Background

The 81st Marine Division, more commonly known as "Steel Fury", was mustered into service in 1999 to carry out the UN's space-based peacekeeping mission. Steel Fury was currently deployed off-world when a runaway Helium 3 asteroid collided with Earth wiping out most of the population. Since the "Great Cataclysm", we have fought in numerous skirmishes against Gigacorp security forces and Belter pirates. We were present during the great Outer Rim battle that helped turn the tide in the war against the Dreghklar Empire.

One of things that set us apart from other squadrons is that we loosely follow a military lifestyle. Pilots are broken up into groups who are in charge of several different aspects of the game such as miner interdiction or constructor defense. Our communication style is based upon established military standards. We have pre-mission and post-mission briefings. We even have cookies.

Steel Fury is currently looking for pilots who have a willingness to learn and can be a part of a team. Anyone is welcome to join as long as you can be a team player and follow the rules. Recruits go through a two week probationary period before being voted in as a full squadron member. Do you have what it takes to be a Marine? Join today!

Squad history

Steel Fury was formed in beta by Pierre and started as a french-speaking squad, but soon enough accepted players from all over the world. It played on the AZ and with great success, jousting on a regular basis with many of the top squads of the time. As the number of players started to dwindle when the Microsoft updates got scarce and the cheaters arrived, SF had to participate in FZ games to maintain a healthy schedule. Then Pierre decided to leave Allegiance for another gaming community and handed the leadership over to Aviation. Squad activities slowed down however, before vlymoxyd took the reins and signed up Steel Fury for AW3.

As the days darkened for Allegiance, Steel Fury slowly vanished, though many former members were still around. In 2006, however, Striker was summoned by an ancient call and proceeded to resurrect the squad and restore its former glory. SF is now a mixed crew of both old fogeys and new faces, who's been fighting its way back into the game and loving ever moment of it. We currently have players from all over the globe - even on that oversized island down under - and of many different nationalities. Many members have developed strong bonds, though it may have something to do with the ingredients of our tailor-made cookies.
