house liao seems to specialize in sneakiness. this isn't a put down or anything but most of the techs and mech they develop (and re-develop from the star league) seem to trend that way, Ravens, cloaking armor, ECM, beagle probe, Arrow IV artillery, even the plasma cannon has indirect aspects with adding heat. they have a problem with good front line units though, which is why they are the smallest but the sneakiness is why there still around. FUN FACT: after they lost all their heavy and assult mech factories they developed the cataphract out of whatever spare parts they had. the cataphract was originally a frankenmech built by liao, cheers!

Ok, so some things.

The Liao mechs in the game are:
  • Raven
  • Blackjack
  • Cataphract
  • Victor
The allies of the Capellan Confederation are:
  • House Kurita
  • House Marik, to a lesser extent.
The enemies of the Confederation are:
  • House Davion, our most hated enemy.
  • House Steiner, because they threw in with Davion.
  • Free Rasalhague, because they rebelled against our ally. Really they are simply discounted as Kuritan rebels and not given much thought.
  • All the clans.
If you are interested in joining a fiercely loyal and competent House Company, get ahold of me here and check out our company website. We're going into open recruitment soon, but we have nabbed a few skilled mechwarriors online so far.

Let's see...you had "Mad Max" Liao, who thought he was a god and insisted on being called "Celestial Wisdom". You had his wife, Elizabeth, who was banging his most important General under his nose. You had his son, who was something of a mystic poof. There's his daughter, Candace, who decided she'd be better off allied with Davion. You have his other daughter, Romano, who's ******* crazy and his heir; she found out about her mother and the General, and killed her mother and sent an assassin after General Ridzik, and singlehandedly provoked the 4th Sucession War by attempting to assassinate Quintus Allard. You have her son by her spymaster, who acts like he's crazy just to protect himself from his mother, and her daughter, who thinks she's the reincarnation of a Hindi death goddess.

Yeah, good luck with that.



That is not what provoked the Fourth Succession War. It was Hanse Davion on his wedding day to Melissa Steiner, summed up in this post.

Romano Liao is our Chancellor now, and a worthy successor to the Celestial Wisdom.

We're special because we bump this thread to no end. Also, anyone with a name Sun Tzu adds +100 to faction e-peen. I know you're jelous Davies.

I can answer that in a few words. "Love for her people and never giving up!"

You know....sooner of later, in PGI will probably have a server in China - they'll have to. There's too much money to make there for them not to. NOW, if say, just 1 percent of that population are into games and if 1% of that 1% decide to play MechWarrior Online, which house do you think they'll join? (Hint: it'll be Liao) I feel sorry for the rest of the other houses. I really do, to be so vastly outnumbered and outskilled... :angry: :) :angry:

Because they have no where to go but up. TPTB won't kill them off, and they are so far down in the toilet that the only place they can go is up.

On the other hand, if they keep screwing around with the Andurians I will do my leave best to see that they stagnate out of existance.

Only thing anybody needs to know about Liao is that they are the North Korea of the Innersphere. :)
