Konnichi-wa bushi,

The 9th Sword of the Dragon is now operational. We are a Kuritan based unit that has played since the beginning of Multiplayer Battletech: Solaris, back in the mid-90s. You can find our website and more information at:
http://9thsword.org

Feel free to stop by and say hello. If you are looking to join our ranks, please read our Rules and Regulations, as well as the Unit FAQ. If you have questions you can ask me directly or post them on the forums. If not, fill out our Application and we we will get back to you.

We look forward to stepping on the battlefield and defending Kuritan space.

Also, a huge thanks to Hayden for designing our new decal for MWO. Anyone who has done photoshop work for me knows what a pain that can be. Also to Milo for helping me with the image on the front page.

If we go merc, it will ONLY be because the game has forced us to do so in order to maintain our command structure. If / When they put in player-made faction units, that will be our first choice. We are a house unit by name, not mercs.

It's good to be back in this old uniform. Glad to see a lot of old names on these forums.

Hmmm, this sounds like a good unit, and id love the chance to join, but before i would even apply i have to make sure my comp can even run the game well... A poor soldier i would be if i joined a regiment only to find i was unable to fight for it!!

As do I, Hayden did a very good job with it, I could not have possibly come up with that design on my own. I only wish I had a place to put it on our front page, but such is the luck.

Hmmmm....cant you just lay it down as the backdrop to the text and other images...? Not a web designer here so no idea but sounds good in theory...;)

Several people are reporting white screens when filling out Applications, and they aren't going through. I am working on the problem, but I am unable to duplicate the issue so it will take a little time for me to figure it out.

If you are having this issue, for now I recommend switching to another browser and see if that helps. I will fix it asap in any case.

The 9th has recruited several people but are still looking for more. Though we are looking for people in the US timezones, we are also looking to fill a company of those in the GMT+9 timezone and around there, if you are interested.

I have applied online however when the information was sent it 'white screened' so not sure if the application went through or not. I am US CST and look forward to fighting with the 9th, if accepted, or dread if not.
