here's my take - the Clans are evil, but some are less evil than others, and when they show up something great comes out of it, which is another Star League. Then some people in the Inner Sphere demonstrate that it is possible to be more evil than the Clans.

Seriously, all you inner sphere surats, need to shut the **** up and listen, Clan Wolf and the rest of the wardens weren't that bad, in fact they tried to get as many planets as possible in the beginning so that way you wouldn't have to deal with the Falcons, and other crusaders, to make your lives easier, sorry we lost the trial of refusal, but remember who sent the Wolf's Dragoons to prepare the inner sphere. Yes their original mission was recon, but then it went into preparing the inner sphere for invasion, and as for all of you calling us targets, you ever go against a binary without having a whole battalion behind you, you should try it sometime, two of your lances, against a binary, see how that works for you.


a binary against two lances would not be honorable, brother wolf, except two of the clan warriors stand aside and do not participate. although they might sometimes deserve it. we shall not lessen our honor by outnumbering them. we just dont have to. :blink:

Once a ******* gain, CRUSADER MENTALITY, how many times do I have to preach this people. :D This is like me calling the davions, dracs... or all the IS committed the Kentares Massacre. It's just bloody infuriating guys, okay? Alright out burst over. ;) Anyone else want to try and clump us together, I am sure even Odin agrees with me on this one, as I am sure that he doesn't want to be called a Wolf again, right Odin?
Umm... did you not read my post dude... the very end of if? Or just the beginning?

"btw... that's just in reference to some of the Crusader Clans"

Before you start ranting and raving... read the whole post next time ;)

Neg I would not like to be called wolf again. As for Ulric's advice it was too IS like but he has machinations that are still on record for undermining the whole invasion. Regardless I say we get rid of the freebirths and then settle our issues in the proper trials.

Clanners are a bunch of scrubs from the deep periphery.

Or if you prefer, they are salvage pinatas.

I think the cultural aspects behind the Clans are what make them so interesting, but I think many people don't know much about them beyond having some vague concepts of honor and "they have cooler stuff". Not that I blame them. I was a BT nut back in the day. :)

I tried to make it so there is no "wrong answer". I thought it would be neat to see where people stand.

(NOTE): I *tried* to delete the old version of this post in the Suggestions forum. I thought it would be more appropriate here.

Just out of curiosity, why did you change from Clan to I.S.?

Actually, that question is for anyone that has done that? I'm curious on the reasons why
