One day when I was a child, my mom arbitrarily decided that I was too old to be playing with action figures. She rounded up all the toys and made me sell them at a garage sale. Because I had so many though, some managed to escape her sweep.
Yesterday I was visiting my brother for our family's Christmas get together and his wife tells me that they stumbled across a bin of old toys. I was shown the bin and recognized them all. The survivors from childhood that escaped the purge. This picture is of a few of those toys, 2 of which are relevant to here. Battletech survived the purge.

>>97217319
Yeah, I had 2 Exosquad figures as well. Not pictured is the black guy that wears the jump jet battle armor. I had that toy too. Loved the show Exosquad. Showed how you can have a kid's show that's also mature.
>>
>>97217357
I also never understood why contractions are bad but combined words like batchall are ok. The clans are stupid like that.
>>
>>97217273
I gave all mine up and I regret it. Now if Mom didn't give my legos away I'd be retired ... only semi joking.

It's strange while we play with minis adults pay more for toys than kids, I know the wording is bad but you know what I mean.

I have a batman and a chaos marine next to an enforcer on my work desk. No one looks at that oddly.I guess the wife pic balances it out.

Is there a list of what clans had enclaves on what worlds in the Republic of the Sphere?

I know like the Nova Cats had one on Ozawa, because that’s where Kev Rosse founded the Spirit Cats.

>>97217741
They should have been killed off for good, bringing them back just felt like lazy fan service, and I don't even say that out of spite. It was just like "uhh no guys that group some people is still around for real...buy more minis now"

>>97217757

It was. Same with nu-GDL.

Their resurrected shambling corpse is now a slave to the dezgra ilclan, the clan has been desecrated and their past khans would be absolutely livid.
>>
>>97217741
Never got the seething, the novels and sourcebooks suggested the annihilation had been incomplete and a bunch of Jaguars escaped. Their resurrection was only ever a matter of time. It's like people didn't read any of that stuff.
>>
>>97217829
Like all clans in the 3rd “Star League” they’re just paying lip service to the wolves. The big players though are the white birb alliance who have the most powerful naval assets and just murdered the Liao chancellor via orbital strike. And the sea foxes who have Alaric’s inbred ass in debt for eternity and that was before they bankrolled the counteroffensive against the capellans. Even when they lose the Liao “win”.

Green birbs might ironically be the most loyal clan to the wolf league
>>
>>97217621
No. You have to pull it from the old Dossiers and Novels. It sucks, but that's how it goes.

There's at least 1 wolf one (where Raddick was from) and 1 bear one (where that one Bear Paladin was from).
>>
>>97217868
>lip service
Their existence depends on clan wolf and they have already been deployed in combat by the ilclan in the ilclan's interests, fighting in some of the most underhanded ways a clanner could imagine.
>>
>>97217816
New GDL at least makes in universe business sense. "Hey, we aren't in the military anymore, why don't we resurrect the company our great grandparents ran? It's good branding."

I just wish the stories had been good.
>>
>>97217909
Wolves are spread thin. The fact that they need others to do their fighting or black ops for them means they need the other clans more than the other clans need them. When has outsourcing your “dirty” blackmail worthy jobs ever worked out for anybody?
>>
>>97217951
Smoke jaguar is currently too small to operate independently, they'd be entirely at the mercy of the victors if clan wolf died. They have no reasonable alternative to serving clan wolf if they want to keep living at all and as spooks.

The stupid thing is they lived over 50 years as the Fidelis and not as clanners. Their culture was dead, and Paul Moon being alive instead of that new kid taking over like at the end of Surrender Your Dreams was a severe unwarranted retcon. Funny thing, though. Pardoe of all people pushed that before he got sacked. We can actually lay the blame squarely on him for both the Fidelis and the Jag comback as 2 completely separate events over a decade apart.
>>
What priority level is the Amphigean light assault group? I thought they were like chain gangs v2 non-samurai warriors and subsequently low on the totem pole but from my reading they're at least somewhat respected
>>
>>97217972
Worse than academy units. Better than Arkabs.
>>
>>97217972
IIRC they're technically mercs (they started out as the security force for the Amphigean Agriculture corporation) but on permanent contract to the DCMS, so they might be buying a lot of their own equipment instead of getting it from the DCMS quartermaster.

>play dragon's gambit DLC
>apparently there are like three japanese people in the entire DCMS and two of them are just names that show up in mission briefings
>the rest of combine space is nothing but rednecks, muslims and scandinavians who all have last names and accents that correlate to current terra
>also ronda snord has the same voice over as every generic female pilot
Its even more jarring because the actual DCMS mooks have a diluted future Japanese accenting to their lines when you blow up their mechs. Did they go as far out of their way as possible to not have anyone sound remotely asian for the guys with mechs like the fucking Hatomoto-chi?
