We are a mercenary company fighting in the name of the Great Father and his chosen. Eagerly awaiting the return of the clans to join our brothers in battle. For now, we must make due with those opportunities and alliances as the Inner Sphere allows. Seyla!
Although the Black XIII is ostensibly under the command of Clan Wolf, it has adopted members from numerous other clan allies. Even as competition between our fellow clanners breeds strength, unity binds us all together in our greatest goal; the reclamation of the Inner Sphere in the name of Kerensky and the Star League.
BLACK XIII is a group of friends and friendly mechwarriors who might best be described as "casual competitive". That is to say, we are out to play our best, work together as a team, and respect each other and our opponents. We value tactics, strategy, skill, and practice. But we attempt to do so not at the expense of fun and immersion in the rich Battletech universe.
The members of BLACK XIII are long time fans of Battletech lore, and thrive on our nostalgia. If you can relate to a history of all-nighter tabletop Battletech, Mechwarrior 2, Collectible Card Games, and more... Then you should find you fit right in!
Prime candidates should also find that they can match well within these basic guidelines:
-Age 18+
-Headset or Mic
-Speak English
-Average ~5 hours of game time per week minimum (Not to strictly enforced)
-Primarily focused around US Eastern Time Zone / GMT -5:00 (This is the most flexible requirement, as there have been many late night gaming sessions known to happen. The more our group grows too, the easier it will be to meet everyone's schedule needs.)
We are still in the process of building our infrastructure and individual responsibilities within our group. As such, application is pretty laid back for the time being. A website and community outside of the MWO forums is presently a work-in-progress too.
If you're interested in joining up with a group of like-minded gamers to have fun playing Mechwarrior and sharing in the Battletech hobby, then you can apply by going to our website and submitting an application to join.
BLACK XIII Official Website & Membership Application
Feel free to include as much information as you'd like. The idea is to get to know each other and have fun, after-all. I'll reply by email to everyone that gets an official acceptance with farther details.
Thanks for considering BLACK XIII, and hope to hear from some of you soon!
BLACK XIII Group (Still up and running, but we're migrating to the website.)

. I also read as much of the BT novels as i could get my hands on. I am a hard core gamer who usually spends like 5 hours a day if i can playing games and on my days off i tend to double that time so long as nothing gets in the way. I just bought the legendary founders package and my beta status is pending. I have a cordless headset cause I want to never be away from the action. Im kind of a voice chatting geek cause i have Teamspeak mumble skype and i have xfire as well. I dont have ventrillo installed at the moment but i can if i need to. I prefer to be on voice chat when i am playing anyways cause IMO it enhances the game when you can socialize while your playing.
