Destruction of House Ma-Tsu Kai
« on: 04 June 2012, 14:53:38 »
Page 9 of Field Report: CCAF states that House Ijori avenged the destruction of House Ma-Tsu Kai at the hands of the Word of Blake's 13th Division on Ningpo in 3077. However, the Jihad timeline on page 59 of Jihad: Final Reckoning indicates that House Ma-Tsu Kai was virtually destroyed by Blakist Pocket WarShips in an abortive assault on Pleione on the 2nd of May 3078 - nine months after the battle on Ningpo.

Jihad Hot Spots: Terra records House Ma-Tsu Kai taking terrible casualties on Ningpo on page 43, but also mentions them being rendered combat effective in May 3078 on Pleione on page 73. That would suggest that either one of the two records in JHS:T is wrong, or perhaps that Ma-Tsu Kai rebuilt after Ningpo only to be lost at Pleione, but that would suggest that FR: CCAF is incorrect.

Which of the sources is actually accurate, if any?

It's more interesting than optimal, and therefore better. O0 - Weirdo

The Field Report is in error.

My notes show:

Code: [Select]
House Ma-Tsu Kai RIP RIP RIP Badly hurt on Ningpo (Aug 77), rebuilt strength and destroyed on Pleione (78)
