Agreed. I would hope people will be able to keep things civil.

Though keep up the RP stuff. Its either awesome, or funny. Or both

Lol.
Cease fires remind me of little mini alliances while playing super smash brothers or mario party...

Ahh, the memories .
"Truce?"
"Hey! I said truce! C'moooooon..."

"Can we switch weapons? I'll drop mine and you drop yours and we can switch... On three. one.. two.. three!"
*I throw my weapon off the edge, charge smash him, take his weapon and kill him with it*
"DUDE!!!"
*maniacal laughing*

No one could understand that if there were supposed to be alliances we would have set the game mode for that... But every time: "Free-for-all?", "Yea!"
and then
"hey lets be friends no hitting each other ok?"

Folks can make a big deal about this and get upset about it if they want, but there is (mostly : ) good feelings about Wolf from the Mercstar Alliance. We respect the many Wolf groups, but we have decided to increase our fun, for now, by increasing another attack lane. If anything, we hope those of Wolf recognize that we will look forward to a higher caliber of game, win or lose, and this will not be slowing down our drive to get to Terra. So far we have already enjoyed some great games against folks from GK.

Talking **** and trolling is really unnecessary guys, it does no one any favors.

Roleplaying aside, I agree with Specops...we are all in this game together, lets keep the thread classy. This can be a fun turn of events! No need to get nasty.

This fun you speak of, it will burn. Good day sirs!

No matter how you look at it this is still trolling. Even if they somehow make any headway against us when they switch alliances next week it will all get taken back. They can use whatever excuse for trolling that they want it will never result in any matches against Jade Falcon and will only serve to ensure that we waste resources that would otherwise be spent pushign towards Terra.

So really what they are saying is they want to slow our advance and it is Clan Wolf that they want to fight because if they wanted to really fight Jade Falcon there are ways to do it that will actually work.

No trolling going on. The desire to create a path to Jade Falcon is a separate issue that had been set aside for the most part without more interest from Wolf. In this case we found only a single IS attack lane after tonight's ceasefire. To mix it up and keep it interesting we decided to battle with Wolf. Friendly battles are not about trolling.

Shout out to GK! We had a pair of very fun matches with them tonight.

Best games we have had this entire contract period actually.

Much better than the random's we keep finding on the single IS border we have left

Wow, with all this off-topic and race-slamming, maybe "The Threadnaught" will finally die.

It got pretty crazy. And yet it has found itself back on topic! Kind of.

So much for the strong and fearless Clan Wolf. Or maybe it should be known as Clan Steiner?

All the accusations of being honourless leveled at me and then Clan Wolf forms a non agression pact with the enemy.

How dezgra is that? What a "howler" perhaps?

Please, please, lets talk about honour again, I really, really, really need a good laugh.

[Pat Kell]

Steiner and wolf cease fire eh, good, maybe we can shoot ahead of them some and get over to FRR so we have some more planets to attack without enraging all the other clans by attacking clan wolf....

I just read like... I dunno.. a lot a lot of this.
Whoever has that Bear driving the car gif I applaud you that was the best part of this thread.

I personally want the bears to attempt to push through Wolf space to get to CJF cause more queues for when I do get to play(I literally dont care what reasoning you have for attacking wolf space I just want to play against more than turrets in more than half my matches.)

Why cant we all have a race to, oh I dunno, Canopus IV? Farther than Terra, and they have harems! Terra might be the birthplace, but it seems sort of... I dunno... bland. Bunch of religious nutjobs walking around in robes. Harems or robes. Harems. Robes. Tough choice I know.



2 more things:

Show of hands here, who all plays as a clanner because they simply like clan mechs more than IS ones? Cause I know you exist! Don't be shy, you know you can come out of the closet. I am there too.(Mainly cause of my Timber Wolf and my inability to turn down the color blue. That God-awful orange "amber" color was a horrible choice. Of all the lore things you could've changed, you kept that damned hud-color.)

Oh, and why in the hell is anyone worried about having alliances in a BETA that DOESNT MATTER when the beta isnt even going to be over for AT MINIMUM(we remember what PGI does with minimums and maximums right?) 3 months? You seriously want grueling months(MINIMUM) of looking at planets that you can attack that you just go "nahhhhhh I'd rather wait in a queue to attack turrets." I sure as hell don't.

Using a Dark Caste for Clan is not really good for the lore.
And even if you are not using the lore to the letter. Remember there will be people who follow it much closer.

Please, convince PGI to allow the option to represent oursleves better. I have made numerous posts and official suggestions about introducing a bandit/pirate faction. This is the closest fit to representing our interests and as clandestine elements in the CGB channel it works based on the options available and from the idea that we would be representative in the Clans from Lore.

But please tell me more about your lore following pact with steiner? CW members played the honour card, and now they seem to be more dishonourable to the clan idea with their pact with steiner. If anything I would say that the Dark Born has if anything be more representative in helping Clan efforts on the field by keeping their association with CGB than this betrayel.

Must be a sad day for you when the Dark Caste is perhaps more honourable than yourselves. I guess lucky that there isnt an effective council else they'd likely call for a Trial of annihilation or absorption from the other Clans.

P.S. I can supply you with German phrasebooks, quija?

First of all PGI has pissed all over the corpse that was BattleTech lore at this point so really everyone should stop citing lore as some sort of resource/validation for anything.

The pact with Steiner is hardly a betrayal, (I think some people don't know what that word means), and while we aren't attacking steiner planets we have been helping CJF hold theirs.

The steiner pact also has allowed the clans to focus two clans CGB and Wolf against 1 IS faction, the effect this has had speaks for itself if you look at the map. FRR is losing 2 planets a day minimum since the xmas holiday ended, after the space Vikings are successfully subdued (wont take much longer) we can then put a more concentrated and united effort into dealing with the other IS factions

If anything the Steiner pact has benefited the clans more than any IS faction, we're still taking territory and the clans arent losing any, (whats not to like about that we are all still unified under the idea of freeing the IS from Tyrannical house rule afterall) its also created a big rift between a lot of IS organized units who are now pissed and actually refusing to help Steiner, and has caused a couple merc corps to even join the clans instead.

TLDR version:
The IS is the enemy, once they are subdued THEN we can go about settling our own scores
