History
CiA History
CiA was created on December 3, 1999 by Cobra, Chief2992,
BESTSWAT, Maj_Woody, SMOKEM and Fantom in earliest days of SWAT3.
We were the one of the first clans in SWAT3, Cause SWAT3 was released
the month before CiA was even created. We were a quite small clan
with no more than 12 members. Then in 2003 when we exploded with +30 members
and became the 2nd oldest and biggest clan in SWAT3. On Friday and Saturday
nights was our flood our all our members in the east lobby and count how many
members we had nights. Most of time we had more than half the lobby's player count.
2003 to 2005 was the golden era of CiA, We were one of the 2 major players in
SWAT3 and known was the clan that recruited anyone that wanted to join. We got some
disrespect about it and owned the crap out of the people that said it. In 2005 was
the year of new beginnings with CiA, cause SWAT4 was released. Everyone in the
SWAT3 CiA or not was excited with SWAT4, It had everything that the SWAT3 community
ever wanted in the next installment of the SWAT series. The in 2006 CiA had officially
hit 50 members mark, everyone in CiA was surprised reached that our goal. In early 2006
CiA had launched its first dot com website and got out of the free site and forums business
after many years using it for a clan site. Through 2007 CiA clan downsized in members and
droped a few a few projects and rewritened its code of conduct. In middle of 2007 the Battlefield
2 division was offically disbanded for inactivity after 2 years of greatness. In the early 2008
CiA clan rebuilt the leadership from the ground up. December of 2009 CiA celebrated its 10th
year anniversary with 13 active members.
