I recently put together some clips from the old Battle Tech cartoon involving Jade Falcon. I've posted the video below, enjoy:

Isn't the whole series on Youtube?

That show as awesome. I remember watching that live on TV, and then talking about it with my buddies at the playground.

20 years later, battletech still rocks.

Hell yeah it does. Sure it might be ludicrously out of canon, but it's what initially got me into the universe.

"You dare to refuse my BATCHALL?!!?!?!?!"

And the Jade Pigeons.. Err Falcons are not really painted as good guys in that cartoon

Too bad it is the closest thing we ever had to a BattleTech movie. What are you waiting for?!

Officially, the contents and storyline in this series is not Canon, but the series as a whole is identified in canon as a childrens cartoon series for entertainment purposes.

About the only subsequent canon aspacts are that there was an Adam Steiner and the Battle Armour did end up getting deployed.

The first video reminds me of a you tube video I once saw- it was endless split-second clips in the movie Scarface where someone says the F-word. It was over 2 and a half minutes long...

Ah, half of you Wolves ran from us with your tails between your legs and the other half joined us. We view our goal of Terra with the clarity of the Falcon's vision!

I remember watching that show when i was like six and not understanding any of the clan lingo, but "errrrrmmaaggh big robots fighting, so cool !". It wasn't till i was 15 and starting reading the novels did i understand any of the clan terminology

Since when a warrior ordered to flee to preserve the true core of his Clan despite his will to keep fighting is considered a coward?
And since when the Crusader Wolves have joined you for more than less than a month? Shall i remind you of how Vlad Ward, a muisguided Wolf but still a Wolf, quite easily killed your mighty Khans with cunnning, matched with stealth, joined by a final terryfing attack?

And anyway, you might see your goal with the clarity of the Falcon's vision, but judging by your performance on Tukayyid i somehow doubt your Clan is the most worthy of restablishing the Star League..

Oh dear Cyclone,

Haven't I already demonstrated beyond all possible doubt the error of these?

I guess everyone has a different opinion on "beyond all possible doubt".
Have i not demonstrated beyond all possible doubt how personal interpretations of facts can never be thrown out of any window when discussing about lore facts?

P.S. Yeah, i would have expected such a deteriorated language from a spheroid freeborn like me, not from a trueborn warrior of the most honorable and conservative Clan

I think Craig may be one of thous self-hating freeborn I sometimes hear about.
