Is there a final # on the outcome of the D-Sharks fleet post Jihad/Reaving yet ?

I'm wondering how many warships they managed to keep.

i have a question about DA foxes. in rending the character sena rodriguez says she's from alpha khanate, one known for being different. alpha khanate IIRC was not one of khanate's listed. has this ever been figured out?
"Warriors, not war machines, are the backbone of the Hell's Horses. While others worship the BattleMech as the ultimate weapon, the men and women of this Clan see even this awesome piece of technology as the tool it is. We have held to this philosophy since the days of our first Khan, who knew that the value of the common soldier far outstripped the brute force of the BattleMech. It is one reason our Clan possesses fewer mechs than most, and has led many to underestimate our fierceness and courage. Our survival against all challengers when others have fallen proves the folly of such arrogance, and testifies to the wisdom of our founders."

It's probably nothing more than the khanates are officially named Alpha, Beta, etc. but the other names are what they're usually known by.

well. If you want to go with a reasonable logical explanation.

Actually, every Khanate refers to themselves as the Alpha Khanate.  This is a policy enacted by management to keep company morale high:  if ever Khanate thinks they're the best, they're going to go out there and keep doing business.  Admittedly, it has not been as popular as Thong Thursday.

Ah trust the diamond foxes to end up making 'Casual Friday' seem like a black tie affair.

Yes, but do you really want to see the gas bill to head an entire warship with everyone in just thongs?

I just thought they shut down the heat sinks and went for a 80's rock concert style laser light show.

Hey, one man's trash is another man's treasure that you can sell at a ridiculous mark-up!

Or you end up with a dropship with each deck filled to the ceiling with "awesome deals waiting for the right customer."

In that case, the Nova Cats need all the stuff they can get.

I just made myself sad.

Here is my reaction on the Diamond Shark parts of FM:3085.

Good job with rebuilding. (or was those galaxies just somewhere in the deep periphery?) I am especially glad to see a Spina Galaxy back on the roster, even if I would have preferred the Rho over Lambda (and Zeta over Sigma).

It is also worth noting that the Gamma has changed the gemstone of its Skate from Emerald to Jasper.

I'm stealing the SeaFox avatar for now.    O0

As far as important things the SeaFoxes have done (someone had asked earlier in the thread), well, they were the clan that developed the modern Iron Womb, so their role in Clan history is pretty huge for that alone.

Hope they have an interesting role in the future.  As information vendors as well as merchants of finer war machines/accessories, they fill a role as well as perpetuate it when the situation demands it.
