The definitive merc organization circa 3025… ladies and gents, “the Pony Soldiers,” of the ELH. I bought the game before the novels, and the whole light against the darkness vibe just sat well with me. Plus, they worked for noble House Davion, holding the line against the vile House Liao and evil House Kurita. Wolf’s Dragoons you say. Let’s not forget, those nasty Wolf’s Dragoons just had to be up to no good… and ah-ha; they weren’t even real mercs and AND AND they were spies for Space Nazis! Knew it the whole time. Not at all happy with how ELH went out though, nope not at all.
Later once I read, “Decision at Thunder Rift,” I was GDL all the way. Oh, the feels. Grayson you have to save Lori! Hurry! It was safe to say I WAS the target demographic for that novel. Not at all happy with how GDL went out as well either, nope not at all.
Then Battleforce, and the Lone Wolves, because they were the most unique merc command at the time of their introduction, due to their composition and organization. Basically, how I envisioned large mercs outfits formed and operated circa 3025. But, they're dead too...
Finally, Hansen’s Roughriders, for longevity sake; I loved the cover art for the first Battleforce box. Plus, they’ve not been killed off.
ELH forever.
