You have to dig for it, but the truth is out there to be discovered: The Wars of Reaving are the direct result of a perfectly executed deep cover campaign by MI5.

This is an explanation I'm going to have to see...

There may be other universes based on all sorts of other principles, but ours seems to be based on war and games."

The Fox may be dead but he's still pulling the strings...  Though sounds more an MI4 or 6 operation though... as an invasion isn't really an "insurgency" by a long shot, but being retentive about it...

Yeah, I think I read that somewhere in a side note in the WoR book. Written by some guy named M. Stackpole.....weird.

The secret your all missing is that Tommy Marik isn't the true Master, he's a proxy to hide the identity for the true Master-Hanse Davion! The only man Comstar and later WoB knew would be the man to lead them against the Invading Clans!

Ah, but if Sun-Tzu is actually a Davion, that means that the Master succeeded in bringing the Capellan Confederation in line with himself!

I don't think it would hurt.  Try not to overindulge though.  Alchohol and 'Mechs are not a good combination.  Come to think of it, alchohol and ACs, combat grade lasers, SRMs, LRMs, PPCs and combat weaponry in general are not good combinations.  Alchohol and this thread, yeah, that can work.   ;D

We need to put this thread back on track.  The original purpose of Operation Revival was to conquer the DC's planets housing TastyKake's factories in search of the perfect Krimpet.  And how the failure to do so prompted the home Clans to reave such failures from the Clans.

 I would postulate that the original vision of the Nova Cat Khan was not of them joining with the second star league but it was in fact a vision of where the holy planet that housed the Lauded Tastykake factory and through trickery and subtle manipulations through games of soccer and coin tosses they have become the IlClan by finding the planet  and its valuable vaunted wharehouses and manufactories of the sacred pastery.
