Incoming fire has the right of way.

The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire.

Always remember that your weapon was built by the lowest bidder.

cold1: Look, I don't think it should be a sin, just for saying "ilClan".

[Everyone gasps]

Site admin: You're only making it worse for yourself!

cold1: Making it worse? How can it be worse? IlClan! ilClan! ilClan!

Site admin: I'm warning you! If you say "ilClan" one more time (gets hit with rock) RIGHT! Who did that? Come on, who did it?

Forumites: He did! He did! (suddenly obscuring their IPs) He! He did! He!

Site admin: Was it you?

Random Forumite: Yes.

Site admin: Right...

Random Forumite: Well you did say "ilClan. "

[Other forumites throws rocks at the luckless forumite]

Site admin: STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT RIGHT NOW! STOP IT! All right, no one is to stone _anyone_ until I blow this whistle. Even... and I want to make this absolutely clear... even if they do say, "ilClan. "

[Crowd stones the Site admin ...]

Sounds about right! LOL

Historical: 1st Succession War, huh?

I'm all for it. I'll totally buy it.

The question is - will this be enough to get the grognardiest of 3025 grognards to spend actual money on product again, or will it be no good by default because it's not made by FASA?

Only time will tell, but I'd really hope it's the former.

I'm less worried about Herb these days and more worried about the dude that laid out the WoR and a lot of the Jihad story lines.

Herb might nuke you, but Ben will nuke you, gas you, ortillery you, bio-weapon you, create secret cabals on you, turn you into a lab rat, create a virus designed just to kill YOU, obliterate your favorite faction/planet/mech/character, and then create some fuzzy new clan creature to name a new clan after.



I miss Herb! ;D

I'm not a grognard, I'm the opposite of Grognard.  I think the IS factions are not that fun. 

I'll buy it cuz it should be EPIC in its scope of destruction.

It's long over due

So... what you're saying is that Ben is the George R.R. Martin of Battletech?

The guy that worries me the most is the one who nukes a planet, forgetting that there's a unit on there that they might wanna save for later. Then shrugs and takes it all in stride after he realizes his mistake  O0

Look, dude, when you are a real mechwarrior you don't need to get all dressed up in cooling suits and cool helmets to work on your mech. You just strip down to your 1980s panties and crop top vest and start wrenchin' it.
