(http://mwomercs.com/...ost__p__4192852 - THIS is the first post in this REVISED thread. What follows here in the Original Post was what at "First Blush" appeared to be true about the Marik-Star League. Further Marik-Star League ACTIONS prove the LIE to initial periods of all to brief peace. This thread had previously been named: Marik Star League "Soft Peace" Proves a Reality)

The Clan Smoke Jaguar (CSJ) world of YARDLEY was lost to elements of the Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery (DCMS) during today's Euro-cycle due to a MOMENTOUS push by 6-12man Unit / Faction Drops, plus an estimated 30+ soloist/small Unit gamers.

The Kurita High Command is assessed as pulling off the single greatest weekday, Euro-cycle Surge of Troops yet seem against CSJ since the inception of OPN REVIVAL.

The number of Kurita Attackers against the CSJ recently liberated planet of Yardley are numbers formerly associated ONLY with NA-cycles OR Weekend Cycles-inclusive.


ASSESSMENT: It is estimated that such was the SURGE OF KURITA MERCENARIES today that it partially explained why their was a lull during much of the past 24-hours and that there may be another lull during this CURRENT NA-cycle perhaps permitting CSJ to liberate ANOTHER Kurita world.

RECOMMENDATION: CSJ and Clan Ghost Bear (CGB) Unit Leaders and Soloists should occasionally test the waters during the current NA-cycle and if ANY Combine weakness in DCMS response is noted, then an all-out (short-term) attack by as many Units and Soloist as can respond. In the case of CSJ a successful attack during tonight's Euro-cycle just may net CSJ a SECOND Kurita world in as many days.


AThere were ZERO hostilities along the Kurita borders with Davion and Marik (Please review data @ https://mrbcleague.com/cw/index.html# Partially confirmed through Inner Sphere Fifth Columnist, aka WDragoons.)

AThere were ZERO hostilities along ANY Marik borders today (Please review data @ https://mrbcleague.com/cw/index.html# Definitively confirmed through Inner Sphere Fifth Columnist, aka WDragoons.)

The only SIGNIFICANT breaking of the Marik Star League "soft-peace" occurred along the Liao border with House Davion and due to the dearth of Liao forces sighted defending probing attacks against "northern" House worlds, it is assessed that House Liao was the aggressor, breaking in minor fashion the Marik Star League "soft peace."



More to follow as it becomes available, please add ANY and ALL comments as there are many unknown pieces to the Marik Star League puzzle...

...and I would be most interested in ascertaining just how pervasive Marik "Branding" within Star League structures and machinations becomes.

Understandable strategy, if completely biased toward Inner Sphere predilection of Clan Fratricide.

Thus thank you but no... I do not believe this strategy is in the best interests of CSJ specifically nor the Clans in general.

But perhaps we just redouble our efforts along the Kurita Front?

[dervishx5]

I suggest you do as Kurita doesn't see you as a threat anymore.

BWC actually has a long history of working for Marik, and were sent to Kurita when we were working on getting the nSL together. Now that HK is out, they're over at the FRR, doing the same thing.

As scathing as it is shocking, the Draconis Combine's rebuke of the Marik Star League sent a clarion clear signal acrossthe Inner Sphere, all the way to Clan Space and Strana Mechty.

House Kurita's resolute stance in opposition to Marik Leadership of the Second Star League sent shock waves throughout much of the Inner Sphere but left some Clan Leaders unsurprised. (http://mwomercs.com/...ost__p__4187578) One Clan Smoke Jaguar Senior Elder commented on the record, that it is unsurprising that an honorable and noble Faction, such as House Kurita would see through the facade of a "MARIK" star league. Surely it will no be long before House Marik becomes an Inner Sphere pariah for its audacity to assume the mantel of First House of a reborn Star League... parliament? More like Marik puppets for all this "Soft Peace" has PROVEN TO BE A LIE."

Interested by these comments records were combed and signal intercepts reviewed. The resulting lie of a Marik Star League "Soft Peace" became clear. Details follow:

1. The Draconis Combine High Command made public what had earlier been promised in private [that the Combine would not be part and parcel of a Marik Star League(M-SL)] during the tail end of the 11FEB NA-cycle.

And what is the VERY FIRST use of the Marik-SLDF?

Did Marik-SLDF choose to protect member Worlds?

Was it a synchronized operation along the lines of Clan CONPLAN IRON DOME, with its assured and mutual defensive allocations toward Clan Common Defense on ALL CLAN WORLDS?

No.

3. Marik-SLDF Units began an ALL-OUT assault during this same 11FEB NA-cycle that HK announced its refusal to be complicit in Marik's Star League scheme. Marik-SLDF Units unleashed coordinated attacks all along the Marik-SL's Border with House Kurita. Marik-SLDF Units have since captured Asta, Deneb Algedi, and Styx with Marik-SLDF Vanguard Units already conducting attacks on the Kurita Sovereign world of Marik-Nirasaki.

