When was the Irian event?
« on: 19 October 2016, 10:29:31 »
Trying to figure out when the Irian event happened in the different releases.  I cannot remember what was out at the time it happened and I am trying to construct the cluster/battalions involved in TP Irian.

The Faction War event (i.e., the fighting on Irian) began in October 2003, which was two months after the release of Liao Incursion.

Sounds right, I was not sure if it was that or Counter Assault and every thing I could find looking it up last night was referring to TP Irian.

Some of the prizes were from DFA and others were from LI.

There's a small e-book on the Battle of Irian, a Turning Points I believe.  It's pretty good.

Quote from: Worktroll
Face it - MW:DA had, for its run, massively greater commercial success than BattleTech's ever had. Over two million click-base minis - want to guess where the number of BT minis comes in? I'd guess on the order of a few percent of that. While BT has survived for 30 years, we've never had the same number of players at any point. The pity was that unlike BT, MW:DA ended up being run by businessmen, not game fanatics.

I have the book, I was wondering when it happened in the expansion releases- sort of let me know who died or what might have been destroyed before the TP.
