Agreed, I just enjoy all the back stories in regards to Clans, since i have been playing mw/bt stuff of and on for 25yrs.

Speaking of which, have been rereading many of the older btech novels. It's got an interesting tidbit about the Kerensky bloodname. Ulric comments that only 13 individuals have ever worn it, and that he waited until it was available instead of taking other chances at other bloodnames.

They repeatedly say that only 25 people can have the bloodname, so why aren't there more Kerensky's then 13?

Maybe the Kerensky bloodhouse has been reaved a couple of times?

Neg, Ulric is talking about the prestiege of his bloodline Keresnky, one of the 25. It is meaning the Warriors who have earned that Keresnky Bloodname in the past have all lead long lives, and done GREAT things. Ulric could have tried for any available Keresnky bloodname when they came available but he waited until the warrior who had his current Keresnky bloodname to be killed in battle and he chose to fight for that one.

Each of the 25 bloodnames associated with one of the original 800 Warriors of Operation Klondike has a history and a certain pedigree. Some belong to warriors who have done very little and are not fought for as hard. IIRC the Malthus bloodname that was to the Malthus that had the Jade Falcon, Falcon Guards get crushed bi Kai Allard Liao had no one but a single warrior compete for it as it was so dishonored and shamed no one else would go for it, so it was easily won by default if i am correct. The warrior was older and wanted a bloodname did not care at that time, so he went for it, even to his potential dishonor.

I will not vote in that poll , there are missing some of the crusaders Star Adder ( my favorite ) ,Hell's Horses , Ice Hellion , Fire Mandrill , Snow Raven and Blood Spirit - they are crusaders and need to be in the list .

Regardless of being Crusaders, they are not among the Invading Clans.

Someone is just asking for a beating.........ok so had a thought, in game it would be lovely for the devs to create a unit of their own with all the fancy toys and it would be a task and a half to defeat them...Garth, I challenge you to make this happen
