The Black Forge

Who are we?

The Black Forge is a unit comprised of tight-knit, competitive/hardcore Inner Sphere sportsmen/women that deeply immerse themselves in the Battletech Universe. The Black Forge is designed for the Mechwarrior/Battletech enthusiast of (almost) all stripes and ages who want to be the best they can be, and work together along side those with the same vision.

Our soldiers fight as one to overcome all obstacles, and work with one another to establish true camaraderie and a stronger team. Our brotherhood fights in the name of the Inner-Sphere and its people as we vie to bring the Clans crumbling to their knees.

What is our vision?

The Black Forge envisions a brotherhood of mechwarriors that strengthen and empower one another. We strengthen our members through training and education in warfare. We empower them by giving them a sense of purpose and belonging.

The Black Forge strives to accomplish its vision by upholding its values and establishing true camaraderie within its ranks. We work very hard as a unit, we play very hard to earn our victories. Every victory, no matter how small, is celebrated together. Every defeat is a lesson learned.

We wish is to be the best we can be, while having a blast doing it! While other units exist only to gain profit and enlist a huge army, we exist to dominate our foes and share the experience together as one.

What sets us apart?

The Black Forge truly believes in humility, honor, respect and dedication. We know that there is always room for improvement, regardless of how we did. The Black Forge believes there is no skill cap, such ideals are merely self inflicted limitations. We believe only in skill progression.

As enthusiastic and hardcore as we are about Battletech and Mechwarrior, we consider this our E-Sport. We strive to be proper sportsmen and sportswoman with great attitudes and encourage a friendly, welcoming environment. Nothing is worse than a bunch of elitist jerks. That is why we try so hard to remain humble and remember that we can always be a better version of ourselves!

The Black Forge is a highly organized unit at its core. Our unit incorporates spreadsheets for setting up dropdecks, deploying forces, keeping records, tracking intelligence and more.

Aside from pregame or unit organization, we have developed a unique system for achieving hardcore play, while allowing our members a great deal of build freedom. Every one of our 'mechs are dedicated to specific roles in order to achieve maximum combat effectiveness.

The Black Forge is a unit that truly grants rank meritoriously! Our ranks are indicators of ones ability, and commitment level to the group. The harder you try, and the more you play, the more you are rewarded with additional privileges. These privileges include the ability to lead on the field, unit specialist positions, etc. Aside from the ranks, everyone is held accountable for themselves and we all follow the same set of rules without exception. Even, and especially, our leaders.

The Black Forge follows a chain of command, with the end decisions concerning major course corrections being made by the leadership. That being said, our leadership still asks for the opinions of its community and during unit meetings asks to know how its community feels. We value our communities thoughts and listen intently to what each and every member has to say.

If you're an Inner Sphere pilot looking for a hardcore, fun and structured place to play, or simply crave the fellowship of other die hard Mechwarrior enthusiasts then join the Black Forge at https://metalmercs.e...com/recruitment

To learn more about our about us, head over to our unit information hub at: http://metalmercs.enjin.com/aboutus

We look forward to hearing from you!

Mech The Dane,

Thank you for inviting The Black Forge to join in this campaign based league. Typically we stay away from leagues, however… this isn’t exactly a league. It looks more like scenario gameplay among units, and frankly, looks like a blast!

However again, we cannot enter at this time. We undergoing a massive recruitment and training initiative here in The Black Forge. Even command is engaging hands on in seeing to the needs, success, and wellbeing of our most fledgling pilots.

We would like more information, and a way to remain in contact. When we are ready to enter in the future, possibly on the next cycle, we would be most honored to attend and give it our best shot!

Thanks again, and looking forward to speaking with you more,

-Vectoron, Master of The Black Forge.

[Jarl Dane]

Ah, that's too bad.

The last season was two years ago and lasted about 4 months. I don't know when the next will be. But teams are allowed to join and activate factions after the league starts, so if you get to a good place with your unit feel free to get involved.

“...It was as if the very heavens were torn asunder as the great rift had opened. Great black demons clad in metal descended from the rift with a thunderous noise and slew our captors with a fire in their eyes and a blackness in their hearts I had never seen before... Though we were spared that dreadful day, it was a terrible sight to behold… truly, hell itself had come to our world to claim their wicked souls… may evil never visit us again… may the demons need never return…”

"The battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos, both his own and the enemies." ~Napoleon Bonaparte

The Black Forge is a unit comprised of tight-knit, hardcore Inner Sphere pilots immersed in the Battletech Universe. Our soldiers fight as a coordinated unit to overcome all obstacles, and in our efforts establish true camaraderie.

The Black Forge strides to be a brotherhood that builds on the strengths of each member and empowers them to do their best. Through training and education, we forge our members into the weapons of war. We work hard as a unit, and we play hard to earn our victories.

Every victory, no matter how small, is celebrated together. Every defeat is a lesson learned.

Our brotherhood fights in the name of the Inner-Sphere as we contest the savagery of the Clans and bring low to their knees, the enemies of the Inner Sphere’s people. While we work hard to let slip the dogs of war onto the Clans, we want to have a blast doing it!

While other units exist only to gain profit and enlist a huge army, we exist to dominate our foes and share the experience together as one.

The Black Forge truly believes in humility, honor, respect and dedication. We know that there is always room for improvement, regardless of how we did. The Black Forge believes there is no skill cap, such ideals are artificial limitations and mental blocks that prevent growth. We believe only in skill progression.

The Black Forge is a highly organized unit at its core. Our unit incorporates spreadsheets for setting up drop decks, deploying forces, keeping records, tracking intelligence, well structure rank/command hierarchy and more.
