UEFA Champions League

UEFA Champions League is the last and will be the final crew founded and leading by Gulfstream on the Sage Ocean, currently named Emerald after merging with Hunter. The crew is based on military approach and methods defining the organization structure, procedures and aims, so all hardcore puzzlers, explorers and battling pirates will be warm welcomed in the league.

"UEFA ? > the Unique Entertainment of the Fighting Addiction <" because everyone knows that the captain is hopelessly addicted to PvP. However the crew has ambitions to reach more Europeans and fans of the greatest game - football (soccer), and introduce them the world of Puzzle Pirates. The crew is UEFA Champions League's FAN CLUB, so, choose your favorite Club or player as your alt pirate's name and join them!

History
The crew originally was in the flag Brutal Fate, but in the middle of April in the year 2011, they went to Olympian Armada as act of the captain's ultimate loyalty to Tabath and as a sign for all rebel crews and flags that together they could bring down the old rulers of Sage. Six months later the captain found himself 'useless prince' in OA and the crew went back to Brutal Fate.


 * On June 12, 2013 Gulfstream merged the crew into Glimmer of Light in order of his planned absence.


 * On August 13, 2013 Gulfstream reestablished the crew name, starting the SECOND 'UEFA' AGE - 'Unfair Effectiveness + Fearless Advantage = League of Champions'
