    Battletech/Mechwarrior PbP: "Days of the Jackal" [closed]

    Thanks everyone! I was only in for barely four days so it wasn't too long. While I had asked Nadine to post here to notify you of the delay, she felt a bit too awkward to do so. (But she faitfully printed out all of your replies on the IC thread and brought them. :) ) [Unfortunately, things...

    Sorry! Above the lance level, it is generally "3 in 1": 4 mechs in a lance [Infantry: 4 squads in a platoon/lance; Aero: 2 fighters in a lance] 3 lances in a company 3 companies in a battalion 3 battallions in a regiment (and in the glorious days of the Star League: 3 regiments in a division)

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    "Everyone comfortable, drinks and snacks in reach? Good!" "Like I said before, you are on the Gameworld for mercenary work and that is exactly what we have to offer. My old friend here," he indicates the man behind him with a swift movement of his head, "Konrad Bergmann by his name, needs...

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    While almost everyone moves to the conference room, two of the mechwarriors present make their way towards the door back to the hall. One of them, a short man of obvious asian descent, mumbles something about "deceit and deception everywhere" while a taller brunette, whose favorite pastime seems...

    T20: High Law and Low Justice, Part 3

    EEK! Stars! Can't back out now or I'll be the laughing-stock. Well, fewer teeth than Ma, but she's a lot bigger. Wonder if it was such a good idea ... "Ready when you are, Doc." Gulp!

    T20: High Law and Low Justice, Part 3

    Absently Zaed starts kneading one of his ears. "Well, I'll be the first to admit that I don't have the slightest idea about why merchants do the things they do, but converting corsairs into cruise liners seems really strange. I mean, they were built to do a lot of things, yet somehow I don't...

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    You've been eyeing the "Private" door for some time now and the muffled pieces of conversation suddenly erupting from beyond it at least indicate that not everyone behind just died on you. "... not in the last 50 years ..." "... no alternative ..." "... lacking discipline ..." "... teamwork...

    E-mail and PMs Disabled?

    Morrus, is there any way we could the member email addresses back? (Nothing more than the possibility to request them from the profile.) I wanted to contact some players from a PbP, but without the addresses and them getting not a notice if I post on the thread, it might be a bit difficult...

    T20: High Law and Low Justice, Part 3

    Zaedhrarrg presses his body even tighter against the rear wall of the cockpit in his irrational desire to put some more distance between himself and Ktarle, while his wide eyes wildy roam the shuttle looking for something to aid his escape till they lock onto Vyrkris' face. MUST FLEE! Must ...

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    "I hear that some of you are comparing your scores. Don't." The calm voice of the 'hall overseer', who seems to have entered the back rooms a bit behind you, fills the area. "The simulators were set up to allow each of you to choose training courses according to their own training and...

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    The doors open into a set of smaller rooms. Formerly the kitchen and storage area, these have been rebuilt into wide office rooms housing now a small museum and a large conference room. Quite contrary to the front hall the exhibits don't celebrate the Dark Knights cooperative, but tell the...

    Wynter Wolf, sorry for that! :( (As Festy said, I've still to catch up with a lot of things because of some RL family stuff in addition to my computer/internet/boards troubles [tried several times to post here yesterday without success and opening this thread just took over 20 minutes].) As...

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    Dark Knights Compund, Montenegro Soon you've made your way to the back of the hall and the real simulators, either by pure chance (though strangely enough you've seen others being turned away) or after being directed there by a friendly Dark Knight once you had done a few rounds in the...

    Battletech/Mechwarrior PbP: "Days of the Jackal" [closed]

    A quick question for everyone: "insider" knowledge not shared by everyone - Should I handle this via email or in specifically addressed posts? Thanks, Folkert

    Battletech/Mechwarrior PbP: "Days of the Jackal" [closed]

    Thanks for the inquiry, Shalimar! :) Yes, I am okay. My apology to all of you for leaving without a word about my absence, but I was called away from here rather abruptly on most urgent family matters. I returned yesterday and worked on my email backlog; unfortunately my tries to post here...

    T20: High Law and Low Justice, Part 3

    Zaedhrarrg quickly adds his own explanation to Ktarle's. "See, nothing bad actually! And as Ktarle said, I just got a slight scratch. Sorry for that blood, though. But don't worry, a good bath should ..., erm, well, you know. ... Ah ... Well, I did look for a cushion, but couldn't find...

    T20: High Law and Low Justice (IC Thread 2)

    "Oh, of course. Welcome back!" Zaed grins embarrassedly and quickly hides his paws behind his back. As Zaedhrarrg turns back to the cockpit, he notices dejectedly that even the co-pilot's seat is already taken. Looking over Ruzz'koff's shoulder, Zaed tries to get a glimpse of what is going...

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    The man stops and turns back to McKenzie, giving her a small nod and a friendly smile. "Good to hear that you did not intend to actually shoot him. Decisions like that are usually too easy to make and too hard to rectify." "However, now that your demonstration has shown to poor Davis here,"...
