You might be a lyran if you think that a Hauptmann is a scout mech and not the military rank of your company commander.

You are Lyran if you cannot stand the poverty around you (Draconis Combine, Free World league) and try to bring em enlightment but they resist....

You might be a Lyran if you are watching the IGN assault mech trailer on repeat, screaming "Blue fist of death!" at the screen. :)

That could get messy if his ride is a Locust. :)

Might be Lyran if your parents conceived you in the cockpit of an Atlas.

but the Highlander and the Scots are in the Lyran <insert weekly whichever> and it's my favourite......

You know you are a Lyran when you learned to pilot a Commando before learning to walk.

How did you know I watch that trailer repeatedly while screaming "Blue Fist of Death" at the screen?

(Starts looking for hidden cameras)

Is there something wrong with that?

ROFLMAO

and to continue on,

You might be a Lyran if your national symbol, the Steiner Fist, looks suspiciously like it came off an Atlas. You know us merchants, we're too cheap to spring for something original when we can buy a shinny new assault Mech.

Recon - (4) Awesomes
Assualt - (4) Atlases
Command - (4) Highlanders

Sound about right..?


I'd tend to go with all of them being Atlases, but that's just me.

... If you were in your Atlas when suddenly, out of no where, a Kuritan Jenner runs past you, leaving you dumbstruck just long enough for it to unload some rockets and lasers into your back and run away.

I dont't know any respectable commander that would send only 1 Awesome as a scout mech. Why use one when you can use a company, that is also your assault team, that engages through recon by fire!

You might be a Lyran if you take your father's Pillager out for Sunday drives.

Regardless, if your father can afford a 'Mech that costs over 22 Million C-Bills for you to do your Sunday drives, then he might be a Lyran too :)

*Smack* Ares are no longer considered Canon!
Now, you might be a Lyran if your Atlas gets damaged and you patch it up with C-Bills.

You might be Lyran if your kid begs you for the keys to the Atlas to go on a date.

You might be Lyran if your coolant is actually pure champagne.

You might be Lyran if you refuse to fight clanners, purely on the grounds that their mechs are filthy and need to be washed.

You might be Lyran if you think a jenner is an exotic Kuritan delicacy.

You might be Lyran if you swapped out a rack of LRM ammo on your mech and replaced it with sausages.

You might be Lyran if Davion immediately brings to mind images of shields made entirely of meat.
