25 matches :)

You can see the PXH's distinctive right arm barrrels poking out from behind the Achievements panel.

PXH-1 is basiced, with 16,771,531 cash-in-hand to see a man about not one, but two mechs.

Woots.

Congratulations! I will now extend you an invitation to the Order of the Black Phoenix unit (BLPH) and bestow upon you the rank of Knight Aspirant! You may now begin the Quest to Attain Knighthood, may the Black Phoenix guide you on your journey.

News:
  • Started on the Roster / Archive, still lots of info to add and formatting to do, but I am tired and it will probably be a day or two still.
  • Rank clarification is on hold for a couple days, mainly because I am still deciding exactly what I want the criteria for becoming a Senior Knight to be.

NOTICE!: I recommend that all members of the Order save any GXP they have earned for the new skill tree.

Knight Aspirant Pavlo, I apologize for not sending you an invite while you were on, but there should be one waiting for you the next time you log in.

I recognize your apology Kinght Commander Aspirant, though with respect I do not recognize a need for the same.

I thank you for extending me the invitation to join your number as a Knight Aspirant.

May the spirit of the Black Pheonix continue to guide your own journey as well.

News:

- I will be signing BLPH up for a one week contract with the IS faction that is currently in the most need of the service of the Order (paying the most) so that we can try a few scouting drops this weekend.

I encourage more alliterative names

Razor Rex
Sir Sirious
Hawker Hurricane

....more!


What about consonance, where the sounds are repeated among the words, but unlike in alliteration, they aren't necessarily in the stressed syllables?

I'm ... asking for a friend. >.>

You can name your Order pilot whatever you want (within PGI's naming restrictions) and you will still be accepted into the Order, so it is up to you how silly, or serious you want your name to look / sound.

News Update:

- Unfortunately my home internet will be off for about a week, so I won't be on MWO during that time. This means that the faction contract will be delayed by a week. Also, I will be unable to invite people into the unit, or promote anyone until I am back on, but I will do my best to continue to process new recruits from my cellphone. I will use my time away to prepare a decent-sized update for the main OP and the Roster / Archive, so it will be ready to post when I get back.


May the spirit of the Black Phoenix guide you!

Just because I have a pathological need to remain part of the conversation, here is an update on my (rather glacial) progress:

Every little bit counts. Anyway, you will be making more progress than I will over the next six days, so just look at it that way. Also, the stock PHX-1 is difficult, because it does not have any lostech and you are playing against fully optimized Mechs and Clan Tech.

25 Games with a stock PXH-1 complete. It has been quite the challenge. I found the MGs are amazingly useful, especially when the heat gauge is threatening me Posted Image
