Please post here if you would like to:
- Sign up for the Fan Council game
- Apply for the Faction Leader position of a faction
- Apply for membership of a 2nd faction(current players only)
- Switch to a different faction(must provide a reason)
Please list your 1st, 2nd, and 3rd faction choices, if you are applying for a Faction leadership position(GMs will contact you further), your CBT.com name(if applicable), if you are willing to play as Proxy for MegaMek combat resolution, and any optional contact information you have(Skype is very popular among the Intelser regulars for example, but email might also be good to list). The staff will respond to registration posts on a first-come, first-served basis, and factions that are over-populated will be locked down until the rosters even out.
Faction leadership:
Every faction has a Faction Leader, and a Faction XO. The FL is the ultimate authority when it comes to his faction: he controls the military, the economy, the industry, and all major characters for his faction. He is also the one who is ultimately responsible for the accuracy of his faction's Worksheet- if another player fills the worksheet out, but information is incorrect, the FL is going to be held accountable. Other players in his faction MUST follow his direction, and are not able to willfully sabotage or work against their Leader's wishes. Faction Leaders are encouraged to appoint one of their trusted players as Faction XO. If a Faction Leader is unavailable for a lengthy period of time, or will be unable to submit his faction's Worksheet on time, said responsibility falls to the XO. Otherwise, the GMs must step in, and results of a decision defaulting to GM Resolution are final, not open to appeal, and generally unfavorable compared to a player-influenced decision.

Are you looking to be the Faction Head for the Commonwealth Ian, or just a player?
-
Whichever is needed. I'd rather not be a faction head, but I won't say no if nobody else wants it, either. Something like St Ives is more my speed as a faction head.
-
Verywell, welcome to the Lyran Commonwealth, I'm sure we wont have any problems finding someone to run the faction however.
-
I'm not a half-bad hand at doing orders sheets, and I'm on on a pretty regular basis. Others can vouch for my ability to work with other players and listen as required to prevent internal issues.
ON that basis...
LC or Free Rassalhague, or "as needed", and yes, I'll do "Faction Head" duty.
-
Hrrmmm... Do I want to go Federat or Drac? And yes I will do Head Guy.
Guess my first choice will be Suns, followed by Combine, Republic/Compact, League, Commonwealth, Confederation.
-
@Cannonshop: Approved for Lyran Commonwealth, FH application pending
@GreyJaeger: Approved for Federated Suns, FH application pending
Just fyi, I'm not choosing FHs untill the majority of the players have registered, so everyone that wishes to go for the position can submit me an application(which I PM to those who express interest on their Registration post).
-
Lyr Com
Federated Suns
Free Worlds League
I'm willing to XO but not FH and if we need non FS/LC players I'm more than willing to play FWL or DC.
-
Okay, I'm willing to give this a shot.
Draconis Combine
Capellan Confederation
Free Rasalhague Republic
-
Free Worlds League
Capellan Confederation
Marian Hegemony
-
@Crunch: I'll list you as Lyrans for now, but if we don't get 2 players in another faction, would you be willing to switch?
@Jaim Magnus: approved for Draconis Combine. Not going for FH I presume?
@Chaosxtreme: approved for FWL
-
Hmm..
my thought is the more players the better but I know I cant go Lyran, so I will choose Chaos! :D
FWL
Lyran
and as I have to give a 3rd one..
Capella. But I wont do Faction Head, thats too much for me. Best would really be 5 players per faction. :)
Skype and Email available.
-
@Marlin: approved for FWL
-
@Jaim Magnus: approved for Draconis Combine. Not going for FH I presume?
No, unless there turns out to be no one else wanting it.
-
@Crunch: I'll list you as Lyrans for now, but if we don't get 2 players in another faction, would you be willing to switch?
Surely. I picked LC only for the chance to work with Cannonshop again. I would be willing to work with any faction except the CC.
-

