Prelude To The Competition
With these criterias, many countries rapidly began recruiting to fill these spots. Each team was given 15 members and no reserve. 5 members for the Combat Team, 5 Members for the Tradeskill Team, and 5 members for the Technical Team.
To fill these slots, the various countries went all-out in their recruitment. Those lower class members of Umbra were sometimes peacefully recruited and sometimes forcefully.
But as one climbed the hierarchy of the guild, the methods softened greatly, even for the violent countries as they knew that they couldn't afford to offend these young ancestors who basically decided the flow of the game when the main two were not around.
The AI gave team creation and management to selected Representatives of each country verified by the World Council. These representatives would then send invites to the players who had been recruited externally and they would join the team.
