How do we pick a faction for the event. Sure as hell my Devil Dogs won't be playing Liao. We just happened to have the contract at the moment. We will be playing as Wolves or not at all. Do I need to send a ticket into support?

the clan you are in right now is the side that you'd be playing for. After your contract with Liao ends you can join the wolves then play your butts off. You need to play more matches as a wolf than as a Liao to be counted on the clan side. They already said that support can't help you with contracts.

1. Don't listen to those mercs weeping for a contract reset.
Their arguments are:

• We don't care for C-Bills, we just enjoy playing with Clans.
  
• We are with IS currently only because of C-Bills.
  
• Now we want to be on the Clan (= winning) side (because of C-Bills obviously)

Filthy greedy hypocritical ******** - nothing like I've read about Wolf Dragoons or Gray Death Legion in the novels.

2. My misery is that I had free time yesterday, but the event started 1 AM 06.0.6. - we played few 12 man drops and then went to sleep 1h before the event. Probably I won't manage to participate in the event, at least as much as I would like to.

[Chuanhao]

If I just want to play with as little Wait times as possible, and I don't care too much about winning, I will form a one man IS tribe and fight for the IS?

This means Easy Mode! You could probably do this in an UrbanMech!

We can't really do that as clanners. Give the filthy clanners their urbanmechs first. #UrbieIIC

That's cool. We all have our reasons for picking factions. When it comes to Tukayyid, it's the Clans vs. the traitorous Comstar. The Houses aren't even involved. They weren't even consulted before Comstar made a deal with the clans, and that was AFTER operation Scorpion. So, no way in hell will we play for the inner sphere for Tukayyid - on moral grounds. And as we are working for LOKI, we have reasons to want Clan Wolf to rise to the top of the heap. Better to have a Warden Clan as ilClan than a crusader, believe me.

Wrong battle. This is the FIRST battle after the second invasion wave where the truce line was first defined. his is way before Taskforce Serpent and operation bulldog. According to the novels the second truce was just after the civil war ended.

- Well I nearly forgot how bad IS mech are VS Clan mech... Especially when all clan mech have ECM and BP to counter IS ECM, full power, better speed and range. Most of battle ends with 7 \ 48, 17 \ 48 or 0 \ 23 in siege mode. IS have nothing to put in front to win. Skill have nothing when your enemy have more survivability (thanks to XL engine) and better damage. Half of IS XL users die in second hoping that Clans play bad. Half try to ambush, but die quick because most of mech have too short range to fight and even in short range Clan have better damage.
Worst of it - I have played many games and every time I see disconnected pilots only in IS team. We not have worse mech, we also have 4 or 8 mech less than Clan!! IS side have not less power mech but also less mech at all!
And more of it - 3 games of 4 put well planned unit group of Clan vs pug IS... It's a final nail in a Faction Play coffin.
I wish IS vs IS and Clan vs Clan come back to Faction Play again because right now it pretty useless to play with no chance to win.
I love IS mech and IS faction... but not when you have no chance to win at all.
Even if you good pilot... DC, bad mech, not optimal loadup of team, weaker build than clan is - all that make victory never happen.

Now I want a Clan Urbanmech IIC.

[XX BURT XX]

Well Ithought I will give a first try to the Faction Play, tried only quick public games, but when I checked the progress ... 10% vs 90%Clans looks like a massacre.

- You call it too soft... It's burning hell. In my team mech die before they even see enemy covered under ECM and loose side torso (which instant death for everyone XL user) 19 play no win at all.

[Arkaiko]

another AWFULL clan sided event...

PGI: "heeey, clan got advantage over IS, lets make a "civil war" patch to fix that, but first, lets feed our vip clan players with an event before that patch"

months ago i just stoped buying stuff from PGI, this event make my point of why, if civil war patch goes wrong too i will just uninstall this crap

I'm about 50/50 right now but you gotta carry hard.

[Sagamore]

Would PGI consider giving the losing faction 10 extra tons for the drop deck at the conclusion of the day? Call it "reinforcements" or whatever. I don't see the IS winning a single day. It could make the event more dynamic.

[BEARDOOM]

Could we get some AMMUNITION SUPPLY POINT for faction gamplay? I love ballistics, like many, but we don't play faction becouse oure ballistic mech dry out.

No, Eject and drop like the rest of us.

Hello everybody. I'm sorry that I complain, but the event is a joke. Now it's 10 o'clock in the morning in Germany and I see the clans are already at 97% . This has nothing to do with the battle for Tukayyid (And yes, I'm aware that the battle went on for several weeks). If I am wrong with your opinion, you can improve me. And sorry for my bad English

Gotta sign with a house or clan........ Hmmm, NOPE for the third year running.......

You had it for a while PGI, but you ****** it when you AGAIN FORCED us mercs to sign up and wave flags.
