Wed. Dec 28, 3048: Reporter Kori Chiang, who recently published an article in Underground Sian, “Is the Sixth MAC real?”, has gone missing.

What's the Sixth MAC, and why is it missing?

No, Really... I don't know much BT/ MW lore.

I believe this is "Baxter's Brawlers" which is was the 6th Regiment of Big Mac (McCarron's Armored Cavalry).

Davion wiped them out not long after they were formed. I believe it was a Davion Counter attack on the world of Menke where the 6th was garrisoned. Ghost can probably tell us more. I'm just going on memory here.

McCarron's Armored Cavalry formed a sixth regiment in 3037. Titled "Baxter's Brawlers" (as they were commanded by Marcus Baxter during the War of 3039), they were later destroyed in a Davion counterattack towards the end of that war. As the mercenary unit has a long history of employment with the Capellan Confederation, I am not surprised at this retaliation against a reporter investigating the MAC's sixth battalion.

I would assume it's Maskirovka black bag operation, can't let
any information go for free, eh CapCon?

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why having a free press is important.

Well this, and knowing what not to wear during the winter ball season on Tharkad. But mostly this.
