We're supposed to be in the Civil War, right?

As far as I know, this period refers to the great war between Innersphere houses, which also enlisted some clans.

So why are we still Clans Vs. IS?

I think it's time to mix it up.. here's what needs to be done:

1) Introduce Clan Wolf in Exile, and Ghost Bear Dominion. Remove Smoke Jaguars. Do great events for each of these. (like Operation Bulldog and War of Refusal.)

2) After this, form new FP fronts, along with lore-base Civil war fronts.


3) Allow mixed dropdecks. Set dropdeck tonnages to 240 or 265 (whatever you think is better) and allow us to mix clan and IS mechs in dropdecks..

This does not mean mixing tech in loadouts, only mixing mechs in dropdecks.

no.

the only ones who benefit from that are IS players.

there is no benefit for clans to allow IS to use clan mechs


I mean you could allow mixed teams though. like clan players could fight on the same team as either davion or steiner.

but davion or steiner players should not be able to use clan mechs.

only clans should use clan mechs and only IS should use IS mechs. but allow both clan and IS players to be on the same team in civil war matches.


that would be the best compromise.

You are kidding right many IS mechs are better than clans and you get the IS tech etc.. As someone who owns mechs from both factions i'd be all for this.

Since the win at all costs units decided to kill the mode, you may as well turn it into QP with the bonus lp points. Time to start doing things to extend the lifespan of the game.
