Our ancestors reached for a future without warfare, answering the call of General Aleksandr Kerensky, they dared to believe the spirit of the Star League could be saved in the hearts of the Star League Defence Force.”

At the beginning of Operation Exodus, in June 2784, a twist of fate threw the brave men and women of Zulu Regiment, 26th Royal BattleMech Division into a forgotten system on the border of the Terran Hegemony, the Federated Suns and the Draconis Combine. For the next 250 years their descendants built a future, surviving through their own Civil War, the path of their forging not unlike that of the Inner Sphere around them. In October 3039, 255 years after the Stranding, a chance discovery by an Explorer Corps vessel threw the Inner Sphere open to the lost Regiment.

The descendants of the Regiment emerged from their seclusion to discover the Terran Hegemony dissolved and the Great Houses of Davion, Steiner, Kurita, Marik and Liao locked in the last throws of the bitter War of ’39. The leading council of the Regiments home planet of Haven decided to form their military assets; a Battalion of Star League era BattleMechs, tanks, vehicles and infantry suits, into a Regiment once more. Learning all they could of the events of the last two and a half centuries they found a kindred spirit in several units, some holding to the ideal of the now dead and almost mythical Star League. Expanding and continuing the intensive training regime implemented after the Civil War, the SLDF based unit honed their fighting skills alongside and against the most illustrious House and mercenary units in the Inner Sphere.

Entering into contracts with most of the major Houses, the sight of the Regiments ‘Mechs on the battlefields of the Inner Sphere, with the emblem of a blazing phoenix and the legend “ZULU-6” emblazoned on the chest plating of each became a well-known and well feared sight. Over the next decade the unit tested the metal and the honour of each of the Houses, favouring the Houses of Davion and Steiner for the forward thinking and overall honesty of their leaders, Hanse Davion and Melissa Steiner-Davion

Now, a new storm gathers.

Something the House Lords of the Inner Sphere could not have foreseen.

The Phoenix Talons stand ready to face the trials; the legend of Zulu-6 is just beginning.




So as to enable the unit to be able to address rising contract needs, the Zulu-6 war council has opened new positions. Both seasoned veteran pilots as well as eager cadets are invited to post their candidacy.
Our current roster contains primarily EU based pilots and a rising number of US members. Members from accross the globe are welcome to join but we can at this point in time not guarantee full company or lance drops during their prime time.

Z6 - Zulu-6 "The Phoenix Talons" will offer you a relaxed environment to play MWO whilst not letting go of the competitive nature of the game. Most of our pilots are seasoned Mechwarrior pilots that are eagerly looking forward to community warfare and are non-stop training to this end.

We do demand respectful and honourable behaviour from all our members and commitment to our cause,... but primarily a willingness to go drop with us and have fun. There are no requirements on activity.

Feel free to check out our forums and recruitment page ask for our TS server and get a feel of how Z6 rolls!

And please check our recruitment message

I fell down to my knees begging the huge warmachine would turn around and move along the wide streets. I hoped the pilot of this walking tank could see me or even hear me and would stop. It didn't. The huge battlemech took another step forward without hesitation and burried our home beneath it's feet as if it was a blade of gras...

Zulu-6 are currently looking for new recruits to fill out open slots in our roster with an eye on organized BattleMech warfare in both the Inner Sphere Wars league (http://innerspherewa...u/category/mwo/) and Community Warfare in the future.

Even if you are completely new to MWO, fear not, we have a mix of grizzled MWO veterans and avid PC gamers from countries across the world but with the majority in the EU time zones. So we can quickly bring you up to speed on tactics, gunnery and the finer points of stompy robot warfare. Soon we will have you laying waste to all enemies (or at least blowing up with style).

Take a look at our forums (http://innerspherewa...u/category/mwo/) or PM PyckenZot, our recruitment officer.

The ground around the enemy Mech erupts in a flare of explosions, multiple hits rocking the machine violently as sixty long range missiles fall out of the sky. The raiders targeting systems may be more accurate but with that amount of munitions flying around, something is going to hit. Collins pushes out ahead of PUG, closing to within two hundred metres of the enemy Mech and eighteen short range missiles streak out of the launchers in the Atlas’s left torso, adding their destructive power to the barrage. Remarius whoops in celebration over the Lance's comm channel, as the enemy Mech goes down to one knee but the celebration call dies as the dust settles and the last fiery explosions flame out; the enemy machine shakily rising.

The Mech’s armour is pitted and scored in several places but the only visible, serious damage is that the left arm hangs limply and the missile pod on the same side appears to be malfunctioning; sparks and smoke erupting from shattered and bent armour plating where the pod meets the torso. The right arm swings into line with Collins’ Mech and the laser fires, followed by a PPC bolt and a spread of missiles from the undamaged pod. The missiles strike the big Mech all over its frontal armour, none managing to fully exploit any existing weakness but the streams of energy and highly charged particles lance into the head of the Atlas. Sparks and manmade lightning cascade around and away from the assault Mech, for an instance PUG believes the big machines heavy armour has deflected the attack. Then, almost in slow motion, it begins to topple backward and a few seconds later the war machine hits the ground with a sickening noise as tons of armour are crushed by the Mech’s own weight, the vibration rolling up and through the Highlander's legs to shake the command couch; smoke roils from the remains of the cockpit, a ragged gash torn in the infamous deaths head “face” of the Atlas.

“Remarius, Sixwolf nail him; go for the damaged side torso. Time to show him the gates of hell”

As PUG charges his Highlander forward, he lets rip with the three large lasers, melting chunks of armour away from the left torso, biting into the already damaged armour and with a huge eruption of sparks the missile pod explodes away from the Mech. A series of internal explosions follow, reloads for the weapon pod cooking off as the heat from the lasers pour through the torn armour plating. Following up with a gauss round and then another burst of lasers, PUG fires as fast as his weapons can recycle. The heat in the cockpit continues to rise as the weapons fire draws more and more energy from the fusion reactor and suddenly PUG come to his senses; realising that his mouth is completely dry and his vision is blurred. Lungs’ screaming in agony as the heat sears its way to his very core, he can feel the cooling vest doing its job to keep his core temperature at a safe level but his body is screaming for oxygen.

Pausing in his assault he lets the heat indicator slowly creep back down and watches as the enemy Mech again disappears in a veil of explosions, another wave of missiles converging on it; tearing at the armour damaged from his rage fuelled assault. The machine shudders violently and pitches backward, taking a series of jerky steps; the pilot fighting a damaged gyro and gravity to keep his machine on its feet. As it stumbles backward, PUG sees his chance; stalking the Highlander forward, he comes to within a few metres of the enemy Mech. Switching to an open broadband channel, he announces in a low, rage filled voice “This is for Collins, see you in hell”

As the Gauss round obliterates the cockpit of the enemy Mech, PUG opens a channel to the rest of the Company "Zulu-6 actual, this is Fox-6. We have taken care of that raider but we lost Collins, requesting recovery and salvage team to grid E6. Over"

"Negative on recovery PUG, we need you back here now! The planet is being invaded, those are no raiders........."

Join Zulu-6 and prepare for the Clan invasion, we are a friendly and mature, fun orientated team of MechWarrior veterans and PC gamers. Many of us playing MWO from early Closed Beta, we have picked up skills and tactics that can help to keep you in the fight and winning.

PM PyckenZot or check us out on http://www.z6-phoeni...forum/index.php. We have a dedicated TS3 channel for registered members and have organised drops most nights of the week.
