Turkey shoot? Not Raven shoot? Vulture shoot, even; unless those aren't in the IS yet.

Honestly, though, yesterday we got a warning of impending doom via awesomeness, today its entertainment news?

Welcome to the InnerSphere, where the Periphery is always in trouble, and it's always in good taste to make fun of the Liao's!

Couldn't find anything really on Ingrid Liao, but I did find information about the Great Lee Turkey Shoot.

Overwhelmed... by Sparrowhawks? :D

Sounds like AFFS propaganda - you sure they didn't just nuke 'em in space?

Yesterday wasn't a warning.. You one of those crazy people that think aliens have invaded the periphery???

Yesterday was an editorial debunking those rumors, because strange stuff happening in the periphery is the status quo.. No news there...

Not aliens, GHOSTS! COMMIE GHOSTS who don't know they're DEAD!

I think people forget that it was the intelligence community giving the Davions advance warning that led to the victory. It permitted the Davions to choose where the intercept would take place.

The value of the Sparrowhawk here may be overrated as they engaged heavier fighters who were assigned escort duties and were tied to defending dropships.

Sparrowhawks are nasty in Aerospace. Big slow fighters get torn up by faster ones because if you can get behind a fighter and threshhold it's armor, you can kill it without taking off all the armor. Speed is more important in Aerospace than in the ground game.

Try playing aerospace, it's very different from the battletech TT ground game. Dogfighting matters.
