Any unit that allows me to satisfy my irrational hatred of everything Jade Falcon by going toe-to-toe with those deviants!

The Jade Failures deserve our ire, however. Our Gauss rounds as well.

Had the most fun running a campaign where the PC's were members of the 10th Donegal Guards when I was overseas in Iraq. All of my players were pretty new, learning the game with level 1 3025 rules on MegaMek - when the Clans invaded they had no idea what was going on, they ended up getting cut off from their unit, having to steal OmniMechs and sneak through Clan lines before regrouping with their unit as it was evacuating and regrouping only to have the planet they were on invaded by the Clans again. Finally the PCs were bondsmen of the Jade Falcons and ended up fighting in the Refusal War before we stopped playing because Guitar Hero: Metallica came out and everyone was too interested playing that to play Battletech - we didn't have enough time between missions to play two games at once. :)

Well, Being I started out in the Hsien Hotheads, I guess i'll always have a warm spot for that unit.

Still, I do like my current unit

In no particular order:
  • Winfield's Brigade (because even we need some light/fast units)
  • Stealthy Tigers (ditto, even though they technically don't work for us anymore by 3049)
  • All four Skye Rangers regiments (mostly the 4th, though the 17th gets props for surviving its encounter with Clan Jade Falcon--if just barely)
  • 8th Donegal Guards (for helping hold the line when Skye was invaded during the Third Succession War)
  • 2nd Donegal Guards (Caesar Steiner's old unit; he showed that "social general" doesn't necessarily have to mean "incompetent")
  • 9th Lyran Regulars (pirate-hunting regiment originally made up of defectors from the Rim Worlds Republic)
I may add to this when I think of more.

Well with the King Crabs' low profile, one might consider that a scouting asset also ;D

Third Donegal Guards--"The Justice Brigade"

Because having a military unit that honors the Supreme Court makes me feel warm and fuzzy.



Posted Image
36th Lyran Guards--"Air Surfers"

Because they jump.


Posted Image

2nd Donegal Guards--"The Unwearied Second"

Because they win.


Notable Runners-Up:

Posted Image
The 15th Lyran Guards--"The Death or Glory Boys"

Because fatalism is a Lyran's best friend.

Just because.

2nd Donegal Guards RCT: The Unwearied Second





A poster with class. The 2nd Donegal are of course the best Lyran unit.

10th Lyran Guards - Enjoy the time we spend in your service.

Ditto, always a fan of the 10th, sadly the jihad made them no more :P

I still fly their colors on the table top.