While the VERY FIRST USE of the Marik Star League Defense Force (Marik-SLDF) Units was to reduce to smoldering ruin, three Draconis Combine worlds (Asta, Deneb Algedi, and Styx), Marik-SLDF Units have also conducted attacks against subversive (anti-Marik) elements on the Lyran worlds of Thorin, Murphid and Zollikofen as well as wantonly and recklessly endangering the civilian population of the Davion world of Carver, harshly subjugating the previously free and independent peoples of this Federated Common wealth world whose ancestors were so very instrumental in holding out despite a grueling and cruel siege lasting more than six years during the Amaris Coup, circa 2768-2773.

YES, that is right, since the founding of the Marik Star League (M-SL) M-SLDFs have contributed negligible forces in Defence of those Houses in gravest need, FRR, House Steiner and House Kurita.

Instead the M-SLDF preys on surrounding Houses of the Inner Sphere. Let us take a look at recent Inner Sphere battle results since the #ForgingOfTheMarikStarLeague:

In less than three days the FRR has lost 6 Worlds: Satalice, Lothan, Thannhausen, Ramsau, Nirasaki, and Wheel.
House Davian has lost 3 worlds: Olancha, Carver, and Clovis.
House Steiner has lost 3 worlds: Benfled, and Blair Atholl.

The Marik-Star League "Soft Peace" has proven to be a sham. The Draconis Combine should take pride in standing up to a would be Hegemony

ASSESSMENT: The Marik Star League believes it can NOT be seen as weakened by the Draconis Combines public repudiation of Marik's intents and purposes under the thin mantle / title of "Star League." The Inner Sphere power-play by Marik Leadership and complicit Fifth Columnist in Houses Davion and Steiner will only work so long as there remained the illusion of a unified Inner Sphere.

With the loss of three worlds to Marik-SLDF Units since the #ForgingOfTheMarikStarLeague, it is assessed the House Steiner is the next most likely Inner Sphere House to break from the Marik's lead of the Marik-SL. If House Davion is also the target of addition aggression by Marik-SLDF Units, it would become increasingly likely Dwvion too, will break from Marik-leadership of the Marik-Star League.

RECOMMENDATION: House Kurita's stance against Marik-Star League is most curious. Potential to realize either coordinated or incidental advantage in harmony with DCMS defensive efforts should be explored immediately. Significant combat advantage could be realized if CSJ and other Clan forces were to surge liberation operations during the height of Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery activity in response to future Marik-SL aggression.

Work also needs to be conducted to revisit OPN REVIVAL BASELINE ASSUMPTIONS, as the House Kurita realignment against the Marik-Star League in effect brings this forward-seeing and Battle-Tested Inner Sphere House into PERFECT alignment with Clan stated intent and mission under OPN REVIVAL (http://www.sarna.net...i/Clan_Invasion) every effort must be made to explore future areas of (if not cooperation per se then) mutual interest. Areas of unexpected though significant synergies should be anticipated and the possibility of improved relations should be explored,

*scratches head*

Are the tags on the worlds taken by Marik associated with the nSL?

If not, it would seem that certain members of this forum might be accused of... inaccuracies in their reporting.

Tell us the truth. Was the dropship you were in really shot down, or was it the one *next* to you?

Impressive journalism Prussian Havoc

It will be curious if the Jags and Drags decide to become bed partners rather than the bears and vikings of lore.

Is anyone really stupid enough to believe this? I mean, really, that is some serious Tokyo Rose level crackpottery. Either you're selling your own members' intelligence short, or you are just more cognizant than I am of how dumb Clanner jackboot drones really are, because anyone with 2 brain cells to rub together should be able to see when obvious propaganda is obvious.

Also, the fraggles can attest that Marik units have been running defensive ops on their planets for a week now. That the other houses are too busy wagging their {Richard Cameron} at each other to help is not evidence of "Marik duplicity" (lawl) but rather the power of nerd e-peen measuring contests.

It is very much propaganda. It is written as such. The voice in my head that was a 50's radio news reporter with a high nasally voice read this to me and I found it hilarious.

he is reporting from the smoke jaguar viewpoint, a view which sees the nSL as a threat and thus "The Bad Guy" does it matter if the units in Marik were not in the nSL? no because Marik is in the nSL and thus is part of "The Bad Guy" DC rejected the nSL and thus is not part of "The Bad Guy" but still not "the good guy" because they are not Smoke Jaguar

propaganda is all a matter of perspective. I for one enjoyed the read. GG Prussian
