B) Operation: Malvoisine (torn between this and D, but it's moot anyways)

That takes us to 14-14, new A and D voters might want to side with either.

I'll never understand why people don't wanna see either Steiner, Davion or Kurita get steamrolled. It would make for such a nice change of pace.

Kurita and Steiner have already been steamrolled pretty bad in this universe. Also if you are voting against those three that probably means you are pro-clan, and we don't like your type around here.

I think that it's been long enough without the clans, so a vote for B Operation Malvoisine.

Hey now, if I'm reading this thread right, there's basically zero chance of Victor Steiner-Davion ever existing so that's a pretty huge point in favor of not hating Davion as much as usual.

Hating the Clans, however, is eternal.

They haven't had a significant loss of territory since 1990. Even the Ghost Bears were originally the derpy, incompetent Clan in the initial invasion. CJF, whenever they take a loss, miraculously does something to recover that has no negative future repercussions.

You're using a badly produced FedCom propaganda video as your evidence? Hilarious annotations notwithstanding.

Realistically, it's likely because they have a lot of appearances in the fiction, so they're the visible face of the more assholish side of the clans. Realistically, there's multiple clans that are worse, such as Smoke Jaguar and Steel Viper, but they're not nearly so visible. And the Jags got smoked in the original history anyways.


Incidentally, I'm voting for C, both because a small unit action would be a good break, and because I'm wondering who they're actually fighting. If it is the Clans, I'm wondering what the hell they're doing so far from the occupation zones.

You must have missed the whole "Huge task force driving straight to the NRWR with the express goal of lopping off Amaris's head." thing. They're going, and the FWL had a choice about how to respond to their demands a good few political votes back.
