Fire Support Group are a group of like minded gamers who share a passion for Military Realism titles and the use of realistic tactics.
Formed in Spring 2009 under the title of European Strike Force - In July 2010 the original and core members decided that a new direction and focus was needed. So with a reshuffled team, a fresh start was made - relaunched as Fire Support Group.
Currently our focus is PR:BF2, but we also plan to embrace the highly anticipated Squad upon its release.
FSG is based around the belief that gaming should be fun and that there should be no pressure to perform. We decided that we wanted a casual atmosphere, but to still play professionally and to the best of our abilities.
No one screams at you if you get killed, or if you accidentally select the wrong kit. We would rather laugh it off than make someone feel uncomfortable playing what many people forget is just a game.
We don't copy real world standards of military ranks or practice for the sake of trying to create a virtual army experience and we do not consider ourselves to be a 'Hardcore Realism' clan. We do not expect our members to talk as though they are hardened war-veterans, address members as sir or talk down to new recruits as though they do not have a valid opinion. This kind of behaviour is far too excessive in a gaming clan, members join FSG for a common love of realistic gaming and to have fun and share the experience with like minded people.
When we play, our primary focus is as Infantry and Infantry support roles, including Mechanised support. We pride ourselves with knowing that although we might not always be leading the charge and we might not be Top Squad every single round - We were however one of the main reasons that the team was successful. Like a Shepherd with his flock, we stand back spot the weaknesses within a team and fill in the gaps to ensure that the team has the support it needs in order to complete the task in hand. Defeating the enemy.
We are highly capable at what we do, but we don't make any wild statements saying we are the best. We simply let our abilities speak for themselves. Modesty is key to our approach to gaming.
FSG strive to present a mature, professional and polished image to the wider community. Understated, yet powerful.
Our members come from throughout Europe, but primarily from Britain and Scandinavian countries such as Norway, Finland and Sweden.
The most important factor to know when considering joining FSG is that we aren't looking for someone to just fill a space in a squad. Fire Support Group more than just being a clan is a close-knit group of friends. Everyone in FSG is a member because they don't just want to be in a clan - they want the close camaraderie that few places offer. They aren't seen as a source of income, nor do they have to pay for access, they aren't member 459, they are themselves, and that is why they join FSG.
