It's weird how, despite having about three or four times the Liao numbers, they keep popping up in here to reassure themselves that they're going to win.

And, they surprisingly leave Kurita forums alone. Wonder why? Still, I'm having fun messing with them in your forums.

Can you please try again? Maybe you could use some grammar and punctuation to make a legible sentence, or is that just the Federated Suns education showing?

Same. Civil war was boring. Super-Victor is/was boring too.

I don't feel the need to justify my statements.

[Draken X]

Damn straight, I'm getting sick of the might of the Fed-Suns, especially in the post-4th succession war and pre-FedCom civil war, because they are literally being a galactic police. They think they have the rights to play as a superheroes so that they could make the others to think that they are the good guys; but ironically, it was Hanse Davion who started the 4th succession war against the Capellan as his wedding present. What a joke...

Good guys? Give me a break...

FedSuns is just like the Western powers in real-life. Heh... Bunch of glory hounds and deluded wannabes fed by the propaganda lies of the House Davion. They were trying their best to portray House Liao as the generic bad guys, while they themselves are the generic good guys. It's like persuading people hate Russia and China in real-life. That's right! Capellan is portrayed as Russia and China in real-life, and this is one of the main reason why the rabid pro-Davion fanatics hurl their hates on House Liao.

Yeah, trying to replace people with doubles is a terrible thing that no one should ever do.

I can do nothing but laugh and groan at the same time.

Is there a place to tell how large each faction is?

[Lord Ikka]

There was a group called Comstar looking it up, but I don't know if they've continued to track the faction growth/size.

[Alexander Steel]

I'm not surprised at the Fedsuns being the highest, just from the fact that the majority of the novels paint them as the heroes of the game. Michael Stackpole in particular is probably responsible for 50% of the Cool Factor of the Fed Suns.

Kurita I would imagine to be pretty strong as well from the all things Japanese are cool factor.

House Liao I would guess to be next because of anti-Davion backlash as well as people like running the bad guys and the novels paint them pretty much as that. 100%. Also this is the best time in a buy low sell high time to join this house as the novels have them on the rise for the next 15 or so years.

Steiner I would guess as next because when it comes to a mech battle game they really are described in the game material as ***** commanders who didn't realize that you can't scout well in ultra heavy mechs. Who only manage to get good around 3028 or so because the Davion commanders kept defeating them over and over in their wargames which finally started to teach them how to actually use their army correctly. Another example of Davions are the heroes of the game from the writing.

FRR and Marik would come in last just because with one group while cool everybody knows they get hammered to pieces by the clans, and the other group is just boring and doesn't get hardly any play in the novels. Also not surprising as these are groups that neither join up with the Davions or fight against them much so they don't get as much screen time in the novels. Marik's big screen time moment in the early year stuff was having their leader give away a huge chunk of his realm because of a Davion/Steiner feint into his territory.

you spelled our name wrong... it is Liao not Laio

Everyone not on the side of the protagonist of a certain viewpoint is the bad guy. Liao is not the bad guy, we are the antagonists to those who would tell us how we should obey them.

[Lord Ikka]

Last I saw, Comstar put the House ranks as Davion, Steiner, Kurita, Liao, Marik, then FRR. The three largest house had over a thousand member lead over Liao, and the last three were all fairly close.

Looking forward to carving up the Fed-Suns with you guys of House Liao. Plenty of Davion-Steiner Mechwarriors for our Houses to kill together!

We have them surrounded.

LoL, we aren't the ones who started the thread with Fed-Sun's in the title.

I'm from Kathil, will always have a special spot in which I hold my vitriol towards those Capellan scum. But don't worry having transferred to Robinson recently, I'll be happy to slag your Mech to kingdom come.

Fear not Capellan Confederation, the Mighty Federated Suns have more than enough soldiers to deal with you, though we won't really bother sending many of them to deal with the weakest of the Inner Sphere houses, maybe we should send the Magistracy of Canopus to deal with you, they might be more your speed.

I wonder how long it will be til we reach robinson. Liao and kurita should choose a planet in the fed suns that we are equally far away from, then we can see who conquers it first.

[Dragorath]

Wanna some cheese?

[dal10]

that would require that i am whining, which i am not. I am just commenting on how we should have a goal to split up our conquest of the federated suns.
