole of round XX is a guarantee of quality, and we are sure to maintain that quality over time.
What we will guarantee constantly through the round: - Organised daily raids to ensure your growth.
- An even balance between attack and defence to ensure we gain new roids and actually keep them.
- A fun and experienced player core dedicated to aid your advancement of the game.
- A dedicated officer team to help you grow and progress as a player, and to help you learn more of the game.
Drop by in #spartans anytime for a chat about either recruitment, to ask any questions or just to see what we’re about. Everyone is welcome there, so we hope to see you too!

Re: [-SPQR-] - Round XXII Recruitment
I've always wanted to ask why the public channel of the alliance named with the initialism of Senatus populusque Romanus called "spartans".

Re: [-SPQR-] - Round XXII Recruitment
Sorry, its just that every time our recruitment post goes up, someone posts this same question. When we started SPQR, we were creating channels that needed names, I think spartans may have been one of the candidate names for the alliance and it was used for a channel name. The only link I know of historicaly the Spartans were allied to the Republican Romans for a short period of time and also I have wargames armies of both.

Re: [-SPQR-] - Round XXII Recruitment
LOL Belly and thanks all.
Yeah, early thread indeed, I guess I wanted to have it more visible than it has been in the past.
For the fun, spartans can also be seen as "Spartalee Partisans" as he is the original founder of SPQR

Oh, really? I thought that the origins of it are widely unknown, and it's just something that appeared in use in the Roman empire. Always learning something new, though. Got any source to cite for more reading about the origin of SPQR or this Spartalee Partisans guy? A google search only finds this thread. Does this mean this guy also found the first Roman republic's government? Or is it some more modern instance using the same initials SPQR?

Re: [-SPQR-] - Round XXII Recruitment
Some of you may well remember Shek, who is Spartalee's father actually
Without them we wouldn't be here today. Shek is apparently not playing anymore???
I owe myself a lot to Spartalee, and to Deville, tabs, Killa, ..., and so many others...
Thanks all for wishes, and good luck to you all!
