The Blackstone Knights are willing to consider veteran level players for entrance to our unit. We are accepting both North American and European pilots.





We are the top veteran pilots that split off from several units including the Blazing Aces to build a unit capable of competing at the highest levels.




-Pilots interested in the competitive side of MWO
-Maturity, 18+.
-Team players willing and capable of learning from others. If you can't take advice, we're not interested.
-Veteran pilots.
-"No drama" attitude.




Proxis - http://proxis.midgardmc.eu/mwo/
Marik Civil War: http://housemarik.enjin.com/campaign

We anticipate joining other leagues as time and manpower permit.




Apply using the Recruitment Page: http://blackstonekni...application.php

New applicants will have their applications reviewed by our recruiting officer. If we deem the application fits with what we are looking for, we will offer an interview with the pilots followed by a battlefield evaluation. If the pilot passes both, we will offer a position as a Squire in the unit.




We are an elite unit of pilots from many different units and backgrounds but united in the goal of playing at competitive levels with the other top tier teams. Our philosophy is win first, and we hold ourselves and our pilots to high standards of professionalism and skill. Our core group of pilots have fought together for some time and we enjoy the camaraderie and banter than comes with the formation of elite teams.

We do not tolerate smack talking, poor sportsmanship or jerks and hold ourselves to impeccable battlefield behavior. However, we will take every opportunity to defeat the enemy on the field and have no objections to shooting 'Mechs in the back, legs or heads, if the chance arises. Despite our winning first attitude, we do not tolerate cheaters or those who exploit known bugs for an advantage.

Pilots looking to join the Knights should be able to commit time to the game, although we do understand real life comes first. We expect pilots to show for practices when available as integration and meshing with our elite teams is necessary to be effective on the field. We want to be able to anticipate the orders of drop commanders and the movements of our allies which requires time playing together.

We do not tolerate internal or external drama.




We have two units currently, a North American team and a European team. As we expand we will operate with additional subunits that will train and fight together in leagues.

Knight Colonel - Commanding Officer
Knight Commanders - Executive Officers
Knight Captains - Field Officers
Knight Sergeants - Veteran level NCOs
Knights - Veteran competitive level members
Sergeants - Members in training for competition
Squires - New members under probation for training

This is a great unit that has to be one of the top ranked teams in MWO. Well organized and has the best dro commander in the game. Good luck to who ever tries out. Fun bunch of guys!

We've seen these guys in game, nice colour scheme and coherency, really makes them stand out against the rabble.

Great group of people and excellent players. Application has been submitted.

[Palmtree]

Had some fun running 8 mans last night. Tons of fun with an outstanding group of pilots/guys. We're still looking so if you think that we might be what you are looking for check out our website and throw in an application.

We run our 8-mans Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday competitively, and run more casual 8-mans on our off days.

[t0ast]

We've got the skills, the experience, and the fun to make for a great, competitive group. That said, we could always use more pilots with similar attitude and talents, so if you think you've got what it takes, apply today!

Excellent Proxis drop tonight. We were rolling two 8-man teams before the match. This is exactly the kind of size and activity we are aiming for.

Free bump, played against you guys about a week ago, good games!

[Sir Trent Howell]

Thanks for the bump Saxie. Always a pleasure to battle the Kell Hounds.

We are still accepting veteran pilots.

The Marik Gunfighter Alliance had dropped against these guys. Good folk and great sportsmanship. The games had been close, and they run a very tight ship over there. We fully endorse these guys.

Again, the Alliance is ready for more drops against you, if only for the fun chatter we had in the past.

You keep us on our toes that is for sure and I believe we will be facing each other on Sunday. I would say good luck but I really dont mean it.

Copy that. Let's make it a good game, and afterwords, regardless who wins, come on by our Gunfighter Saloon for a few drinks on the house. We brew the best whiskey in the Inner Sphere.

[RabbidFerret]

Last night we completed 3 successful Marik Civil War drops ending in a 3-0 sweep. After that, we broke into two 8 mans for some extra practice. I logged at 12:30am with 18 pilots still online out of an active roster of just over 30.

We plan to continue expanding while also keeping this kind of activity levels. No dead weight here!

[Palmtree]

Great videos in the second post. Both really show what we do as a team and how we like to play the game. If this looks to be up your alley fill out an application.

There's something magical about the sight of 5 Jenners stripping apart assault mechs.
