Given the recent marriage of Hanse Davion and Melissa Steiner, despite the "year", it seems as though we're skipping over the war of 3039 and the Fourth Succession War, and going straight to the Clan Invasion.

The only time there was "unknown fighting in the periphery, with a level of devastation heretofore unknown", that was the Clans before the IS knew they existed.

The recent mini-campaigns in Faction Warfare have been very popular. No doubt they'll be continuing in the same vein. Their recent podcast even implied that they were hoping to be able to do something other than the standard "tug of war", and even have conditionally progressive campaigns, where the results of one day's fighting affect the next day's missions, etc. Though I expect that level of immersion to be at least a year away, and possibly never, given the potential playerbase collapse after the release of MechWarrior 5...

Did anyone else think that grainy img kinda looked like a mech with a big round melon like a crusader?
Or is that just wishful thinking on my part? :/

look to me like a dropship or a dropship getting destroyed or the effects of some kind of nuclear blast. but I couldn't make out anything that looked like a mech.

hopefully its a long event coming and not some 24 hour event. i'm getting dragged to Yellowstone Friday- Sun...… wait dose that mean the Yellowstone volcano is going to blow?

Is it just me or does that just look like a really BIG bong hit? Now that would add some immersion to Faction.

The Periphery refers to the region of space surrounding the Inner Sphere. The border between "the Periphery" and the "Inner Sphere" is generally 450 - 550 light years away from Terra. The Periphery is surrounded by the Deep Periphery, though the borders for this region of space are more nebulous. The Periphery is littered with small colonies and a handful of interstellar nations, legitimate or not.
