Long, angular flanks earmarked the beast. Barely reflecting sources of light back into the void, the Adder Warship Hegemony emerged back from the nothing that exists between points in space during transit, the electromagnetic pulse radiating from its arrival for millions of kilometers around it. Like it's sister Nightlord class warship, Absolute Truth which had stayed behind at Strana Mechty Hegemony serves as the vanguard for something greater that simple conflict, conquest or war. It brings, per its namesake, domination.

Four Pentagon class dropships rest under armored cowls, barely visible at even the closest approaches to the vessel, not that any ship would risk such a visitation, recognizing well the dim icon of a serpent coming forth from mists as old as time.

Bathed in the dusts of the void in this new system, warmed a micron at a time by the distant rays of the system's star, the Smoke Adders have arrived.

=====================================================================

SmokeAdders.com

The Smoke Adders (Theta Galaxy of Clan Star Adder) are now invading a variety of locations in FP and continuing to expand our competitive sides.

We value a team-play approach that welcomes disciplined initiative, and tactical patience but aggressive play style. We seek players with the drive to win, to learn as part of the unit and to have a good time. Whether you are interested in casual stompy robots, competitive play, a bit of lore-related fluff or some combination, we have a role for you within our Touman.

If you are interested in a TEAM that:
  • has no mandatory events
  • maintains facets of the Clan-canon such as Trials of Position, Zelbrigen duels, Grand Melee, Trials of Bloodright and other Clan style events that folks can choose to participate in or skip
  • believes that highly organized, synergistic game play is the most important aspect of winning
  • can embrace the fun of casual play and then turn on a dime to conduct 8 or 12-man competitive play
  • runs dedicated practices and scrimmages against other units both to prep for competitive play and to just have fun
Then we might be the organization you are looking for.

We organize in three Clusters (per the lore), with folks volunteering for the environment that best suits their available time, interest levels, competitive interests and skill levels:

502nd "Strike Dragoons" Cluster - primarily casual players, time limited players, folks just interested in the BT franchise, or shooting mechs up.

505th "Silent Death" Assault Cluster - for players with a more competitive streak, who are very team oriented and want to regularly compete in more organized events.

373rd "Winged Vipers" Cluster - for the resident "try-hards" of our unit, this Cluster can be applied for but has additional expectations (skill level, commitment to practices etc.)

All of our pilots participate in FP when they choose to do so and we have dedicated leaders who promote that portion of the game by leading DROPDECs, an aspect of the game we intend to return to with our previous gusto!

We have players involved in the:
  • Proxis planetary league
  • PGI 100k World Championship
  • MRBC (where we intend to field two teams, one in a lower division to allow folks to be introduced to competitive play against appropriately skilled opponents)
  • and will be re-joining NBT once it returns to league play.
We operate on the 512-person TS Clan-Hub server, and whether you are looking to apply, just looking for some drop-mates or just want a place to host your own unit, all are welcome to come by.

Fighting multiple matches tonight on Twitch as part of the WC.

More to come in season 8 of MRBC.

Whether you are competitive, casual or somewhere in between, there are a ton of planets to raid. We have a role for you.

20 attended, 17 competed, 8 remain in the bracket rounds.

Those remaining in the hunting rounds:

Cyphersphere faces Adrenahawk
Madcat faces AndiNagasia
MrBigmechs faces Kuroidoragon
Wingbreaker faces Anubism198

As the hunter, a pilot will select the weight class. The hunted pilot will choose the map and a weapons group restriction.

Each will face the other in a single contest, the winner moving on in the bracket, the loser facing the anonymity of carrying no Bloodname until they are offered another opportunity.

Great bunch of guys, not an apply and instantly join kind of unit. They take their time to get to know you and have a process all members go through, as explained on the website. Though we are currently an merc unit, we follow and practice many clan tenants. Overall a very fun and refreshing way to approach the MWO universe in it's current state.

Tonight, another WC match (one of our last four) as we strive to solidify our position in the top 10 of the qualifying round.

Additionally, a Faction Warfare effort led by one our old-hands and later in the week a Trial of Position opens up for several worthy candidates.

All of this while we prep for MRBC Season 8 where we hope to field an upper division, and lower division team (the latter so our newer, more casually oriented players can try their hand in competitive play at a reasonable level of competition)!

Looks like the 10th or 11th we will be streaming our quarter, semi and final bracket matches of the Trial of Bloodname as 8 warriors move forward in the hunter and hunted rounds!

Practice tonight to get warmed up for our final two WC matches and to welcome some new friends (both Adders and non-Adders) to the party. 9pm EST if you are looking for a group!

Conducting a Trial of Position for worthy Mechwarriors who will attempt to earn their Blooded status within the Clan, this Sunday at 830pm EST followed by a practice for our two MRBC teams (one of our core competitive group and one of of casual and first time competitive players trying the tournament for the first time).

We remain on the lookout for capable pilots looking for competitive, faction warfare or just a soild group experience. We conduct lore related events like the Trials of Position and Bloodname (the next round of the latter being held the 10th and 11th).

If you are looking for a unit that plays to win, while enjoying the game for all of its flaws, and believes that being a decent sport isnt mutually exclusive from kicking *** and having fun, we might be the unit for you.

Smoke Adders are specifically looking for players interested in Faction play and for those interested in comp play who may have not yet taken the plunge into tournaments like the highly regarded MRBC (the current gold standard for competitive tourney play in MWO). Our entry-level team slated for Division E needs a small number of capable, interested pilots, looking to cut their teeth in the 5-match format of the MRBC league.

Tonight Hunters and the Hunted of our first bracket round for the Trial of Bloodname compete to advance. One pilot chooses weight class, one pilot chooses a weapon restriction and the map!

Tomorrow Trials of Position for worth members, followed by dedicated practices for our MRBC teams.

And of course, a litte faction warfare in between so folks can earn event-related loot this weekend!

Our Final MWOWC match comes this Thursday the 22nd where we'll attempt to maintain our top 10 standing in a match versus Chaos Within (aka the 12th Bear Guards)!

Additionally, practices and group matches focused on testing out new mechs for MRBC Season 8 continue, as we solidify our DIV C and E teams! We're looking for a handful of committed pilots to fill out those rosters.

Lastly, Wednesday nights remain our Community Warfare nights and Sundays have the Trial of Position for newly voted in members and this week we close out the quarter finals of our Trial of Bloodname.
