Guilds are Live in Common Ground World

Guilds are Live in Common Ground World

Read the Common Ground World Litepaper

The wait is over! The Common Ground World team is thrilled to announce the official launch of Guilds, a game-changer set to transform your gameplay in Gala’s flagship game of town and city builders.

We invite all players to join a Guild today to unlock new levels of collaborative strategy and new reward opportunities.

Manage Your Own Guild

You will be able to create a Common Ground World Guild in any Game Mode by selecting a Common Ground World Node Workload NFT (previously known as Town Star Node) that you own in your Gala Inventory. Note that the Guild will be linked to the Node NFT so transferring it will also transfer leadership of the Guild itself!

Your Guild will feature a unique name and a Guild Icon of your choice. A Level 1* Guild will hold up to 20 Members including the Guild Leader and 20 Library Slots!

*Guild Levels are part of the Upgradable NFTs feature coming up later in 2024.

You can invite Guild Members by searching for their Gala Username in the search bar within the Guild Invite Menu. They will receive an invitation they can Accept or Reject!

Guild participation is not required to enjoy the game, but it opens up a world of new possibilities. By running a Guild, you can lend your friends a helping hand by letting them use NFTs that you’ve added to your Guild Library!

Join a Guild

If you’d rather just join a Guild, you will need an Invitation from a Guild Leader. After accepting, you’ll gain access to the Guild’s Library of NFTs that your Guild Leader has shared, which means you can check out the NFTs you need to maximize your role in the current build, contributing to your Guild’s winning strategy to take home the prizes!

You can leave a Guild anytime, but if you want to join a new one you must wait 24 hours!

Guild Roles

Guilds feature three Roles for members:

The Guild Leader is the owner of the Common Ground World Node Workload NFT that created the Guild. As the head of the team, the Leader can invite, kick or promote Guild Members, and set up NFTs for check out in the Guild NFT Library. The Leader can also Force Return an NFT checked out by a Member.

Guild Officers are trusted members of the Guild. They can kick or promote members to Officers as well! Of course, they can check out shared NFTs from the Library too!

Guild members are the cornerstone of your Guild, the devoted team who can check out the Guild’s shared NFTs from the Library for use in Competitions to bring victory and honor to your Guild! You don’t need a Node NFT to join a Guild, just an Invitation!

Manage Your Guild’s NFT Library

If you own a Common Ground World Node Workload NFT, you can set up a Guild of your own! As a Guild Leader, you have the power to curate your Guild’s NFT Library. Players can “check out” NFTs from this Library to use in both competitive Guild events and solo events, maximizing their potential and strategy. This new system adds new layers of cooperation and strategic planning that will enrich the already challenging competitive gameplay of Common Ground World. As of the first version of Guilds, only NFTs that can be placed in the in-game grid (Buildings, basically) can be set in the Library. Each NFT set in your Guild Library can be checked out only once at a time, but each member can check out more than one NFT at a time.

The First Ever Guild Competition

In honor of this exciting update, we are kicking off the first-ever Common Ground World Guild competition next week as part of CGW’s May Mayhem events! This competition will provide a fantastic opportunity for Guilds to showcase their strategic prowess and teamwork. We expect serious Guild contenders to rise to the top and show us what we can accomplish in Common Ground World when we work together!

More details about the competition are coming soon, so don’t miss this week’s Common Ground World Town Hall, Friday morning at 8am PT!

If you own a Common Ground World Node Workload NFT, now is the time to prepare your Guild and start recruiting players who have the potential to outbuild and outsmart the competition.
