Was that a Federated Commonwealth logo I saw in the new DevLog?

Bring it on! Can't wait to stomp some vat-babies with my Steiner Brothers-in-Arms, united, as it should be!

Bonus points for taking some planets from the Snakes, Turkeys, and Cappies eh?

Let's do this!

[Dulahan]

The Steiner Fist shall take up the Davion Sword and together crush the invaders!

[ChapeL]

Just to stir up trouble... keep in mind the sword is always much closer to the enemy than the hand that wields it

[DJO Maverick]

About darn time...

[NocturnalBeast]

Would be good to see the Fedcom in game, it would give Marik/Liao/Kurita a reason to temporarily ally like they did in lore.

[Satan n stuff]

Well we're fighting Steiner it seems, which looks like a huge oversight to me. I don't mind not being able to ally with them, but why are we even allowed to fight them over FedCom planets? The civil war is still years away, as if we don't have enough hostile factions on our borders already.

Talking to my unit leader, it looks like most of the Fed Suns/Lyran Commonwealth fighting is being done by pugs in solo ques. There's a sort of gentleman's agreement among a lot of the units to avoid fighting each other so we can focus on the Dracs, Cappies, and FWL.

[Malleus011]

Yeah, fighting Davions feels really wrong. We should be dropping alongside you guys against the Clanners.

... But... But we are invading you to restore the Star League... Are you so barbarians you will not even put a fight?

Done that in solo queue today. 4 Davions, 4 Steiners, rest mixed. Defending a Kurita world, I believe.

When you guys stop fighting each other and properly invade, then we'll talk.

Yeah, if you don't end up as the "Extra 1-4 Solo Guys in with a 8-11-man Premade", it's a rough world out there for us solo CW droppers.

Still having fun, but...



*Edited to add, me and roughly 7 other soloists, with two 2-man drops, found ourselves up against what I believe was a House of Lords premade today (CJF with a <LORD> tag?). I'm not the best out there, I'm not the worst out there...but if there's one thing I know, it's that I have no business what-so-ever being in a drop against that lot. We helped put the "OFL" in "ROFLstomp".

Go say that to Clan Ghost "Beer"... Especially the -MS- (MercStar) theses guys are acting like 12 years old boys and attacking everything they see. Outpost captured, they also took a planet of the Smoke Jaguar, leaving them with only 3 remaining.
And they are currently busy tring to attack Clan Wolf....

That's funny, I could have sworn you puppies captured some weed kitty space too.
I guess the mighty clanners would prefer to capture undefended planets while the Jaguars are busy actually invading.

As for myself, I will keep trying to push back the Steiners until they stop attacking Davion space, I'm not gonna waste my time on the Kurita border when PUGs are getting trashed left, right and center by units such as 228th.

Neg', I don't think we have the ability to attack the Clan Smoke Jaguar, we had I believe no route to them, it is Clan Ghost Beer doing, they also took Outpost...

The only good thing is Clan Jade Falcon who took Somerset like in the Lore... Now you can be sur to see in the Inner Sphere in a few year a poorly made holovid.

They actually did take it? I haven't logged in today but yesterday the Steiners and other IS forces were holding it at 11 tokens for most of the day. I guess Somerset is going to be a problem for the 1st Somerset Strikers from now on.

[pinsndneedles]

So, here's a thought. Since the Jags are too incompetent to actually take Turtle Bay (or all the neckbeards like me are defending it because we can prevent Edo from being erased) maybe Operations Bulldog and Serpent will target a different clan? Maybe the Falcons? And we can avoid the whole mess with Katherine if we just, you know, make sure her jumpship or dropship has an "accident" while she's in-transit. Just saying

[Malleus011]

I've always disliked the Fed-Com civil war storyline. Katherine 'stealing' half the realm never felt believable.

Now, Skye pulling off some kind of rebellion ...
