Unless there is a truly compelling reason not to (e.g. the enemy has engaged in dezgra antics) then yes: I will order my star to pair off and fight it out. If the shereoids violate Zellbrigen I will annihilate them and then procede to purge all traces of their command from the galaxy.

Thus do we prove the supperiority of the clan way, Quiaff?

I would do it unless we are all damaged badly or in highly inferior mechs for weight class. In other words if I was in a Medium or Heavy then I would accept unless it was a long range mech such as catapult or Jagermech. But then again I'm gonna spend a lot of time in lights and mediums so it might happen a bit or not ... who knows.

Yes. Gladly. I would even offer to go first on my team, instead of trying to be last and have a spotless repair bill or easiest time dueling an already crippled opponent.

"Burn"

Is the only proper reply a man born of a woman can rightly give. :)

I'll decline and proceed to win conventionally at least till melee combat will be implemented and we agree on solving it that way.

Edit:

piloting a not that much lighter mech then him of course... else I'd proceed as mentioned before.

I wont respect it because the game mechanics dont support such a gameplay. Its the same as asking in Counter Strike for 1v1 duels in a 3v1 situation.

I would grant him this, and if he managed to win he obviously deserved it.

So many people not willing to honor the zellbrigen. Just shows you how unskilled, scared and weak minded they really are.

Unskilled, scared and weak-minded enough to be 3v1 up? :)

Of course not! What is this non-sense you speak of in July of 3049?

Nope. The fight is 12v12. If I got 3 and you got 1, you dead. Just try to die well and get your shots in, maybe take 1 with you.

I would say yes, so I can whip out the ER PPC and show him what getting hit in the face with man-made lightning looks like.

Nope, would not... if they were unskilled, and scared and weak-minded they'd surely not end up with a 3 to 1 numerical advantage over the lone claner after a fair fight. :D

I would honor the Zellbrigen as any true Clansman would.

Then unload the twin PPCs of my Adder into his/her chest.

One of my favorite TT games was agreeing to Zellbrigen with our resident light junkie with my assault lance... And then breaking it when I had him outnumbered so he couldn't swarm me... And had the audacity to be surprised.

I can't for the life of me remember which of us was Clan and which was IS. I almost always played Jade Falcon and he pretty much exclusively played Ice Hellion. However it was also me and Scrapper, whose rivalry and history of stabbing each other in the back was the stuff of legend. XD

Around here though, I don't know why I wouldn't agree to Zellbrigen. I've always liked the whole honor thing in MW/CBT which is hilarious considering I'm such a scoundrel in every other game on the planet.
