What is the meaning In the jade falcon banner (The Jade Falcon clutching the katana with what looks to me like a letter D). It's probably not a D though just wondering what that is/means.

after a brief investigation i have determined its a rank of some kind, I think..

The falcon cluching a katana is part of a tale of or clans first kahn i will sum it up as best as i can

Elizabeth Hazen was the first person to train a jade falcon a genetic enginerd preditor made to hunt a flying snake in the kerensky cluster she named it turkana.

Shortly after turkanas death elizabeth and general dehaviler were sent with infantry to subdue a rebellion on the planet eden during the combat her mech went down and she ejected and was hit in the head. When she came too dehavilers mech went down to inferno rounds and as he ejected he was struck by one and burned to death. The shock of a close friend dying in such a way so soon after the death of her beloved falcon broke Elizabeth and she fled into the jungle.

There as she was feeling sorry for herself turkana appered to her and scolded her once strong mistress for what she had become and commanede her to go back and fight. Elizabeth responded with the fact she had no weapons to which the falcon replied "have you not learned that a warrior needs no other weapon but herself mechs and swords are extensions of the weapon you already are" elizabeth heartend returned to the battle with just her hands determend to end the rebellion as she came upon the enemy a screach filled the air and turkana dropped dehavilers katana to her mistress

While this is not the whole tail that appers in the jade falcon book it is the core with a few bits cut

My Fellow Falcons i am starting to feel that the wolf's dragoons should not be the only scorce of information for the invasion of the inner sphere so i am calling for us to send our own unit in to do some reconicence and report back to US incase the dragoons try to cover anything.

(ooc: this post serves two purposes 1) if someone is planning to set up a Jade Falcon based merc unit for us to wait untill we get to play as our beloved clan let me know im in and 2) if we do start a unit (i dont want to run it ATM) we could start an RP thread to pass the time)

Talk to Seth then. I believe he is setting up a group called the Red Corsairs.

The Issue is that the Red Corsairs is also a wolf unit (look at the cannon), I would rather be part of a pure falcon unit, not to sound like a a-hole, but it would suck to get used to dropping with another pilot only to have to turn around and fight with him within 6 months.

I actually agree with you on that one Reaver. The comraderie and brotherhood that you experience in combat, would be a shame to waste just because that we finally got to the Clans, and that I was a Wolf, and you were a Falcon. Though if you need some extra firepower to back you up, look me up, this Wolf still has a bit of fight left in it.

... I demand a trial of grievance, for A. assuming that you will have command, B for having one of Guardian Wolf's non existent ranks, and C. being on a freebirth world so far from clan space makes me question your legitimacy.

We are going with the Red Corsairs moniker because it is the only Falcon unit that was given free reign to accomplish its mission similar to the Wolfs Dragoons. It has enough of a connection to Clan Jade Falcon for us to maintain a claim to that faction and obscure enough that it is not an obvious connection to the uninformed. We are satisfied with that compromise until the Clans become a playable faction.

Ok, hmm, I might join then (I really am tired of playing MMO's as a solo player).

[Seth]

Sure, check us out at www.ClanJadeFalcon.com. We still play MechWarrior 4 on Tuesdays.

stop pretending to the falcon heritage. your rank does not exist, your name is poorly communicated, and you are clearly a freebirth from new avalon.

The smell of battle beckons us to battle. Soon all of the IS will feel the power of the Falcon's talons.

A freebirth in command of a cluster? Smells of a dishonorable trickery.
