Hustlin Floh posted:Why isn't there a multi-post history of Battle Magic, the premier Inner Sphere mercenary unit until their betrayal and destruction at first Harlech? You call this a Battletech thread? False, the premier mercenary unit is of course, McCarron's Armored Cavalry.  Also I don't know if I agree with the OP's description of ComStar as Scientologists when 1: they are 100% cribbing off the Catholic Church because Blake or Toyama was probably a big fan of the Foundation series and 2: Scientologists or "Scientos" are alive and well all the way to the year 3150.

Atlas Hugged posted:I think he means the rights to make an adaptation of the pen-and-paper game so that there'd be a Battletech game that played like Crusader Kings. I'd be down. I got into the setting because I like giant robots, but I stayed into it because I also like dysfunctional feudal backstabbing.

SirFozzie posted:Yes.. the chaos reach was the basis of the republic of the sphere. The Chaos March, yeah. Though, there were also a bunch of worlds from the Federated Suns, Lyran Commonwealth, and Draconis Combine that were never part of the Chaos March and were generously donated to the nascent Republic, mostly because the planets in question were formerly occupied by the Word of Blake, badly damaged during occupation and subsequent liberation, and they really weren't interested in paying the cost of reconstruction. The Capellans and the splintered Free Worlds League also had their words "volunteered" to the Republic even though neither of them wanted that and were more than happy to rebuild their own crap, thank you very much. All of this caused considerable problems when the Blackout happened, the FWL and Capellans were still angry about worlds taken by a state they didn't consider legitimate, and even the former backers of the Republic saw how nice and shiny their former territories were looking again after about eighty years of painful reconstruction, and decided now was a good time to walk back on a few treaties.

They're now part of the clan protectorate.. nomunally they are house Marik but they trade with everyone. Best Clan.
