On another note:

With only six hours remaining until hot drops into their trials began, the twin Pentagon-class Dropships slowed their descent to one standard gravity, as warriors inspected their war-machines and oversaw the installation of combat drop-pods to allow their Mechs to enter gravity to their established drop zones.

Six different drop zones were established for the warriors and their Blood Officers to engage in their trials. Six drop zones for sixteen warriors, all ready to engage as soon as the plas- and ferro-steel carapaces would fall free from their Mechs moments before impact allowing them to fire their drop-jets one last time to prevent destruction on impact. Statistically, there was a significant possibility that one or more pilots would suffer some form of catastrophic failing in their equipment, but the leaders of the 173rd Hussars Cluster, the "Winged Vipers," understood that the vagaries of technology in warfare, the potential for luck, the fogs of war were all necessary variables that the Snakes had to face as part of their Trials.

While a waste to lose a warrior to such an ignominious end, it would serve as an object lesson to all of the other Snakes competing within their Trials.

Verses in the Rememberence will REMEMBER this night!

Diass, sight of a previous Smoke Adder incursion lay dusty and trampled under the feet of this newest incursion. As Dropships disgorged fiery meteorites of man-made ferrocrete and fusion engine, Mechwarriors landed in a foreign land with no knowledge of the trials they would face.

Moving to designated fighting positions, they heard the ominous words over their communications earpieces before they went dark with countermeasuring jamming to prevent them from communicating:

"Fangs out Adders.....You are weapons free!"

Tonight over the course of 5 synch drops, we conducted Trials of Position for twelve members successfully (several could not make it). If you are interested in a unit that adds the lore to the flavor and the challenge, is organized, has a good time and strives to be better in both casual and competitive play as we prepare for community warfare...you should consider Theta Galaxy.

Ten pilots will undergo their Trials of Position in our next night of fights.....followed by a Blood Officer Melee to determine who among our Blooded Warriors will take their place as one of the anonymous Blood Officers our Snakes face in the Trials.

Will you be one of them?!

SMOKE ADDERS!

Only 64 hours until thirty pilots collide in Trials of Position. Upwards of fifteen candidates will have the opportunity to earn their Blooded Warrior status within Theta Galaxy of the Adders.

Fangs Out Adders!

With the permission and IFF codes transmitted from the surface of the Hells Horses world of Niles finally received, the bullet-shaped ends "tops" of the Unijar and Mogoi rushed towards the planet with quite a few hours remaining before atmospheric entry. Once they hit the hard atmosphere, they would allow their mildly aerodynamic designs to bring them inside the planetary seam, before flipping end over end before reaching true gravity and placing its powerful thrusters "deck-down" to bring it into a glorified controlled fall towards the surface.

Landing in red-dust plans well away from the Clan Hells Horses population centers, Mechs would immediately begin to disembark while the Dropships would take the unusual step of damping down and going "cold" with their incredible fusion drives, to ensure the CHH forces on planet they were in fact there for an approved Trial of Position, and not secretly landing a raid force in some kind of dishonorable attack. With their drives disabled and gone cold, the Dropships would be under powered and largely incapable of offensive action, which would be confirmed by CHH satellites and aerospace fights who would keep a respectful distance, but a careful eye on the Adders.

A special cadre of anonymous Blood Officers would emerge from the hulls of Unijar, with training cadre and candidates known as Snakes emerging several kilometers away from the downed Mogoi.

From there, the battles would commence, one at a time, over an area of dozens of kilometers, each warrior stalking their prey and emerging Blooded and victorious, or victims themselves.

As the smoke settled on the red dust of the plains outside of Niles' lone spaceport, thirty bedraggled warriors trundled their broken and beaten Mechs into the dropships Unijar and Mogoi to receive immediate attention from Technicians and other support castes.

Eight candidates from the two sibko's managed to survive their Trials, with two earning Blooded Warrior status. Six would live to fight another day. None had earned higher ranking, but all had bloodied their fangs and spit venom in the eyes of their opponents, with honor afforded each.

With thirty two trials of position conducted (and people say synch dropping is too problematic, hah!), Theta Galaxy is now beginning Blood Officer trials to determine who among our number will become the next generation of anonymous gatekeepers our Snakes must face in future Trials!
