Official Division Logos

[Kal]

One of my proposed structures can be found by searching for "divisions of test" and "brainstorm" in the same search query.

Proposed Structure: https://testsquadron.com/threads/discussion-divisions-of-test-brainstorm.3793/

I like how simplified your recommendations are. The shared leadership seems like it would allow for better coherence and more effective planning within similar specialties.

Edit: Unless the intent is to have nearly complete separation from each division to minimize risk of compromising the whole. If Eve is any indication of what some SC pilots might be capable of, it's probably not a bad idea.

Very nice work Krystal! There wouldn't happen to be high resolution or vector versions of these somewhere would there?

 

[AntiSqueaker]

They look nice. I like them.

 

[maynard]

I approve

surrounding the logos with wreathes like the UEE and Star Citizen logos have would be cool IMO

 

[Adiran]

I like the logos. But I think a lot of people seem to be confused. lol It has been clarified by several people so I wont add my clarification, but a clear drawn out picture is what they want. But we are so early in the game we don't have one. Trust in the system and all will be well. As the game comes closer to release the leadership/division structure will do the same.

There are 2k versions but I will vectorize them and give them out

I would love a copy of the exploration and mining logos when you are ready to hand them out.

Updated OP with vector file download.

So would there potentially be subdivisions? Not trying to over complicate things, but a list of what each group covers would help those looking to do something more specific.

For example... Would information runners fall under racing, diplomacy or something else like media. Will we continue with salvage under the mining division?

Just food for thought.

Beautiful work Krystal Lechuck.
I'll use these in some TEST Squadron video intros.

We've had these discussions before. It's still too early to set things in stone. But as mentioned before there are threads on the topic. :p

As Adrian said, trust that our leadership will get it all ironed out.

I am going off of what is being displayed in this thread... So I am asking the question in this thread because the logo title's are not matching up with the divisional threads that I have seen. No one is doubting it will get done, but we are asking because it is logical to have questions in response to a new product. I'm will not be blindly led. If i have questions i'm going to ask.

Here I thought that the Test would have the militia as a part of Diplomacy.

Yeah, this seems to happen every single time the subject comes up. There are always more questions that anyone is able to really answer and it always comes back to simply not knowing how things will work in game and how things will settle within TEST once we can start applying division practices. Which is why I made the comment of not wanting to get too far ahead of ourselves in this arena.

I come from the background of planning and forecasting the unknown 2-4 years out and then having to react to the unforeseen. I completely understand not wanting to get ahead of ourselves. But, it's to easy to plan something as simple as the division and subdivisions and then make changes as necessary. I'm not talking about creating art work or anything, just simply projecting to help structure ourselves. When 2.0 goes live my intent is to try and start interacting with those that have like interests in the game. Having the subdivisions sketched in pencil would help with this.

Subdivisions are probably going to be established by members and recognized by leadership. Similar to how Rock Raiders got recognized by Montoya.

I think we should probably rename combat division to security or paramilitary or something else along those lines. I feel like combat is too restrictive and the combat division would probably do more things that don't directly result in combat, like patrolling. Also Combat division seems a lot more specific than the other divisions like leadership, media, exploration. all are very broad compared to combat which seems more narrow.

Edit: also things like bounty hunting and contract killing are combat, but those things would be in Black flag division right?

 

[Serious Table]

These logos are top notch, Krystal! Great work!

AwesomeDude, I honesty think you're putting a bit too much thought into the fact that a division is named "Combat". This is early, things will be further fleshed out as they evolve. You always start broad and general before you start to drill down.

Bounty hunting is legal, while contract killing can be either legal or illegal. So I wouldn't really class them as part of Black Flag.

Right. I don't want us to start out with too many divisions at the beginning. It's better to start with as few divisions as possible, and then expand on an as-needed basis.

For the people who dedicate their time to aiding the orgs endeavors, is there a plan to have a salary for the full-time people. Say someone is a full-time escort for test shipments, is there a plan to have them paid within the org or are we just going to use the job boards to do freelance work. I personally like the idea of a salary position to have my tali on standby ready to bring the pain wherever we need it.