Surely. I picked LC only for the chance to work with Cannonshop again. I would be willing to work with any faction except the CC.
I can also be switched if need be. I am already Cannonshop's disciple(there is no way to use the VTOL except through him!). I have no problem being faction head of a smaller faction(SIC first, FRR secondary).
-
Well its early yet. lets wait and see who else signs up for what. we had 12 people vote for the era, hopefully they will come check back soon to sign up.
-
I haven't really chimed in yet as I can't quite decide on what I want for preferences. I would prefer being under either Cannonshop or DeathRider6 as I already have considerable RP experience with them over the past couple of decades (and therefore can somewhat feel out how to deal with and curb their unique gaming "idiosynchracies"), but, really, I'm good with being a general wildcard at this point for whatever faction needs a player to fill out its ranks with.
Shouldn't need to be said, given the above, but no Faction Head for me.
-
Well get on DR's case to join up!
-
What is this? No Capellans! This will not do!
Fatebringer
Capellan Confederation
-
@Fatebringer: approved for Capellan Confederation. Fate, are you willing to take over as Faction Head? and to be honest, I'm suprised you didn't go for the FRR, seeing how much you enjoyed the Dominion haha
-
Yes to the Faction Head. I like dominion I created that was all Raveny ;) I usually play either Drac, Raven or Cappellan.
-
SIC
FRR
FedSuns
Don't want FH, but will do it if no one else wants to for the first two choices. FedSuns is too important for a newcomer
-
@Absalom: approved for St Ives Compact
-
So, I say to myself why not throw my hat in the ring. I'm willing to be a faction head as well.
1st Choice- FRR- I'll wear the curved horned helm of Loki!
2nd Choice- FS- It'd be good to go home.
3rd Choice- SIC- I've got really nothing except Quintus Allard-Liao Forever! Wait, he's probably a twinkling in his father's eye at the time. Well, I've got nothing.

HELL YESSS!!! SIGN ME UUUUUUP!!!!
so it's (if you guys want me)
Fedsuns
Rasalhague
TaeTaeTae (just kidding - Cappies is 3rd)
-
@Hugin: I'm wanting to place you in Rasalhauge, because I'd like to see 2 players there before a 3rd goes to the FS(assuming that the FS-LC will eventually form the FedCom, giving us a 5-player faction basiclly). Sound good to you Hugin?
-
I can go with that as well - will harlock be my faction leader or shall I do that job knowing that he usually has little time? :)
-
@Hugin: approved for FRR, and as for the FH position, he has said he will be the FH for the Rassies, but its upto him if he'd like to abdicate to you
-

Abolutely okay with me!
Glad to See the Old guard Assembling!
(And posting from German cell is a pain in the Ass)
-
Hugin, i've been thinking about your placement. If its all the same to you, the Great Houses need the players more than the FRR and SIC. I'm thinking since the FS still has 2 players already, the Cappies might be the best place for you to be stationed. Ok?
-
heh okay
IF you promise to give us a doable Situation I'll go cappie as well :)
it's just my fear that the cappies are reduced to lie flat and hope for the 60's :-\
-
I find your lack of faith, disturbing.

Every faction is recieving the battlemech units it historiclly had, or as close as I can get, and there is not alot of reliable information on them outside of the Historical: War of 3039, which focuses almost entirely on the DCMS, AFFS, and LCAF. However, since that would make certain factions essentially unplayable(CC, SIC, FRR), those factions are being bolstered in other ways to make them more attractive. In the case of the CC, considering their dependance on Mercs, I'm currently leaning at giving them some sort of bonus on the mercenary market, or perhaps, given their propensity for relying on mercs, I might allow them to choose from a handful of the units they historiclly had at the time, and giving them advanced access(essentially they'd have a 'right of first refusal' clause in their past contract, which the MRBC would be honoring).
I haven't decided exactly what, so don't get your hopes up on that just yet. I'm still scouring the books for information on the formations, and I'm also putting together aerospace units from scratch, so you atleast have a little MP to play with.
-
I would recommend for bolstering the SIC a simple solution, that would also help even out the Capellan disadvantage. Require the FedCom to station a certain % of their mechs to support them. It's a small thing, but hey, it's also realistic.
In the PM I sent you, I had requested pretty much the exact same bonus for the Cappies regarding the mercs. :)
-
@Fate: I'm very much looking forward to play with you :)

Neat! Denbar is closer to Sian, than say, New Sytris. ;D
-
If we feel it necessary to buff the Cappies we need to make sure it's not a defacto buff to the DC.
-
Personally, I think every faction should have a right of first refusal for a certain number of merc units. After all, I can't ever see the 21st Centauri Lancers, in this period, ever not being in the employ of the FWL. Likewise, units such as the LCG for the FedSuns.
I'm not advocating first right of refusal for all units, however for a number that realms would consider almost like House units.
And what about merc units currentlyin the employ of the periphery states? Are they to be excluded? Because if not, and when, or if, the periphery is opened up for play, then I know that both the TC and the Magistracy is very dependent on Mercs to supplement their line formations.

