Hey all,

I'm curious. I was always partial to the Wilson's Hussars in the Mercenaries book. They were like this hard luck, nearly pirate company with maybe 8 functional mechs.

It seemed like the perfect starting point for a mercenary campaign for one thing.

Plus the artwork represents them as an almost a Mad Max style bunch with no uniforms of any kind.

Does this merc unit exist as a MWO unit? Anyone into the idea?

All canon units and their names will not be usable by the player base once unit organization and metagame is in effect by decree of PGI. It does not mean you can not create a unit (company/battalion) that is associated with them but your unit's name can not similar.

Basically PGI is keeping a tight rein on all canon House, Clan and merc names.

Plus by 3059 only five of their 'mechs are operational.
