Right As Reign were born on The 31st of March 2005. The clan was formed initially to play Halo 2. Right As Reign played their first clan match on the 27th of April, we lost (badly!) but the clan was coming together nicely with the launch of the website and forums. New members were joining the Right As Reign ride in great number as the team grew and we even won a few matches!Other games played on the original Xbox were Rainbow Six 3 & Black Arrow, the Ghost Recon series and Battlefield 2:Modern Combat, none of these games managed to displace the mighty Halo 2 as the clans main concern.
The year 2006 saw the clan adopt the Xbox 360 as the gaming machine of choice, a logical Progression for an Xbox based clan. Initially there were very few games that caught the clans imagination. Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter was dabbled with as was Splinter Cell:Double Agent. November 2006 brought about two games that were to define the clan in one way or another, they were Rainbow Six Vegas and Gears of War. Both games were played competitively at a high level before the Gears of War team decided to leave and form another clan amidst much animosity. Despite the troubles the clan continued playing Rainbow Six and remained highly competitive getting to the semi finals of the Matchbox 360 Rainbow Six Tournament and the Quarter finals of the X360 Magazine Rainbow tournament (getting knocked out by xPlicit Projex who were later removed from the competition due do repeated allegations of cheating). We also played in the official Ubisoft Attack and Defend League finishing 4th out of 12 which we were delighted with as it was a game mode we didn't really play that much! Rainbow Six also took us to Game Battles where we always featured in the upper reaches of the league tables.
The Next BIG game to come our way was Call of Duty 4:Modern Warfare where once again Right As Reign were synonymous with the upper reaches of the Game Battles league tables. We continued with MW2 until Rainbow Six Vegas 2 was released, this was the sequel to the game where Right As Reign had forged the reputation for being one Europes premier clans with a competitive but friendly attitude. We felt duty bound to continue where we had left off with the games prequel and retook our customary position in the higher reaches of the Game Battles ladders (Ranked 14th in Europe at the end of the last competitive season).
Right As Reign have been somewhat inactive over the past few years but are ready to rise phoenix like and reclaim their hard fought position as one of the Uks premier Xbox Live Clans.
2011 has brought about Twitter integration as part of an ongoing quest to reestablish the name and mark Right As Reign as more than just another clan but as a gaming collective. Should you wish to get in on the action please visit the recruitment page.
2012 is now upon us and the resurrection never quite happened last year... We really must try harder in 2012.
