It was a shocking display of dishonour, to be sure.

Anyhow, I never said you couldn't beat a 12 man, I said you were too chickenshit to attack Steiner. Now that you've proven to all witnesses you have some skill, why not go wreck Planting. It's way closer to Terra, I'm jus sayin.


We have seen enough of cowardly CI hits to know that they enjoy sneak attacking while the main defense force is tied up. If you wish for a challenge feel free to issue it when you are not doing all out rushes for our planet.

Don't want to get in the middle of a fight between the test tube babies, but aren't the Ghost Bears also a Warden Clan in lore?


Negative... at the head of the Invasion they were Crusader minded, and this was with them for the first 3 waves. When they had to replace their Khan and saKhan before wave 4 they elected in Crusader's still (but they have Warden ideas) and over the rest of the invasion and the 15yr Truce they both became of Warden ideology and that slowly filtered down to CGB as a whole.

First congrats on that win. Some good pilots in there. Could not have been an easy match.

Second, if you're going to boast about beating a 12-man in big bold letters, make sure it is a twelve man. Else, it just looks like you can't count. You beat a 11-man with a PUG that, well..... counts as a body at least.

On the topic of zellbrigen Bob "A warrior has right to refuse challenges from Inner Sphere units, especially if underhanded ploys are suspected, and has the right to refuse a challenge from a unit of differing weight class if other unengaged units are available."

You are correct. It wasn't a 12-man. It was a good game and I had fun playing against you all regardless.

All out rushes with a genuine PUG? I know everyone is trying to get cute with the art of war nonsense, but I'm not down with sitting around and not pvping, for the sole sake of allowing another skilled group to basically queue dodge. I frown on that, and you guys should frown on it. There's just not that much at stake here for that kind of jankery, imo.

Like I said, let's view it as a training exercise, and come duel me next time. You can screenshot my blown up mech and call me a baddie.

The matches I've solo dropped into on the CW Clan/Bear front have been some really good tussles. Nice change of pace from the IS/Clan conflicts we've all been restricted to for the last few weeks.

Looks like the crisis has been averted, with a united front from the Wolf ending the training excursion. Good times.

If only you would throw that war machine at Steiner.....

CGB was taking 2 planets a day before their corridor was taken away by the algorithm. They tied up your back field and still surrounded the FRR capitol today. You're saying Wolf can't take 1 planet and defend another?

In my personal opinion, I believe that the Ghost Bears have the most players currently due to certain groups switching from Inner Sphere to Clan, Quiaff?

It all comes down to numbers in the end it seems indeed.

CGB uses 2 of the biggest merc units in the game to do its work for it.

Left without them, I am still certain the Honorable warriors of true Ghost Bear heritage would still manage at least equal our own headway into the inner sphere. Now, however, it is amplified by merc involvement. This is, honestly, the last post I think i can stomach where a Ghost Bear tag brags about their progress while decrying ours.

Get on our level, kid. Then come back.

Ghost Bears had the foresight to seek out additional forces. Wolves did not. Bears take 2 planets a day, or 1 planet and get some battles against a Clan force. Wolves gain a ceasefire with IS on one front, and then fail to take their other planet due to the Bears.

It would seem from this side, the Ghost Bears are doing better at CW than the Wolves.

GB attacks planet...doesn't win...." Just training exercise " "why don't you guys use that same fight against Stiener"

CW defends planet..is like " what's up with these lying a-holes" " we know damn well if we lost the planet to them they would all be bragging and it wouldn't have been practice"

GB is like "we just wanted some good battles en stuff"

CW like " yup these guys are still lying a-holes"

That's all I see in post after post...endless GB or there MS buddies talking smack, can't back it up, backtrack and than try it again....again....again....

The more time we waste fighting each other...is less time we spend advancing in the Inner Sphere.

And less money for everyone involved.

When we're not dropping with more than one group at a time, no. We haven't figured out how to be in two places at once.

Try again Speerit, when MS left, we (CGBI and the other units) took a day to adjust losing a large group and traded planets with FRR, then took that planet and 2 planets practically every day since then, including when MS has rejoined us (until the DC corridor was shut by PGI). The last 2 days have slowed down as we have not been given a planet in DC to attack. . If you don't believe me look at the Tags starting at Svelvik, and move down to New Beger, Heragor, New Oslo, Dawn was ours, but Clan Windomaker got thier tags on by defending it from FRR, (Thank you CWM) Ferleiten, they started making us go left. Which of course I know has also affected CW, and of course the Cease Fire with Stiener.. STS pushed hard into the DC corrider to help CGB keep taking 2 planets a day.

As far as your progress your are 4th closest to Terra (which I know is affect by planets being opened up by pgi as I said above) and since CW has started have net gained the 10 planets the same amount as SJ (Pulling info from here. http://www.reddit.co..._battle_report/ )

I do not mean this post to demean any of the other units fighting under the CGB banner as I know there have been a lot of units who have helped with this effort since day 1 or joined on during and I appreciate all of their efforts, but at least get your facts strait when puffing your chest out with this get on our level stuff.
