At the heart of Clan Wars are Clan Leaders, dedicated players who keep it all together. However, if you want to organize your own clan for the first time, then we’ll walk you through the process, which isn’t difficult at all. In order to create a clan, you will need to have a Premium Munzee membership, which you can purchase at anytime via the Freeze Tag Online Store.
Though the player who creates the clan will be assigned as the Leader, Leaders can then promote other members to help manage the clan. Anyone can be promoted to Leader, even players who don’t have a Premium Membership. When creating a clan, keep in mind that there are two main clan types: Casual Clans and Level 1 to 5 clans. Casual clans do not have a specific level goal and may focus on just having fun, learning the game together, and playing with family and friends. On the other hand, level 1 to 5 clans aim for a specific level.
The following information will walk you through the different aspects of the clan creation process.
Setting Clan Image, Name & Tagline
Under this section you have the opportunity to create a unique name and upload a custom image to represent your clan.
Square images work best, but the app will allow you to crop the photo if necessary. The tagline can be a short, fun motto and/or can be a useful tool for you to find specific types of players. For example, if you’re looking to find more local players in Texas, you could include the word “Texas” or letters “TX” in the tagline, so that when players use the Clan finder to search for either, your clan will pop up in the list for them. Putting the city or state in your tagline will assist in recruiting more local players if that is something you desire.
Choosing Clan Level Goal
Players who are using the app to search for a clan can sort by level goal so they can find the right type of clan for the time and effort they are able to commit. Clan Leaders can specify what level the group is aiming for.
Since there are individual challenges that require each member of the clan to complete specific tasks for Clan Wars before the clan can advance in a battle, clans are only as strong as their weakest link. That’s why it’s important to make sure that all members of your clan have the same monthly goal in mind so that players are not left disappointed.
Clan Level Goal vs Current Level
The selected clan level goal will appear on the Roster tab in the colored box for everyone to see, as a reminder of what the clan is aiming to achieve. As your clan levels up during battle, you will earn a border that appears around your clan image.
All clans will start the battle at Level 0 without any border. Every level after that will have borders with stars that indicate the level number. For example, five stars would indicate that the clan is Level 5.
Choosing Clan Privacy
Now that players are able to use the app to search for clans to join, Clan Leaders are able to choose a privacy setting that gives them more control over how that process is handled. If a clan is set to public, anyone can join at anytime. If a clan is set to private, anyone can find the clan, but can only send a request to join, which must be approved by a Clan Leader. If a clan is set to hidden, the clan will not appear in any search lists. The only way for players to join a hidden clan is to be invited by a Clan Leader.
When you’re ready, tap on “Create” to publish your new clan. You may edit any of the clan information at anytime from the Roster tab by using the menu in the top right corner.
