[Howling Mad Murdock]

Well I guess I should post here too then

My Pilots name is Howling Mad Murdoch... i'm sure you can work out why but if not I will attempt to explain. My Pilot style is probably a mix of Raw ability (although i'm rather out of practice) and I might be partial to taking the odd risk for time to time.... ok... maybe a bit more often than I should

I've played BattleTech and Mechwarrior over the years since the board game and I have also read a load of the books (that was a long time ago though and i've just downloaded the ebooks to read them again)

I love the Mechwarrior universe and I cant wait to get a chance to play this game and fight with honour with you chaps (and ladies?) under the flag of House Liao!

In my spare time I design games, watch a lot of films and listen to music in the realm of FUNK! .... R.I.P MCA of the Beasties.

[hydrix]

Greetings,

My pilot's name is Hydrix, I usually prefer trapping other mech's in a small group.

Played most Mech games over the years, and a lot of on line strategy games. Now plan to move from WOT to here, as i think this will be much more fun.

Hope we get a house TS3 channel .

GL,HF. Hydrix.

[feetjai]

Pilot name: feetjai
Experience:
Played a few mechwarrior games, usually play solo, like the Fafnir and it's 2 Gaus rifles =)
But with MWO I like to try all styles: scout, scout/assualt, assualt, etc

Suggestion:
- Use free TS servers in combination with a txt based schedule to roster pilots into smaller groups.
Because a 200 user TS servers costs money.... Saves you more money to buy lasers to toast opponents

Personally I had my share my insecureness, it has been a long time period. But it's behind me now. My power and hope comes from Jesus. And I don't need many things any longer. On topic: We share onemore thing at least: house Liao is going to crush the opposition. The brotherhood shall prevail. =)

Patience, grasshopper, is the key to the Scout role. :-)

[Cendent]

Hi all, Crazy to see so many names here I remember from 10 years ago.

Using the handle Cendent now, use to be Crimson.

Can't wait to drop a few rounds with everyone

[Beazle]

I'm Beazle.

You can call me Beaz (pronounced like the little buggers that sting you and die)

I also usually do a lot of damage and then die. That's not why i have the name.

I generally flip flop back and forth from super serious team player mode, to ijustwannblowdemallupandstompondaburninbits mode without any of those pesky gray areas in between.

I play Liao because i really REALLY hate pretty much everything they did to the Davions in the fiction, and i love nothing more than to crush those who like it.

I've been a fan of the BT universe since the early 90's, with long breaks from playing to scope out the DMZ and blow stuff up in the sand IRL for years at a time.

You want any more info, you'll have to buy me dinner.

Adridos: I believe Beaz is saying they're out to crush any fanboys of the 'yay, we're the good guys, all the other houses only exist to show how good we are!' brigade.

As opposed to those who recognise their house has flaws just like any other, but support it nevertheless. Who they'll defeat with respect on a battlefield, rather than contemptuously.

I know, but making a bit of fun from him doesn't hurt anyone.

[Youngblood]

Youngblood. Capellan. Tactics more like a Lyran or Regulan. Skinny and bitter like a string of licorice. Raised on MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries and Japanese pop culture. Can read a few runes. Tabletop fanatic. 'Mech customization addict. Likes 'em young and moé. Sleepless MMO Gamer. Blunt instrument. Overly complicated blunt instrument.

I'll be starting off with House alignment. Depending on how things develop after release, I may be looking for a casual Merc Corps later.

This, and the fact that the made the Davions look like military geniuses by reinventing things that have been common sense for anybody with an ounce of knowledge since back when a lil' guy in China was writing his words on bunches of sticks bound together with string.

I love the Battletech game, and Universe (up to clan invasion, then i'm kinda Meh on it.), and i loved a lot of the fiction that had to deal with single planets or units, but the stuff on an "epic" scale was pure garbage. I'm talking about once the books were about wars instead of battles, and every character was either a House Lord, or the best in the universe at something or other. I mean, common, they actually wrote into the fiction that a couple of guys managed to figure out a way to use some sort of MAGIC to make their mechs un-hitable.

I could rant all day, but that would require me to look back at those books to make sure i've got my facts straight, and i just ate.

[Kithmar]

Hey everyone. I've spent quite a while just reading the forum but never posting. Guess it makes sence my first post is introducing myself to all my Capellan brothers and sisters.

Pilot name is Kithmar, ‘allo!

I started playing MW2:Mercs and have played everything since, (including the MechAssaults and MechCommander 1 & 2), up to MW4 expacs. I never got around to playing MW:LL. While I’ve played the games a lot my PVP experience is very limited having only really played against friends when MW3:Pirates Moon was fresh and new. I’ve played at least a dozen games of the table top using basic rules, nothing past tech found in 3050.

I’ve read the Kerensky Trilogy, Jade Phoenix and just about every book I could find that involves the Capellan Confederation. Sadly, their names escape me. I’m currently reading the Horus Heresy series for Warhammer 40k.

I chose House Liao after reading the data for each House on Sarna net. The Capellan Confederation ideals are closest to my own ideas for a perfect society, it’s something I can support and picture myself fighting for.

At the moment I’m not sure which role I would prefer to take on, though I am leaning towards being a scout. I hope to play a few games before really deciding.

On a side note,
I haven’t seen anything about a team speak or ventrillo server for us. Depending on how involved I get I might be willing to shell out the cash to run a Vent server.

Oh, on a second side note,
Youngblood, I laughed so hard when I saw your signature, it’s awesome.

Thanks guys!

[MurderXDEATH]

Hey yall, MurderX here, I played Battletech on gamestorm, and loved mechs ever since. Played every mech game after, really pleased to see this becoming reality. Played Liao in BT, so I stay loyal, hope to see you all on the field.

[Daidachi]

Horus Heresy has come out with some really good fiction Kith, and some that's downright naff. Looking forward to Nightfall when Aaron Dembski-Bowden gets down to writing it.
