Greetings all,

Great news about the IGP buy back, now PGI has the reigns in hand and able to proceed as they wanted to.

- Expect to see quite a bit of content in the next few months.
And not just cash grabs that IGP were so fond of.

Greetings all,

Another week end of challenges complete, not much to show for it, but it's something to do together with the 57th while we wait for the next stage of CW to arrive.
- We also follow along with the latest from RSI news, Star Citizen.
- As well as the upcoming new features about to arrive in STO.
- ED has just moved to Beta 2.x and it looks amazing.

But for big stompy robots, this is the place to go. Camaraderie and fun team play, no matter what way the battle goes.

Great group of guys

Greetings all,

Week-end challenge nearly over.

Expecting lots of the older designed Mech's to be brought back into play with the introduction of the Quirks system.
- Tuesday's Patch should see some Mediums and Heavy's, that were 'hanger queens', returning to the Battlefield.
- Designs that just needed a little care and attention to bring them where they needed to be.
- Some of these chassis quirks will turn these Mech's from 'O, it's just one of those', to 'Crap, I better deal with that'.

Can't wait to see how the designs are going to be used.

Stop into our 57th Ts and say hello, join us in a few games. (we'll also be on the Na Ts s look there too.)

Greetings all,

Patch day 4 Nov. and we see the IS quirks arrive.

- All those Mech's that had been parked, may yet see the Battlefield and be a lot more dangerous.

We should be seeing quite a few more mediums fielded, brawling is about to get real again.
- Come join us as we work through the quirks system and see where the Clans Mech's get a surprise.

Greetings all,

Week-end challenge complete and pausing for 'Remembrance Day', Salute, to those that serve and those that gave the ultimate service for there Country and Freedom.

If you haven't seen it yet there's a leaked 10 minute preview of the Terrace Swamp map, all seen through a Mech chassis that is actually impossible to build, and ridiculous weapons and JumpJets load-outs.
See here: https://www.youtube....e&v=ZcRGR7y85P4

Join us for some fun match's in whatever weight or chassis you'd like,

You'll find the info for our own Team Speak there also.

Greetings all,

Well we have the new Nov18 patch and a new map.

- Additional Mech's and a couple of Hero's, fix's to the weapons groups being reset and that constant blinking from the friends chat fixed.
- Map looks really interesting and the locations where combat can happen is 'almost anywhere'!

Join us on the Na Ts server for some fun games through the week, find us under the 57th title.
- Or stop over at our web page, http:///www.57th.net/ , that takes you to our front loading page, there's quite a bit past that.
- You'll find info for some of the games we participate in as well as links to our own Ts server address.

Greetings all,

Well we've had two events arrive, the 'Black Friday', and the 'Double Xp' week-end.
- A surprise patch delivered day's early, an some new Mech's.

All's going well and the match's appear to be actually paying enough that mastering some brand new chassis may only take a few hours of play. The maps also appear to be in a better rotation since Viridian Bog was reduced in it's appearance presence.
- Watching quite a few massed teams pushing full force with similar weapons load-outs.
- The Dire dual gauss is really getting tiring as we are seeing 3 at a time arrive in the scene. With attached flankers running 2 ac5's and PPC's, so tiring.

We have 100's of chassis to field Companies with, but still seeing the same 6 or 7 variants. This should be somewhat interesting when 'Invasion' mode arrives and Pilots need to have 4 different chassis standing ready. We'll see.

Join us for some fun drops a the 57th, either on the ComStar Na Ts server or through our own 57th server.
- See the Ts link at our 57th 'Portal' page, http://www.57th.net/

Greetings all,

December is here, and with it a flurry of activity from PGI with Mech's presented and news of big things to arrive.
- The loyalty King Crab is upon us, and the 2nd wave of Clan Mech's about to hit the field.

Greetings all,

Well it's arrived, the component for MWO that has been discussed and talked about for years.

Community Warfare Beta arrived on the 11 Dec. 2014 to the surprise of most.
- It was listed as only a 'Hot Patch' but the Team at PPGI kept the secret till the last minute.
- Even the nay Sayers are stepping up to have a look.
See the link for the new CW web page: https://mwomercs.com/cw

Selecting your Faction and for how long will be somewhat critical for the start of warfare,
- Loyalty Points and how the Pilot progress's is now an element the Unit and Pilots need to keep in mind.

Russ has stated that the additional rewards for staying with Factions may be cheaper access to Faction specific Mech's and systems, as well as rewards for bring the Factions own produced chassis. We'll see how that balanced some of the drops.

The new enhanced Inner Sphere map looks so much better than the original 'place holder', actively seeing a conflict location legend helps find the areas where contracts are offered. And the details of the Planets is what we need to know before our 4 DropShip Mech's are selected. Good work on that PGI.

Join us on Ts or visit our starting web page here, http://www.57th.net/ , it has all the info for TS and how to meet up with our members for some fun MWO action.

Greetings all,

The 57th is currently aligned with Wolf Clan and proceeding with 'Operation Revival'.

- As per most of the 57th Pilots we do have quite a few IS mech's in stables,
- Many Pilots exist as original Founders, Phoenix, and some both Invasion Packs.
- But most have Clan Mech's also, or are in the process of attaining more.

This does not mean that we have left the IS for strictly Clan actions, no indeed, this was a chosen action to familiarise our Pilots with these Mech chassis and tactics that they use. Part of the knowledge base of 'Know your Enemy'.

We, the 57th Squadron, have and always were dedicated to functioning similar to the Iconic unit 'The Wolf's Dragoons'. And thus need to operate elements of both Clan and IS Tech chassis to round out our Pilots experience levels.
- At this time, we function as Clan operatives and you are welcome to join our trials and game play.
- Find us at http://www.57th.net/ for some fun and challenging match's in Community Warfare.
(contact info and Ts info located at our start portal intro page, our main site has much more)

Aim True and Run Cool,
