Can we do some of the Sourcebook battles, Like Luthien? Basically something form the old sourcebooks, that pitted clans vs is, or even clans vs clans, Flacon Wolf refusal also comes to mind.

Also, Battles of Wolcott, Twycross, and Turtle Bay.

Tukayyid style events with less grind and rewards for highest win percentage for units.

More organized events that require units to register for a battle over specific provinces or match ups, like the Great Refusal. Allow the top ranked IS units to match up against top ranked clan units, for each faction. Top 5 units of each clan faction and top 4 units of each IS faction. This will encourage a greatr population and skill balance between factions as well.

If we're going to do a one for one timeline, events like this would be great. I think I was wrong about the Wolf Dragoon Conference which was 3051? But Luthien and other big battles would work well in CW.

THese fights should be as long a Tukyyaid was, and offer the exact same rewards pacakages, Maybe slightly less of a bone killing grind though. The mech should match the factions that were the primary antagonists of the battle. Example is if they did Luthien, it should be Kurita mechs; Panther, Crab, Dragon, Mauler, etc vs Jaguar mechs Arctic Cheetah, StormCrow, Ebon Jaguar, Warhawk, etc.. (faction lists from Sarna.net). Wolcott would be Kurita/Jaguars, Coventry, Steiner/Falcons, Twycross Steiner/Falcons, etc...

It would be great to see more battleweeks like the tukkayyid event...

I would see one for every Clan FRR VS Wolf on Rasalhaague (if FRR looses Capital should bee moved to Orestes like in the books), GB vs Kurita (maybee Alshain but it is now in Smokejaguar hands), SJ vs Kurita (Wolcott), Falcons VS Steiner (Twycross)

every event should bee with a leaderboard for units only like Tukayyid.

Rather than mechs having to match maybe there should be a special additional reward if you use those mechs, and specifically the paid variants. Anyone using any mech can get a small award but using those special mechs gives them the chance for a moderate/large reward.

All great ideas! PGI hope you are reading this!

Do they really read the forums?

The Battle of Luthien, featuring both wave 3 mechs and House Kurita designs in CW would be much more satisfying than the current Blood Pact event rewards for purchasing packages. I'd be much more likely to buy mechs for a particular faction than random collections for a random reward.

I find that events with no connection to the universe fiction feel uninspiring. The Battle of Luthien could be amazing, if players were rewarded for fielding appropriate Mechs and rewarded with faction items and bonuses for victories.

This is a really excellent idea! I hope that PGI is paying attention to this thread.
