There is Lore, and there is Lore.
Here, we are the Clans fighting the Inner Sphere, but the main goal is to have fun. NOT pissing off everybody and theres mums.


We attack the Inner Sphere, trying to get territory, but it should not be by kicking eachothers in the balls and acting like douchebags. It should not be by childish way like that.


But apparently, some guys like to take a Lore and use only the bad things of it.

Who said we are supposed to fight the IS though? Thats one HELL of an assumption on your part! Seriously? IS fight each other and use We fight the IS and each other. Thats not being a douche, thats how the game mechanics work!

I've rewritten what you wrote in a more accurate light...

There is Lore, and there is Lore.
Here, we are the Clans fighting for territory, but the main goal is to have fun. Someone gets pissed off thats their problem, let them take ownership of their own attitudes and reactions. Or ask their mums for help with that.


We attack the Inner Sphere, trying to get territory, and anyone else if they happen to have territory we may want, including kicking another clan in the balls, even if they whine about it like douchebags. It should not be by bowing to childish wailling about imagined fairness and unwritten rules enforced on others.


But apparently, some guys like to take a great fictional clan and turn it into a fraternity of monks and peace protesters.

a litle lore for you as at 3050...

Following the death of ilKhan Leo Showers over Radstadt in 3050, "reserve" Clans Steel Viper and Nova Cat were added ostensibly to "aid" the efforts of Clans Jade Falcon and Smoke Jaguar, while a seventh Clan, Clan Diamond Shark, did not mobilize in time to "aid" Clan Ghost Bear. However, the additions of these reserve Clans were actually meant to hinder the progress by Clan Wolf's rivals, a machination by newly-elected ilKhan Ulric Kerensky of Clan Wolf. In fact, Clans Steel Viper and Nova Cat were intentionally assigned to invasion corridors already assigned to bitter rivals.

In another machination by ilKhan Ulric, the Clans "revealed" the ultimate goal of the Clan Invasion to ComStar in 3051 - Terra, ComStar's home. The rationale behind the Terran conquest was simple - the Clan capable of successfully conquering mankind's home world would become the ilClan, the Clan which would guide/control the creation of the new Star League. IlKhan Ulric (a Warden) gambled that ComStar would not stand idly while Terra was conquered. While the less sophisticated armies of the Successor Lords could not stop the Clans for some time, Ulric hoped either the more sophisticated Com Guards would halt the Clan invasion (or ensure Clan Wolf would become the ilClan). In either eventuality, Ulric's Warden stance would become ascendant.


In short... did the Clans play nice with each other during Operation Revival? Hell no! Even the Home Clans were up to shite and fighting.

The ultimate goal is to be the first among Clans upon reaching Terra, The ilclan. No way would you hesitate to trip up a rival clan to help your own cause.

Even the Falcons and the Ravens end up feuding at this time after Falcon scientists mess with McKenna bloodline material and the Ravens strand them by pulling their Warship transport contracts in retaliation.

Political intrigue... wonderful stuff!

Too bad these wolves are space hippies

Let us clear something up right now. Wherever you got that from, there is an error.

That is wrong. They never were assigned to help Ghost Bear. They took the place of the Steel Vipers as the reserve Clan.

[Alexander Steel]

I got the impression that Diamond Sharks did what Diamond Sharks do best, act as merchants and transporters of good for all the invading clans.

Blablabla stuff more blablabla
But apparently some people like to make out argument about there so called "great clan" and will be d!cks if they can.
Forgetting the goal of a video game before everything else. Having fun and letting the others having fun.
But seems like it is too hard.

The worst is I'm pretty sur if you had the opportunity to destroy all the others clans, you would do it "just for the lulz" like a 9 years old {encumber}.

Nice bird by the way, that one suit you better I think.

I won't discuss with a kid who have for concept of "fun" the idea of ruining the pleasure of the others players.

You dare use theses pictures like you were a Ghost Bear.

A true Ghost Bear would be in the current case closer to this.

[Jaroth Corbett]

So? That is Sarna. I told everyone many times before, I wipe my ass with Sarna. They have been wrong in the past which is why I do not reference them. It looks like they still are in error. The source material says DS was set as the new reserve Clan in place of the Steel Vipers. I will post pics after I eat.

This is really just a humorous aside, but how do you wipe your ass with an online wiki? Does your screen get the brunt? Or do you print it out first onto soft tissue paper? Please tell me you use soft tissue paper. Otherwise this is just a painful concept and the dude does not abide.

[CyclonerM]

I read that too, and you are right that the Sharks were a reserve Clan, but where is it written that it was specifically a reserve Clan for the Steel Vipers?

[Jaroth Corbett]

They took the place of the Vipers as the reserve Clan.

[Alexander Steel]

What were the Nova Cats then? Or were they reserve as well? Or just a clan Ulric pulled out a of a hat to stick it to the Jags?

It says it right there. They were a Warden Clan Ulric placed as an assault force to temper Crusader pace with the added bonus of being hated by the Jags.

[Alexander Steel]

So he could have picked any clan at that point from the ones still at home? Hmmm... interesting.

[Jaroth Corbett]

As ilKhan yes he could have.

Sarna http://www.sarna.net...i/Clan_Invasion

Like Jaroth Corbett said, Sarna, like any wiki out there, is not always reliable. Those that have the sourcebooks (Wolf Clan Sourcebook, Jade Falcon Sourcebook, Invading Clans, The Clans: Warriors of Kerensky, Field Manual: Crusader Clans/Warden Clans, etc) will always have the most reliable answers to clan lore, especially when they can actually cite page and paragraph to back their claims (like Jaroth Corbett did).
