The only thing I'm confused about is this: Why bother offering a truce if you're not worried about us beating you? That's a rhetorical question by the way, you don't have to bother answering it. I think we all know the answer already anyway.


We didn't say we wont defend our borders we just wont be on the offensive. So we are not worried about you beating us

Sounds like the perfect time for the clans to attack

Because we're trying to be cool. Admittedly it's easier when you're winning; and have no doubt. We are winning. Every front, all the time. Every time I start to think 'you know, FWL has fought hard and we've taken a lot of worlds, maybe I should focus on...' you start with this again.

Okay. Back to FWL on the 27th.

Ok. So it looks like we're getting this truce for the holidays. Everyone put away your Pen***s, virtual, hypothetical, or theoretical, and enjoy the holidays please. Is pilots are encouraged to take extra care of the clans who happen to be unfamiliar with the the generosity of Christmas, so be generous to them. WITH THE DAKKA.

Now let's all put our egos away, and stop coloring an entire faction based on the fact that there is that one dude we don't like, who plays there.

Enjoy the holidays, and be merry, or people can do silly things that would sour relations, and cause some bigger problems.

Right now every single IS faction wants this to happen, but at the same time we're all holding guns pointed at one another, and the only thing we have to go on, is trusting that the other person is going to pull the trigger.

So: Stop this yammering, relax, and for a few days, have some bloody (not literally) fun. Then we can go back to shooting each other and stomping on the clans.

What's this? A threat from Steiner?

You've got the two most battle-hardened factions in the game ready to throw 12-mans on defense, and you think it's a good time to attack?

Also... Jaxjace... chill, man. Holiday spirit. There's plenty of Clanners for us to plop AC/20 rounds into for the next few days.

It's a threat from a merc unit that has already gone rogue and attacked their allies. They're off the rails over there, so don't hold it against Steiner command.

You mean a time when every IS unit is waiting to pound any and all attackers into the dust? Sounds like fun, go ahead and attack.

Four giants walked through what had, until a short while ago, been Graham IV's city's market square. The pounding of their steps shaking what few windows were left in the windows of the building around them. These giants of metal scanned left and right, their gaze always looking, never ceasing, in assessment of their surroundings. At a distance one could easily mistake them for people.

But then up close, the lie of that was shown.

Some of them standing close to 20m tall, these were Battlemechs, the most powerful of mankind's creations designed for killing his fellow man. Housing weapons that could level entire city blocks, the only realistic way to stop a battlemech, was with another battlemech.

Leading this 4 man group, known as a lance, was one of the most powerful of these creations of destruction. A 85 ton Battlemaster, piloted by Captain Crimson Angel of the mercenary unit Antares Scorpions. Still scanning his surroundings, Crimson key his Mic to transmit.

"Scorpio 1, Scorpio Actual, report".

Waiting for the reply, he listened to the sound of his machines footsteps and the massive Vlar XL400 powering his mech. The sound of slight static announced the incoming message.

"Scorpio 1 reporting, all clear sir, they put a decent fight but we got em in the end"

Nodding to himself, he worked his controls to move his mech around the smoldering remains of what, until a short while ago, had been an AFFS militia centurion. His lance, consisting of a 65 ton Thunderbolt, Jagermech and a 50 ton Hunchback, closely followed behind. Crimson keyed the transmit switch,

"Damage assessment Scorpio 1"

"Not much sir, by the time they realized what was going on, it was all ready over"

"Very good Scorpio 1, link up with us at grid K7-D3, Scorpio Actual out". Easing himself back into his pilot seat, he allowed himself to relax a bit, flicking a switch on his audio control panel.

"Scorpio 2, this is Scorpio Actual, report"

"Scorpio 2 here sir, we have an enemy Victor backed into a corner here, but he is putting up a bit of a fight, could really use that Battlemaster of yours"

"Roger Scorpio 2, ETA 5 minutes for Scorpio Actual, keep him running hot". Pushing the throttle forward, he eased his mech up to 70kph, the massive engine beneath purring in response.

"Anything else to report Scorpio 2?"

"Yes sir, the enemy pilot is demanding to speak to you, he's screaming about us breaking the Steiner-Davion ceasefire", he could hear the smile in his lance commanders voice. Now that, he though to himself, was quite amusing.

"Scorpio 2, you can tell him that I will be there soon to discuss that with him, personally. Scorpio Actual out". The Anatares Scorpion Captain once again adjusted his ACP,

"Acolyte Marius how do you read"

"Read you 5 Captain" replied the Comstar member.

"Send this message to Colonel Mango on Dubhe and Lyran High Command". He allowed himself a grin before continuing,

"Inform them that Operation Snow-White is complete, will rendezvous on Dubhe in 2 months"

So, unreliable mercs who prefer unguarded targets. Not new nor impressive. Admittedly it explains losses to jade falcons lately. Hard to find good help.

And the guy gloating about taking unguarded worlds is named 'Hardkor'... ironic isn't it

Hilarious in a sad way too.
