Clan Wolf Vs Clan Jade Falcon

We wish to fight true warriors for the conquest of the Inner Sphere. Let us test the Fangs of the Wolf against the Talons of the Falcon, for all can see it is we two who vie for dominance.

They're going to be quick fire for now... we have to come up with a better automated system for this.. but until we pull that trigger.. the short fire events will be the norm for now.


Guess that is fine. Though I would like to know if we get notified a week or so ahead of the event?

I think that would help to tell people about it in the game (after all very few read the forums) and try to get them excited.

Nice to see some attention on the CW front - a little water and sunlight everyday goes a long way to growing the garden.

In that spirit I will contribute the following: Wolf Vrs Falcon - you know this showdown has to happen.

FRR Vrs Wolf, Bear and the Jaguar. FRR needs to recover lost territory and in recent weeks they have been mobilizing and training the necessary troop numbers to do so. Perhaps now is a good time to put this progress to the test.

Single day assignments are not going to be enough, starting and building upon the momentum of the thing - a sustained approach is needed for real results.

Smoke Jaguar against Kurita

Kajikazawa needs to fall.


Roger that.

Their ranks are not filled with the warriors that they should be but honorless skags instead. Kill them all!

They're posting here because this thread is too little too late. Suggestion that Kurita fight Davion.

its not to late, its never to late to make things better.

Of course Wolf vs Falcon is at the top of my list,since they did block off routes to the eastern innersphere.

To the NKVA members: I'm removing your posts because they have nothing to do with what is being requested here.

This is not a soap box for you to tell my why you think CW is dead. We are working on revitalizing that with CW Phase 3 and beyond. There are PLENTY of other threads on the subject and I have been reading them. This particular thread is about which faction would like to fight a specific other faction.. that is all. This is not about moderating you unfairly. A request was made, specific information is being sought.. and your non-information posts are not helping you or your cause on making CW better.


Paul, totally lost interest in CW... struggling to even get a 4-man running...

I'd like to see MARIK+LIAO+KURITA vs STEINER+DAVION

Definitely would be great to see some Davion vs kurita and/or Liao, Liao vs Davion and or marik, marik vs Liao and/ Steiner. Those were where a lot of the action was in lore even after the clans, and even during the Jihad era where WoB worked those old rivalries and fear of invasion against their enemies. Obviously we got a major following for wolf vs falcon - in fact since we had Tukayyid not that long ago (relatively speaking), a Refusal War event, in my opinion would also be something nice to see as well. Time that with a major kurita vs jaguar event shortly after and even with MWO diverging from mainstream CBT time lines and lore, we could still kind of follow along.

Just my thoughts tho. Feel free to discuss amongst yourselves.

I'm sorry but anyone saying there is ANY grudge between Liao and anyone else is thinking of the tabletop and not of this game. The loyalists of Liao have a bigger grudge against each other than anyone else. You would need a Liao civil war event before you could let them face a real faction. This way you could implement a bandit kingdom below Liao to give them a regular third faction to attack and a feeder for lone wolfs, definitely bringing a lot of action into CW ..

Steiner vs Marik

As the Free Worlds League said, "Never trust a Capellan, but always shoot a Lyran on sight." Those are fighting words and I want to see how House Marik lives up to that comment.


I think either Marik v Davion or Steiner

Those friggin' Green Chickens flew over the fence again and are running around in our yard... time for us Steiners to shoo them away again.... those should be our planets!


PS: Steiner vs Jade Falcons, just to be clear :)

I would also vote for Steiner vs. CJF.

The best CW battles I have had were against Steiner units like Tamar Jäger (?), 12DG and the infamous Steiner allstars.

The most popular rivals...

JadeFalcon vs Wolf
Kurita vs SmokeJag
Liao vs Davion
Steiner vs Marik
FRR vs TeddyBear

and the winners are....

Falcon / Wolf PUGS and a vast majority of their units are by far the worst in the entire game. If Wolf pulls this one off it will be with numbers not skill.

Kurita / This one could really go either way... I'll give the edge Kurita considering SmokeJags recent inactivity

Davion / I would have called this one a toss up a few months back when Liao actually had a population. Now it seems like Davion is fielding better units while Liao has almost none. Out of the back 3 houses (no clan borders) Davion is clearly the strongest.

Steiner / They win this by default considering there is no one in Mark to fight. While I am kind of on the fence about this match up being an actual "grudge". There was some bad blood there early on in Beta1

FRR / Both factions have decent units but lets be honest the Bear has been a shadow of its former self since Beta2



Honestly it would be interesting to have the factions bid for Mercs to spice things up a bit.

Hi Paul, Even though this is Battletech Alt-Universe #2, where Clan Wolf has conquered and owned Terra for the last year. I would very much like to see Clan Wolf vs Comstar grudge match. (Great therapy for the MWO player base to take out their frustrations with PGI.)

I realize from a practical player base that there are not enough PGI "Comstar" staff, but as Comstar, you could recruit a premier Merc group like MS to help you represent. Even rewarding that group with a Crusader Unseen mech or MC for their help.

The grudge battle would be fought on Terra.

I would love to see PGI's vision of USA Earth in the year 3051. Maybe even fight it out in the remoteness of Australia, or the Polar Caps (if they still exist.)


I though MS was kinda a joke group. True they have some good players, but I always thought they just won battles through sheer numbers. PGI would be better off with Night's Scorn or 228.

I would like a Kurita vs Davion event. :)

Steiner vs Marik is big in lore, but in CW Steiner really didn't want to fight Marik, they would rather fight the Clans. Getting a match with Steiner really felt like a puppy trying to get an old dog to play with him. ;)

Kurita VS Davion!

On another note, these events are typically over in the US timeslot OR are unsuccessful. Pretty much excludes oceanic and EU players. They need to persist through all the timezones.

Double sided events would also be better - instead of all the mercenaries choosing the same side, they can divide between the two and balance the population.
