All of these sound pretty interesting, especially the Clan Blood Spirit one. However:

A For intense pirate action.

Quick and dirty count has it as:

A - 10
B - 7
C - 6
D - 5

Slight lead for pirate mayhem, but still anyone's game. I'm curious to see if it'll stay this even for the length of the vote.

They're all pretty solid options, really. I'm not surprised it's fairly close.

I feel like pirates will finally have their day in the sun, but voting C because I want it to at least get a fluff update to see what's going on. Sounds like interesting stuff that may involve clanners getting smart and abandoning their dumbass ways.

A, because pirate designs are heeeeelariously wonky and bizarre.

D for scoundrels and Crescent Hawks.

Though I'd be happy seeing any of these, I think.

I do like the sound of D but A is the clear winner in terms of fun-factor potential.

It certainly is if you like causing property damage to poorly-constructed hovels!

GhostofJohnMuir: Aug 14, 2014; anime is not good

C this version of the Blood Spirits seems pretty interesting.

# ? Oct 3, 2014 05:38

Holybat: Dec 22, 2006; I made this while you were asleep.

Tough call between all of the scenarios and I really want to know what the Blood Spirits are up to, but at the same time I want to see crazy designs taking the field, so voting A.

# ? Oct 3, 2014 06:19

sheep-dodger: Feb 21, 2013

I'm going to vote C, since I want to see what Blood Spirits are all about.

We've ignored the pirates for too long. While B and C are kinda interesting, they're not mystery boxes.

Voting A

thunderbolt: Jun 13, 2006; 3025 and loving it.

Tough call
Pirates are neat.
A three way cluster gently caress would be awsome.
I need to know what the blood spirts new super solider program is.
But the Crescent Hawks are what introduced me to BattleTech.

A vote for C is a vote for Clan Blood Spirit to be actually interesting.

Clan Blood Spirit sounds like they might be training a bunch of Freebirths to be Mechwarriors or something. Which is crazy counter-clan thinking, and also fascinating. C
