"Spared from the ravages of the Clan invasion, the Free Worlds League flourished as an arms supplier to the rest of the Inner Sphere. Captain-General Thomas Marik patiently guided the Free Worlds League Military through a long-overdue reformation as his rivals battled the invaders. Bolstered by the League's powerful military-industrial complex, the FWLM now stands as one of the largest and best-equipped forces in the Inner Sphere."

Looks like we will rise to greater position of strength and prominence in the Inner Sphere, not long after the Clan War heats up.

Not bad given Thomas is not a 'blood' Marik, but a true Marik none-the-less, like us all!

Don't worry, protect our own borders, let the other houses fight eachother.

We'll come out ontop.

Howdy,

By Yarmor's ghost, how dare anyone tell these fables!

Clans invading, huh, what is that?

Clans coming to attack our great House's from the outer rims?

Come come now, this sound more like fantasy writen by writers than anything else!

No one would ever dare invade any great house, our forces would crush them back faster than a Davion running from battle!

Captain General Thomas Marik is not a true Marik?!?

Our Captain General Thomas Marik's bloodline is so pure that is has made him "Bred for war" than anyone other leader!

Does anyone have proof of these lies, this almost sound like Davion drivel!

I would not doubt that the Prince is behind these lies!

What's next, someone claiming that the mercenary Morgan Kell was really a late 20th century writer named Michael Stackpole and he played MPBT EGA in the 1990s?

We live in the 31st century and not a fantasy world!

Whom so ever would dare tell these fantasies needs to be at the end of a Naval PPC without a blind fold!

Sir, no need to suddenly jump.

Never really paid attention to history in school.

"Hit by the Jihad" is not the right way to put it considering the fact Jihad completely and utterly erased FWL from existence. :D

Howdy,


Do not mind me, am an old EGAer and my remarks were meant in RPing jest for other EGAers.

But I do wonder if Morgan Kell is thinking of joining us again in this new version?

I was under the impression that WoB supporters were a minority of the FWL.

THe WOB was not popular with most of the FWL's population and definitely not with most military! But that is a discussion for another decade!

I would like to point an interesting fact of lore as well......Kenyan Marik was the first one to break out the Nukes in the First Succession War. So much for the vaunted honor of Marik. (Knights= Personal mech force of the not-marik marik)

Pragmatically, what else is new. You must insure victory.
