The guy that taught me how to play tabletop is a lifelong Davion. We came to MWO together and founded a unit.

I started reading the novels (Sword and Dagger) and the Davions seemed the only .. non-stupid .. House. After buying the MechWarrior rulebook and reading the Davions were pretty much based off feudal England I was sold. Other than a brief dalliance with Marik in a RPG campaign as a merc I have been playing as Davion for 20 odd years (barring a break when the Clans arrived and I lost interest), I'm not going to stop now just because internet ironies has decided that Davion are too squeaky clean (thanks a bunch Stackpole) for te kool kidz.

Edit: Just to clarify, Battletech never took off in England as it did in the US, so the filtering of rulebooks over here was slower and quite hard to find for awhile.

That is what the Internet is for (but, yeah, not 20 years ago).
