Message: <blockquote data-quote="Douane" data-source="post: 1518217" data-attributes="member: 157">"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 some mercenaries and he needs them now.This is actually to your advantage, as we won't have enough time to run as thorough background checks on you as we would like to. But I trust that no one of you has any skeletons in his closet; that is, beyond the usual standard, of course.Let's cut to the chase:Due to the unfortunate Kentares 'incident' you already had health checks, otherwise you wouldn't even be on-planet.Judging from the cargo manifests, your mechs also check out, though our own experts will need to verify that.Other than that we still have a few tests of our own. Hopefully you didn't think that little bit of playing outside was a test. Trust me, not even the low-down cooperatives have such lousy standards. By estimation of our taskmaster [another nod to the dark-skinned man] these will take roundabout one day, so I'd really appreciate if you could spare the time. I'll also have an old friend on call for everyone who wants a lesson in humility and some help in getting rid of his or her bias against the "paper tigers" fighting in the arenas of the Gameworld.Since we want so many things from you, my guess would be that you have some questions of your own. Fire away with them once I'm finished.But first a little bit of further information on what we have in mind, as you won't get any more regarding this before you are accepted.We are looking at a contract length of 6 months to 2 years, the final amount of time depending on some external factors we have no influence on.The contract will specify 'retainer service' with a default of garrison duty.Oh, and perhaps the most important to you: We need a unit of about company strength."Suddenly the friendly and comradely atmosphere is gone and the temperature of the room seems to have dropped a few degrees.</blockquote>
