MRBC Campaign: 3051 to the Jyhad

I have decided to call it quits for this campaign.

But it is fun with things are at a set pace.

The pace got out of hand, and were not fun for everyone.

My life got in the way and things got out of hand.

The new game will start off in the spring.

Anyone that wants to talk hit me on email or yahoo.

Adios for now.

Hi all Co-mod here. We Mods need to know who is ready for updates on there units and such. also a yahoo group has been made to help with keeping you all supplied

This post is not late. Last week the Co-Mod lost his brother in a car accident. My heart goes out for him. Everyone please take a moment out of your day and leave a kind prayer or words for him. I lost my mother to Breast Cancer in 98 and my friends, mainly my gamer friends were there for me. So I would like to pass this to him.

Falcon - My heart goes out to you and I keep you and your family in prayer. I will be here when you get back.

so please head on over and ask for a invite if you have not received one already

The Hunter-Seekers are withdrawing from the Inner Sphere and into the Periphery. [ooc: i am withdrawing myself from the game. Playing Lineage2...no more time for this. Have fun y'all. )

A unit once known as the Blood Cobras has met with an unfortunate beating at clan hands. They only have a lance of mechwarriors left so they are selling off the surviving excess of mechs. All mechs are as listed...

Masakari - Prime, Engine destroyed (4 Crits), Rt Torso destroyed, Right Arm recovered, both legs have several critical hits, no armor.

Rakshasa - 6 Engine hits, RT Torso destroyed, LT Torso destroyed, both arms recovered

Dasher - Head Destroyed, RL missing (Lost to a mine field) D Variant

Goshawk - TC Destroyed, Both arms destroyed, 2 Engine hits, Head Destroyed

Phoenix Hawk - 3050 3D Version, 3 Engine Hits, Left Torso destroyed, LA not Recovered

Spider - Both legs destroyed, half of jump jets destroyed

Wolverine 7K - Needs a new engine (8 hits suffered) 70 pts of armor damage scattered over the front torsos

Uller A - Center Torso has 1 pt of internal structure remaining, Guass Rifle suffered some damage (2 crits) can be repaired

All mechs start auctions at 6 Million C-bills....(This includes title, transfers, and you paying for the repairs, anything extra goes to help bury the unit's dead and treat the wounded).

Anything else this unit posts for auction will be posted at a later date. The Command Union dropship was the first ship back to Outreach.

just letting everyone know that I have made a mark II version of my Mercenary Excell sheet that tracks just about everything you need to run your merc forces. reply to this if you want me to input your forces. Doom Stars I have yours and will input for you.

It seems that the events of late 3056 and early 3057 have aroused some unhappy covert ops groups across the known universe. Units that have conducted such missions or had run ins with undercover forces will be at the mercy of random attacks from now on.

First victims first:

DT's....the attack is against your rear area and you will receive a lance of fast moving mechs bent on destroying your supplies and kidnapping or killing your support personnel. The mechs in the action are painted orange with no identifiable markings.

RLD's...your attack is coming against the space port with your ships on the ground. Please inform me which of your unit's ships are parked there and get back to me. It seems someone wants to keep you on the planet and has planted explosives on your drives units to make the repair expensive. Also during the first month of the contract any units on patrol will be getting attacked with a force equal in BV to those attacking.

IE Each month for each base make a patrol group, send me the BV listed next to the base, then I will build a force that will attack them.

Doom Stars: As you are leaving the planet the last mech group on the ground gets slammed by a 150% force of BV against them. No ammo has been loaded but damage has been repaired. Get to the dropships now!

Anyone else that is active please post and I will get you in line. The 3 affected units have rolled poorly on the GM chart of doom....

That is all....

For those of you heavy campaigners I needed to prop this list up for your use.

Technology that is lost or destroyed in the current time line:

Null System
Laser Ams
Case II (Damaged but not removed entirely)
Thunderbolt Missile Systems

Any Level 3 and Unbound Equipment is not accessible. It is considered government property and not available for your use.

TSM and all other 3050 weapons or LVL 2 weapons are available for purchase.
No discounts are available unless your characters or unit's have contacts with weapon/part manufacturer's. That is the plan for purchasing equipment. All Level 1 equipment is priced at 80% from normal prices. 3050 mechs/vehicles/etc get a 5% discount if you have a logistics admin with the veteran status and bonus in logistics.

Ammunition that has gone up in price and rarity:

Thunder LRMS (Now 10 times the normal price)
Swarm LRMS (Now 7 times the normal price)

That's it

9/16/07 EDIT: You have to be a member of the forums to get the download there. EMAIL ME or IM ME on yahoo and I will send the file to you!

EDIT: This is a bidding auction for the new meat

First, DL the file from the link. If you cannot email me ASAP so I can work something out for you.

Second, when you find a pilot you like post it here in this format:

PLANET: (There are 7 planets offering pilots)
Number: (Each Pilot has a Number)
RATING: (Green / Reg / Vet / Elite)
Total Contract: (Salary per month + any bonus)
Mech: No if none and if yes Type and model

So the example should look like

Outreach / 27 / Veteran / Crusader 6M / 2800

If you are out bid, then the person outbidding you should list the same information as a REPLY and not a new thread. Remember there are 280 pilots. All of the GM's NPC units are also bidding. So keep that in mind. Put all of your bids in one thread. Thanks for your help!


Here is the link with the XL File. Right now all I could get out is the mechwarriors. I will finish more and put the links here.

I am working on contracts as we speak for new contracts. Talk to you later.  

It is 3057...March 1st.

With that said, back to the campaign. In the news on the Capellan front a recent region close to Davion and Draconis space was a hot bed of activity only to find that their materials had been returned under mysterious circumstances. The Noble has rescinded his contract for finding the pirates as he was satisfied with the majority of mechs and vehicles and space faring vessels returned. The Star League talks have gone public but due to the swift and brutal nature of the joint Marik Liao offensive not all noble parties are willing to come to the table. It will take time for all of them to agree once again on the purpose of such an alliance.

HOT ON THE CLAN FRONT
Mercenaries unit have encountered newer designs that have higher operational capacities than normally encountered Clan material from across all the occupation zones. These Battlemechs and Omnimechs range in size from light to assaults and carry heavier firepower. Units have reported new types of weapons deadlier and stronger than the normal clan armanent. Some of these mechs and weapons have been recovered. If recovered they are fetching nice Cash Bonuses or Salvage exchanges in Combat. Keep Eyes Out.

Contract Postings....
Regions surrounding the core planet Terra have been increasing hostile and combat orientated with assauts, raids, and unprecedented volume in comm activity. Most of the realms are trying to put the "fires" out but are having mixed results.

On the Clan front a lot of Clan forces have removed "The Kid Gloves" are now refusing to accept surrender. Only units with ties to the star league or with an "A+
" honor ranking can make Batchalls to clan forces and get them accepted. Any unit under a "A" or "A+" might want to reconsider aggressive missions against the clans. Otherwise fledging units are staying closer to Garrison duty.  

Hi, I'd love to join.  Can you tell me exactly what is required for me to do?

Ran into this looking for something else.
