666th Devil Dogs [666TH] - Organizations - Roberts Space Industries

History

Founded in 2003 as a Planetside outfit, the 666th Devil Dogs have focused on strength through the specific application of massive and overwhelming force. Built on a philosophy of promoting a fun and friendly gaming environment for its members, the 666th supported over 2500 members on its roster during the peak of PlanetSide 2’s popularity. With such a strong presence—as well as an Operations Commander online 24/7 to help direct its numbers—operations ran around the clock, earning the begrudging respect of our enemies from every timezone.

Now the 666th Devil Dogs have expanded to the stars. Branching off into a large gaming community with members across the globe, we intend to continue the tradition of cohesive, coordinated and respectful game play with friends. Utilizing teamspeak, youtube and our forums, we will share knowledge and experiences throughout our organization. It is our belief that we can excel in any game, regardless of difficulty or complexity through team work, coordination, training and communication. As we gain more members in the Star Citizen branch, positions of responsibility will be added to the command structure. It is our goal to provide all members with a voice to decide what style of game play they would prefer and a community in which to do it. *Our greatest lesson we have learned from the past is that it is the members that make the organization strong. Not even the sky is our limit.
