We don't hate or dislike the IS...we love it. That's the reason why we come back...

In other words, "I cannot argue your points, so I'm just going to post another wikipedia article and hope you go away." Cute. Carry on, wiki-warrior.

Killing 100 million people is hardly what one would call a Mary Sue. And that is not even taking into account the millions of loyal Kurita and Liao citizens who are forced to rot in Davion Dungeons because they refuse to become vassals and slaves! The political prisoners, who's only crime is staying loyal to the nation on which they are born, is not the sort of thing the Davion media talks about. In fact, Hanse Davion cannot name a single Capellan or Kuritan citizen he has killed in his wars of aggression, or any, of the tens of millions, he has locked away in his dungeons.

Well, guess I have to update my reasons to dislike the IS!

[Daneel Hazen]

The Clan vision is disciplined progress through unity; division is channeled into ritual and resolved there. The IS is run by a hodgepodge of selfish motivations and is too corrupt to be allowed to continue to preside over the decline. It must be saved from itself.

Well, yes and no. Fortifications can deny the enemy (or you) key advantageous points of strategic value. They give the defenders immense advantages, however, any good commander, attacking defensive positions can negate these advantages with tactical maneuvering. However the thing is, that commanders on the defensive end also, can make tactical decisions that negate the offensive commander's maneuvers. In the end, it comes down to a small number of factors. So someone could make the assumption, fortifications mean nothing in war, and be not exactly right, but not exactly wrong. It's a matter of opinion (fortifications can help, but are not deciding factors case in point, WWII, Atlantic Wall).

Why do you dislike the IS?

Apart from them being freebirth scum with no honour whatsoever - no reason.

[Narcissistic Martyr]

I don't dislike the IS, in fact I like it so much I want to conquer it and rebuild the star league in our image and thus ending the brutal succession wars forever.

My reason is because they're all a Byzantine clusterfu*ks modeled after Europe (I despise the entire continent), Japan, and China, with all the retardation of the United States, driven by hereditary monarchies that have all the inbreeding and entitlement you'd expect from inbred royalty.

The Inner Sphere can be best summed up as a bunch of fools fighting countless wars over the nothing that is left, merely to be the one to say they get to rule over the biggest ruin in a scrapheap of a galaxy.

Still, I like them a good deal better than the communist douchebombs that run the Clans.

HEY, I saw you scoping out my pile of ruins. Get out of here before I invade the crap out of your- Too late, whoopsie ^^.

^I get to say that. IS is badass; you wouldn't want to live there, but good fun the odd weekend if you can afford a decent seat.
