Purvo 7 News for 25/5/3050

The Voice of the Chancellor. From Sian to the Fringe of Capellan Space.

"Faction Roulette" Not a Good Bet

MAY 25th, 3050 -- "Faction Roulette," and the dishonorable practice of flying in the face of Loyalty by being Mercinaries with the game's substandard method of petitioning 'Merc contracts leading to an unrealistic gaming experience where even the money based loyalty of mercenaries cannot be trusted.

The loyalties of the Gatekeepers is, however, unfaltering. Not content with the slapdash system that pays no attention to loyalty, or continuity of the BattleTech universe. The Gatekeepers are unwilling to play the game of Roulette, picking a new faction each week based on little more than a whim thanks to the non-existent system of bidding for mercenary contracts, that our ComStar carrier, Pig has (failed to) implement.

Instead of following this trend, that reduces CW and the battle for the Sphere to little more than a pedantic mess. [HLGK], true to it's namesake, will always be steadfastly the Vanguard of House Liao.

Disaster Strikes at Ricky Raygun Performance

FRIDAY, MAY 22ND, 3050 -- The crowd on Vientiane was whipped into a frenzy Friday night, after an impassioned verse of "The Chancellor Wears No Clothes" that did not appear on their Maskirovka-approved setlist, featured lyrics in which Ricky brought himself under suspicion of being a sympathizer to the much reviled Candace Liao, biological sister to Her Celestial Wisdom, Romano Liao

As Ricky Raygun was carted off stage by Maskirovka Agents to an undisclosed location, this reporter was able to get backstage for a one-on-four exclusive with the Bombshells.

"We had no idea Ricky was gonna sing that," Said Roxy Raygun between sobs, "We just kept dancing."

Members of the Chancellor's Hand declined to comment further on Ricky's song, or his ultimate fate. A Bombshell by the name [REDACTED] was taken away also under suspicion of being a supposed St. Ives terrorist.

Gatekeepers' Recruitment Drive Underway

MAY 25th, 3050 -- The Recruitment Drive to enlist new blood for the battalion is well underway, bringing new MechWarriors by the week looking to be among the newest batch of rookies recruited into the Gatekeepers ranks.

Are you interested in being the newest Sao-Wei of the Gatekeepers battalion? Join us in a truly immersive BattleTech Experience. Message me, the Zhong Shao Zvolimir the Blackhand, our recruitment Officer, Sang-Wei TG Cid, or any Officer of the Gatekeepers battalion to apply.

Deployment of Cataphract-OXP Exceeding Performance Expectations

MAY, 3050 -- Following a rigorous testing phase the Gatekeepers still deem the new Cataphract-OXP an overwhelming success, in ability to protect it’s team, it’s ability to roll out more damage than it takes, and its ability to do all of this while providing sustained Electronic Warfare coverage.

Unit specialists have spent the recent days tirelessly taking this 'Mech to task, but cannot find a weak link in this behemoth's armor. The workhouse of the Capellan army, made deadlier by the engineers at Hellespont Industrials. Good work, men. I'm sure this is a welcome addition to many Inner Sphere 'Mechbays.

Gatekeepers Recovering After Stay at Clinic -- Failing One

MAY, 3050 -- After a prolonged, and somewhat terrible therapy period to mitigate the ill effects of Post Tukayyid Stress Disorder, the Gatekeepers have returned to Active Duty in the Capellan fringe. The citizens living on the outskirts of the Confederation can rest a little easier knowing the Liao Cháng-Chéng is back in effect.

On a related, and unfortunate note, one Gatekeeper named [REDACTED] who we reported had been lobotomized as of last week in an effort to return him to the battlefield, was killed in the line of duty when a rage overtook him, causing him to fly into a delirium-filled rage. The onset of which led him to fire on his own lance before firing on civilian buildings, leveling them with laser fire, until his reactor went critical.

Today's announcement puts a lot of what McCarron had to say about us in the past in perspective.

I cannot really say any more other than I am filled with loathing at the vindication.

Admittedly, poor performance for myself. That was a really bad game of faceroll. Only one cheater in her pic, though.

Why not? Where were those good people when she trolled against a Liao loyalist unit? 将听吾计,用之必胜,留之。将不听吾计,用之必败,去之 - but if unit leaders do not remove such a member themselves maybe PGI will!

Edited - I stand corrected, the unit the said person came from is merely a merc company in long employment under the great House Liao under the current MWO timeline.

Seriously? Why not? when she went out of her way to attack us on the forums, in game, almost in person: yet the "Great and Mighty" 4TCR would back her up because she was such a "good player"

Do you even read through her post? I've known most of 4TCR for over 2 years, yet her attitude was the only reason I would not join their unit. Now, I'm a better person because of it.

Best wait for Ork to explain what happened if he can dig out the truth.
Two 4TCR members being banned at the same time makes me wonder whether they are the same person.

We have it on good authority that they are not, in fact, the same person.

Yeah,
Never thought she was cheating myself, but apparently was. It's a bit gratifying to know that while she was complaining about others not scoring well, that she was using a cheat.

Bah, Purvo 7 news is as biased as all the other news channels! Almost every story Purvo 7 runs has something to do with, "freeing oppressed peoples from the Davion sword."
Here's a news story on flood victims, its Davion's fault!
Here's a news story on poor people struggling to get a job, its Davion's fault!
Here's a story on homeless stray cats, its Davion's fault!

Can any of the mainstream news networks report something straight? ;) :P

For a pilot who fights, that match she sat in the back field the whole time. So that is not representative of the whole of her time in MWO.

Straight talk? How would the Maskirovka make their money?

Thanks for showing what a naturally talented and unassisted pilot can consistently score. This only reinforces the skullduggery undertaken by the said person to 'scrub' and 'normalize' their assisted scores to look outstanding but not über talented.
