Who are you willing to take contracts from?

[Ozymandious]

Revolutions are best if you can get paid twice . I forget but I think a good example might be the good the bad and the ugly where Clint works for everybody in town.

 

[CycKath]

Whoever pays.

If a civil war erupts in the Free Worlds League....avoid it like the plague!

So every other day?

 

[MeiSooHaityu]

We are in the business of fighting wars, and making cash...and a business is a boom'n

 

[TripleStrengthMisnomer]

So every other day?

That's not fair. Sometimes there is peace and stability for 3 days in the FWL.

 

[Q_res]

I'll let you know who I won't work for, just as soon as I can afford the luxury of being that picky.

Anton Marik was a rebel fighting against the rightful ruler of the Free Worlds League Janos Marik. Wolf dragoons should have took a contract with the government not some rebel who ended up betraying the dragoons and of course we know how that ended for Anton!

If a civil war erupts in the Free Worlds League....avoid it like the plague!

IIRC, the Dragoons contract at the time was with house Liao. They were loaned to Anton Marik to aid in his attempt to take the (ever shifting) throne of the FWL.

Makes Anton even more of an ******* for what he did, especially since he used non-combatants as pawns in his plan. Honorless

To be honest I'm just glad we can negotiate pay and such. It finally gives me an excuse to do this

Sure...but watch out for the employer. They're not always trustworthy......
"No...just tell them it's a cakewalk and we don't anticipate any resistance"
"Oh.....and tell them no worries, the Jumpship will be waiting at the Nadir jump point for their call on completion of the mission"

 

[Cynwulf]

Except civil war is good for business

Good for the corporations selling arms yup! For mercenaries its a crap shoot. Great if your on the winning side not so much if on the losing side!

Especially on planets with Plutonian orbits.

Always get paid upfront in a civil war and keep the dropship engines warm

 

[Havamal]

This is Battletech .

All the wars are civil wars .

It's all one big, long, off and on, mega-civil war.

 

[Kereminde]

It's all one big, long, off and on, mega-civil war.

But are they fought civilly, with cruelty-free particles from the PPCs? Free-range LRMs?

 

[Ozymandious]

always get the money upfront and keep the dropship engines warm

 

[Havamal]

Your table, your rules.

 

[TripleStrengthMisnomer]

But are they fought civilly, with cruelty-free particles from the PPCs? Free-range LRMs?

Absolutely! Now please remain stationary while we test these new cruelty free PPC particles on your mech. We really think we have the tech perfected.

Oh..and this is 3025 before Artemis and Streak....ALL LRMs are free range except the couple that go astray and actually hit something...

All of our ballistics are also from ethically sourced propellant growers. (What? You totally can grow propellant.. It's a thing)

Science!

 

[TripleStrengthMisnomer]

Science!

You know! I knew it.....I knew you knew....Science....explains Everything...of course there are different abstractions of science bit it's all science even if only loosely so....

Since I do not believe that factionalization is within the scope of the game, though it would be nice if I was incorrect, my answers will change if that comes to fruition.

I will accept contracts from the following factions: Marik, ComStar, Liao, Davion (only because Victor does not exist yet), Taurian Concordat, No Faction, and Magistracy of Canopus. I will also very happily accept contracts that allow me to commit maximum possible harm against Lyran or Aurigian (Directorate or Restoration) forces/interests.

I will not accept contracts from any Aurigian faction, or any contract that attempts to pit me against the FWL.
