Concerned? On the contrary, we would love to see some organized resistance. Smooshing uncoordinated pubbies like panicked chickens is amusing at first, but quickly grows routine.

Goons thrive on conflict. An enemy that just rolls over and dies holds far less interest to us than one we can try to wear down and conquer. We're not trash talking and trolling you gentlemen. We're grooming you and egging you on to give us something interesting to fight.

This was the biggest problem with WoT clan warfare. Every single clan, including the supposedly "elite" ones were disorganized and pathetic. It was fun to laugh at them the first few times, but they eventually bored me and many other players to the point of quitting.

Please for the love of all that is good and decent in the universe, organize house Davion and provide us with a challenge.

Basically if you want a good laugh, don't organise in any way and watch as we end up legging each other in our dropzones and leapfrogging in our Cataphracts because it's more fun than rolling a disorganised rabble for the nth time.

That sounds like excellent "Drunken MechNight" material.

A herd of petite-bourgeois drones trying to organise their house of cards is pitiable.

As if we'd ever let a bunch of jumped-up merchants anywhere near our 'Mechs! The very thought makes me want to kill a peasant!

Awesome post, totally something they will believe

Someone needs to change the title of this thread to "Don't feed the Trolls" and lock it.

Don't wait until problems pile up and cause a lot of trouble before trying to solve them. Leaders must march ahead of the movement, not lag behind it.

considering the clan invasion is a long way off. the bigest threat to house davion at the moment would easily be lyrian scouting lances (actualy i take that back that right there is a royal pain in the arse no matter who you are)..... and maybe well organised capellans.

13 August 3049 - Phelan Kell captured by Vlad [Ward] on The Rock.

If we stick to canon, the first recognized clan encounter is les than two months off, 6 days after Injection Day.

The periphery takes a hard hit in August and September, then Wave 1 is set for midway through next year.

The trick being that the Inner Sphere won't know it is the clans. Initial speculation will be anything from aliens to pirates. The news that its actually the SLDF returned shouldn't hit until 3050 or 3051.

Please remember that the Lyrans are supposed to be on friendly terms with us until the FedCom Civil War many, many years from now. Our major concerns are the remains of the wedding gift that we'll be referring to as 'The Capellans', and those Draconis Combine nutjobs.

Yeah, really we should only have to worry about 2 fronts, but it depends on how sandbox the Community Warefare metagame is. If it doesn't enforce cannon, we culd find ourselves being targetted by all of the houses right off (well, maybe second. FRR won't survive the combined assaults from LCAF and DCMS). If cannon is enforced, we'll need a token garrison along the Capellan border, and concentration of everything else along the Dragon border.

Then again, if cannon isn't enforced that well, and we hold out until the clans come, then we, the capellans, and FWL can team up and take the "North" pretty easily. That could be fun....

[Jack Gallows]

Really depends on how we're able to make alliances or what not, if we're able to actually play with any of the Lyrans. I'm going to assume right now that we can't and that it really is 5 nations against each other instead of us and the Lyrans working together in the FedCom, but I guess a bit of communication with them could make a defacto Commonwealth.

And if not, the Dracs and the Lyrans can hold off the Clans while we and the FWL dominate the Capellans (if we haven't done so already.)

All reactionaries are paper tigers. In appearance, the reactionaries are terrifying, but in reality they are not so powerful. From a long-term point of view, it is not the reactionaries but the people who are really powerful.

[Mason Grimm]

Lets keep things a little more on topic and a little less coffee table philosophy folks.

[Vandal]

Boasts are useless, the most grievous mistake the Davion forces could possibly make is to underestimate the Word of Lowtax backed Capellan Confederation. That suits us just fine.
