Name: White Rose Legion
Affiliation or Faction: Reputable Mercenary, currently under retainer to House Steiner of the Lyran Commonwealth
Preferred Focus and Tactics: Force Recon and Fast Assault
Preferred Time Zone: US Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific
Outreach Description: The White Rose Legion was formally founded before the end of the Third Succession War by a group of officers and mechwarriors from the now defunct "Black-Rose Legion", which was largely destroyed during a raid by DCMS forces in 3019. Due to the valiant manner in which the mercenaries had availed themselves against a superior force in defense of its assets, the new company was given an immediate contract with Lyran Commonwealth. Still under contract to the LC, the Legionnaires frequently request raiding missions into Kurita space.
According to their postings, the Legion is currently recruiting:
Reputable mercenary company open to new recruits. Multiple positions open for mech pilots, technicians, and general labor who are looking for a new home to earn solid pay while ripping it up on the far reaches of the periphery.
Behind the Scenes: The online gaming guild known as the Legion of the White Rose was founded in 1998 by members of a long running Battletech tabletop gaming group collectively known as the "Black-Rose Legion". In the early to mid-90's, this group consisted of roughly two dozen gamers in rural Minnesota who would spend countless hours and late nights pouring over hexmaps, discussing the finer points of difference between the different versions of the Mercenary's Handbook, rolling dice, and painting a small army of Ral Partha miniatures.
Contracts came and went, players moved away or moved on from the hobby, but even today, separated by thousands of miles, the Legion marches on. It's been 20 years since we've been able to turn our eyes toward negotiations on Outreach, but our love of the Mechwarrior universe has only grown in the interim.
So, we're shaking the dust off our old character sheets (2nd edition is still my favorite), finding old CD-Roms full of rosters and mech configurations, and we're putting some time and effort into beefing up our home PCs. It's time to get back into the fight.
We are looking for mature players that like to have fun, no drama, and a feeling of brotherhood. We always treat our opponents with respect, which means we do not engage in derogatory trash talking, whether they deserve it or not. We use Ventrilo for voice comms.
If this sounds like your kind of scene, let us know. We're always looking for new legends to tell.
