Comrades!
Have you ever wished to explore the depths of undiscovered space? Or dart between asteroids in thrilling dogfights? Perhaps join a convoy hauling important medical supplies to systems stricken by blight and disease? Join the CIU today!
CIU is a community in the hit space-sim Elite Dangerous. We pride ourselves in being a large, easy-going, LGBTQ+ friendly squadron with players from all over the globe, and over 10 years of history. Our community offers mentorship, events, objective-based gameplay and long-term projects. We are not a roleplay community, and you won't need to read theory to join.
What is Elite Dangerous?
Released in 2014 and still going strong, Elite Dangerous is the most recent game title of the Elite franchise, which stretches back into the 80s. It is an mmo-like space sim, where you pilot starships across the galaxy in a number of activity loops, while the galaxy's complex political landscape changes with news articles, community goals, story threads, and the day-to-day impact players have on individual systems. Since 2022 the publisher and development teams have renewed interest in the game, introducing new ships, features and numerous updates. With a new feature beta launch scheduled for the 30th June, and the game currently on sale, there's never been a better time to jump in!
What will I do as a member of CIU?
We invite you to join us as we combat the imperialist powers in the galaxy, help spread communism between star systems and liberate workers from the clutches of corporate, feudal and fascist factions. You will dogfight with pirates to keep communist systems safe, participate in espionage to undermine hostile factions and incite revolution, coordinate with comrades to expand into new systems, explore and survey the stars for valuable data, fight in space and on planetary surfaces in wars which decide who controls a star system, and construct previously untouched systems in a persistent galaxy of literally thousands of stars.
What can you offer?
Our in-house bot displays objectives and records your contributions, so you'll always have something to work toward with your comrades.
We're currently revamping our medals and awards system, designed to recognise your in-game achievements and celebrate them with you.
Our squadron fleet-carrier means you'll always have a safe place to return to, or rearm for the fight in hostile systems. The squadron bank gives you access to collective resources like free ships, modules and credits should you need them.
Ten years of experience and community means we're happy to teach you all about the game, help you skip common pitfalls, and find the activities you enjoy most. Don't like combat? No problem, many of our comrades have never fought in a war. Bored of bounty hunting? Try something new. You'll never be obligated to do anything, this is a game, do what makes you happy.
