Heh.  That's debatable.  (I mean, really, Charlemagne Steiner?  You can do better than a bastardized Alaric rip-off.)

well I had first considered a different name, Constantine, but felt that name was to closely tied to the Roman Empire (and therefore more appropriate to the Marians), so I went with Charlamagne


and to be honest I hadnt even consdiered it as an Alaric rip-off (as Im not that familiar with the Dark Age and the characters in it), I went with a more historical rip-off....specifically, Charlamagne (Ive seen both spellings) ala the Holy Roman Empire

I'd say "you would me, sir", but I'd be lying.  :P

Be careful.  You are in a faction with me, and if you try to go around fixing all the spelling errors you see, you'll not have time for anything else  ;)

I gave up paying to close attention to yours long before you joined the A-Team....the process was giving me migraines


that and I treasure my insanity to much to lose it

Iron Mongoose

Probably for the best.  If you were sane, you'd realize that you'd been working with me and Dis all this time  ;D

And don't get me started on your lack of capitalization/punctuation, either. 

Believe me when I say that I can out-asshat you in this department. ;)

That's neither entirely true nor saying much. It's not saying much because the war-focused culture of the Clans is anathema to the people of the Outworlds Alliance. They'd no sooner stand for it than sell themselves into slavery, prostitute their daughters, or murder their neighbors. Outworlders feel very strongly about things like these and Clanners celebrate everything they despise.

And yet the Raven Alliance stands.  So this really doesn't matter much, because TPTB obviously don't agree with you on this point.

Horse Alliance does not follow from Raven Alliance. Again, the "more compatible" bit is highly debatable, and whatever odd conditions lead to the Raven Alliance in canon certainly weren't present here.

I'm not saying it can't happen or should be stopped. I'm saying it's damned peculiar and it shouldn't work very well.

Yeah, and ComStar, WoB, and the Dragoons should have had enough mutual antipathy that forming the Core Alliance/Terran Hegemony would also be considered canonically impossible and should have fallen to internal squabbling after about two turns.

But this is the FGC, where (almost) anything goes.  I mean, we have an elf for a First Lord for crying out loud.

Wait, you mean we're using BattleRun rules? That definitely has an impact on the geopolitical landscape. It also explains the trolls. ;)

Of note to all who may want to participate in the vote for a new SLDF CG.

I had suggested to the GMs that Andrew Redburn would be the acting CG while Victor is gone.  Even emailed WM briefly on this, and he confirmed that from his viewpoint, Redburn would have been the senior divisional commander, so a natural stand-in.

While it would be highly amusing to actually have DeSummersVille as the acting CG, and I see it's allready tickled some funnybones (in fact, I'm laughing my arse off), the guy was only a regimental commander a couple of years ago, and has only commanded a brigade. 

This cycles SLDF orders have only ever been to realign the force to current events, since those who were supposed to do them since the C37 orders, never did.  C41 should see a bit more of a positive deployment by them.

Fatebringer, not trying to spoil your fun on Biota, but I have to ask how losses of .75 FP could amount to .25 of Damage control?

Just checkin'.

I would really love to get more RP done in the Game, but I cant.. thats kinda sad. Hope to get a GC talk in, though..

And Deathrider: Seems the Lyrans will be back.. Cant say I look forward to see my small Clan shattered by your forces.  :-\

But welcome back.

Fatebringer

My bad :P I looked at the wrong side :P Thanks for the info. Will update.
