Untill it's Thanks Giving or if they take a crap on my car or mech.

Well it certainly is offensive, but that is simply because of how horrible it sounds.

They should of gone with a quick blast of some tyco drums instead of that goof troop clip that sounds like it came from Breakfast at Tiffanys.

I'm not sure why the warhorn would be. But the Rising Sun theme on the Yen Lo Wang is certainly offensive to a lot of people, particularly Koreans.

Those of you who follow MMA religiously will remember the episode where welterweight champion GSP entered the stadium with a rising sun-motif on his gi and immediately received a public request from Korean fighter Chan Sung Jung (aka Korean Zombie) to stop showing that kind of racist imagery in public. Apparently, stuff happened during WW2 and it wasn't all good.

They're just mad because the Koreans never became a faction in Battletech like the Japanese did.

I heard Kim Jong-Un had his own version of battletech lore written that has North Korea as supreme overlord of all cosmos with the other factions worshiping him as a God.

Have you ever heard about a north korean tv series for children called "squirrel and hedgehog"?
It is like that, but with cute animal characters killing each other and giving their live for 'flower hill'.

Well this is battletech so it'd be the bird people from that one book...

WE DO NOT SPEAK OF THAT BOOK.

no seriously, it's literally considered a non-canon source.

Actually and I quote :
Because of the sentient aliens featured in Far Country, the novel's canonicity is sometimes questioned. However, it does meet the current criteria for Canon and BattleTech Line Developer Herbert A. Beas has confirmed its canonicity, with the caveat that the authors and developers deliberately ignore the Tetatae and shall not revisit them. The impact on the BattleTech universe is minor, given that the Tetatae only (theoretically) exist in a place that has no connections to the known universe whatsoever.

So it is cannon but it's like that relative we never speak of and never gets invited to weddings

What about Breakfast at Tiffany's? As I recall we both kind of liked it...

Mexican warhorn mariachi sound

PGI could be making a lot of money by putting in amusing warhorn sounds. I'd personally like a Price is Right failure sound or the sound of children laughing.

Price of Right failure would be freaking awesome...

Road Runner "meep meep" would also be one id like to have for fast lights.
