Formed in April 2005,it is the mission of Tartan Army to become a solid community of high-quality players
with a reputation that makes others want to be a part of it. Our definition of “high quality” is not the typical clan definition. We define “high-quality” as consisting of a healthy, positive attitude toward gaming; a team-oriented disposition; and a desire to develop strong gaming skills. Because of this, you may encounter clan members who don’t “own” everyone on every server they play on, or even score in the top 5. But you can be sure that these players are the guys you want to team up with: they’ll watch your back, listen to your strategies, always try their best to have fun, and never take off on you on their own “one-man army” crusade.

The Founder, Admin's and members of the Tartan Army believe that the online gaming community has also lost touch with its roots. When online gaming first became available to the average Joe, there was a greater sense of community: gamers were excited to have the opportunity to play against human players over the internet and never hesitated to help each other solve connection problems, pc problems, etc. While it’s true that many of the gaming forums on the net provide for this and contain valuable information, they contain just as much, if not more, flaming, accusing, and criticizing. Therefore, our first goal is to bring together a group of gamers who want to support each other, have fun, and show all those other clans what online gaming should really be about: having a good time!
