SteelSandwich Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 (edited) The Dutch Antilles Squadron''The Dutch Antilles Squadron’s main duty is to guarantee the safety, preservation, and territorial sovereignty of the Dutch faction and her allies.'' We are not a PvP only group (but we sure do enjoy a decent battle), and are willing to help out new players from the moment they join the game. All you have to do is send us a message. What we can offer to new players is knowledge of the game, protection, good ships and inside traders information.While in the current state of the game being largely combat only, the Dutch Antilles Squadron also has a mission to support and encourage international trade within our own ranks.The main players that we are looking for are players that enjoy Naval Action, and don’t cry too much when they lose their ship (because it is going to happen someday anyway). For us, diplomacy is a very important thing. Due to the Dutch not being one of the major factions in this game, we understand the importance of maintaining relationships with rival and friendly groups. Therefore, our TeamSpeak is open for any faction wishing to use some of our public rooms. Our TeamSpeak address is na.lynixgaming.com for any that are interested in joining or having negotiations. As mentioned in a separate thread, our Teamspeak na.lynixgaming.com is an open Teamspeak. It means players of all nation can join and have fun. With 250 slots we currently also are the biggest Teamspeak out there. I sincerely hope to meet all of you who decide to fill the rank! - Rear Admiral SteelSandwich Edited January 27, 2016 by SteelSandwich 12
Prater Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Due to the Dutch not being one of the major factions in this game, While the Dutch might not have as many players as the US or British factions, your group is one of the main powerhouses in the game (top 5) and an important one at that. Don't try to diminish yourselves. Your Diplomacy often means victory or defeat for one side or the other. 2
Charles Caldwell Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Welkom Good to see your presence finally on the boards, a welcome addition to the many fleets in NA.
Booyaah Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Don't worry, once we demolish PsychodelicDream's last durability on his full carronade Santi, they won't be a powerhouse anymore 1

Don't try to diminish yourselves. Your Diplomacy often means victory or defeat for one side or the other. True, but it's a bit easier to shout out "Rule Britannia!", "Vive la France!" and "Arrrghhh!" than "Voor de Glorieuze Nederlands Factie!" Welkom Good to see your presence finally on the boards, a welcome addition to the many fleets in NA. Yeah, we delayed for a while, we were waiting for the game to be closer to release before announcing. Too be honest, I am surprised that we have gotten as far as we have, there is a reason why I named my character CommodoreWesleyTestDutch, I was totally expecting to have to make a different character to play the game. Don't worry, once we demolish PsychodelicDream's last durability on his full carronade Santi, they won't be a powerhouse anymore We bemoan that day. And everyone thought I was silly when I put cannonades on a Bellona the first time... Edited August 17, 2015 by CommodoreWesley 2
Zeekoning Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) True, but it's a bit easier to shout out "Rule Britannia!", "Vive la France!" and "Arrrghhh!" than "Voor de Glorieuze Nederlands Factie!" You could always yell "Gaan met die banaan!" Edited August 18, 2015 by Zeekoning
Wicked Mouse Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) Not to sound like a total history buff, but wouldn't it be more fit to call yourselves West India Company or something similar? Since the Dutch Antilles as such didn't 'exist' until the 1950ies Edited August 23, 2015 by Wicked Mouse 1
SteelSandwich Posted August 25, 2015 Author Posted August 25, 2015 It would be more accurate to call ourselves the Geoctroyeerde west-indische companie, but for 2 reasons we haven't: - the name is already in use. Some time ago there was already a guild formed under the name WIC, but it seems that those guys aren't playing anymore. - we guard the dutch lower Antilles, so it symbolizes what we do^^
Wicked Mouse Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Can't help to think that the name's a too modern concept I guess I'm just a nit-picker like that
Lytse Pier Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 I'll make sure to visit this game more often now it is more matured. Very interested to see how the trading system will work out in this game. I do hope they will put more time into the user interfaces, that is for sure. ;-)
Jester_Tull Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 The Austrian Fleet is sailing for the dutch antilles squadron. 2

SteelSandwich Posted October 30, 2015 Author Posted October 30, 2015 With the newest patch its possible to create clans. Hereby the announcement that the DAS is created ingame and that people can officially apply. ''Voor het volk, het vaderland en de buit!''
Horus Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Do the DAS have a cavalry squadron sir? Or is that only the French?
SteelSandwich Posted November 2, 2015 Author Posted November 2, 2015 Do the DAS have a cavalry squadron sir? Or is that only the French? We do not. Yet we do organize an annual field trip to chatham. 1
Horus Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 We do not. Yet we do organize an annual field trip to chatham. It's a shame you didn't fix up Sheerness when you had the chance! Anyway, enough frivolity, I have followed the exploits of the DAS over the past few months and although I do not intend to join NA until it is released on Steam I would like to offer my meagre services to the DAS when I do, if you will have me Sir.
SteelSandwich Posted November 3, 2015 Author Posted November 3, 2015 Well, If you are interested, you can always visit our TS: na.lynixgaming.com Have a chat, or just listen if that has your preference, and see for yourself if it meats your expectations

SteelSandwich Posted December 19, 2015 Author Posted December 19, 2015 With the sales open again, i feel obliged to enlighten the landlubbers that the Dutch navy is still looking for volunteers. What we can offer to new players is knowledge of the game, protection, good ships and inside traders information. Are you worthy of the Red, White and blue? Yours Sincerely, -SteelSandwich 'Voor het volk, het vaderland en de buit!' 1
Bart Smith Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Where is DAS nowadays? Checking TS since few days and cant see nobody...