-
If factions wish to write First Refusal clauses into their mercenary contracts, that is up to them. However, nobody is going to be getting such abilities right out of the gate except for the smaller factions, to allow them to bolster their militay, since they have a house unit disadvantage.
As for the periphery, the mercs that wish to stay within the good graces of the formal mercenary community, the ones who used the MRB and the MRBC, they would be under the same rules as the big IS units: contracts are no longer supported by ComStar, untill renegotiated under MRBC rules. If/when I open up the periphery(don't hold your breath) they will get something to give them some staying power. Assuming the players don't eat the little nations before then(which I will be making very difficult btw).
-
I have discussed it with Jaim, and he would like someone with experience to assist, if not head, the DC. So I request transfer to the DC.
-
Approved.
I would like to request that one of the Lyran players consider moving over to the Federated Suns, so that all 5 Great Houses have atleast 2 players, and the only loners are the guys in charge of the smaller factions anyways. Please? You can apply for FH of the Suns if you wish, or not, but I would really like to see someone make the move to balance out the Great Houses.
Again, thats a request only, not a demand.
-
I'll take Fed Suns if its open and Parm wants me.
-
Thank you very much Crunch for moving over.
-
Thank you very much Crunch for moving over.
Honestly it's my favorite faction. I was only going LC to play with Cannon and I'm sure we can come up with a reason to fool around.

Something tells me that in this era the FS and LC players will have plenty of opportunity for faction-crossover RP :)

Very very limited MM avalibility (though if this game goes as long as the last one, my kids will make it to school, then I'll have more time). No leadership intrest (perhaps small faction XO, at the most).
Nice to see most of the old gang is here.

A friend of mine brought me here to your RPG and i thought i´ll try it out. =)
My faction of choice would be Draconis Combine.
Second Lyran

welcome to Intelser!

Yaaay eppi!

If there are still slots open, I'm interested in the Fed Suns or the FRR.

I do not forsee a situation where we will be turning away willing participants. Approved for FedSuns

Thank you! :D
-
As long as you have your faction heads set, I don't see why a faction can't have up to 5 players. Once the battles start, there will be things to do besides RP.
-
if we start getting more than 4 or more players per faction, that is when I would considering making a jump to the Clan era, if people wanted it. I'm actually somewhat surprised we had this level of turnout, pleasantly surprised. But I leave it upto the players to decide where things go, I don't want to be the storyteller, just want to give you guys a subtle push here and there
-
Well, having more era specific information at hand and a set of rules that are essentially done really helps ;)
-
In this case, I think you're benefiting from being the "Only (FGC) game in town." And probably, it's a time period that people want to play. I mean, we had a great S7 game going until the Jihad hit and we lost a lot of players who did not want to play the Jihad. They wanted the same old Solaris they were use to and that was it, so they walked. I'd say about half the game left.
-
Well hopefully everyone has enough fun that they don't want to splinter off into a new game and make competition ;) I think one big game is more fun for all involved than 2 smaller games, you know?
-
Agreed.
-
Might there be room for a Canopian liason officer with the FWL forces? I know they were tight with Andurien at the time, so there's that end. I would be happy to join up the League, though I would certainly reserve a desire to play and/or FH the Canopians if/when they're allowed.
Side note, Xotl made some truly epic RATs for the 3028/3039 era, both mechs and vehicles. It's a d1000 system and does perhaps the best direct look at a faction's makeup, at least per weight class. It's inclusive of everything that's ever been mentioned, weighted by fluff descriptions. It's not terribly balanced, especially by 3039 since the IS has a lot of SL tech starting to pop up compared to the Periphery states being stuck with SW-era stuff, but it is pretty bloody accurate.
-
yaaay Icchan!!!!

The numbers keep increasing. [Mr. Burns] Excellent [/Mr. Burns]
-
@icchan: approved for FWL, and you can have first crack at the Canopians if/when they get opened up for play

Hi Folks
I got poited towards this game on CBT.com.
If you are still taking players I'd go with the following:
Available Factions:
Free Rasalhauge Republic
Lyran Commonwealth
I was informed that I can neither apply for Periphery nor for Mercs. Is this still valid?
If not I would like to express my interest in the Taurians.
-
That is correct. Mercenaries are not playable factions in this game, and the periphery is currently locked out from player control. That being said, welcome to Intelser, and you are approved for the FRR. :)
-
Just an FYI to people, Hugin asked Cannonshop to take over as Faction Head of the Lyrans, and CS agreed.
Effective immediately, Hugin is no longer playing for the Capellans, he is now Faction Head for the LyCom. I assume Cannon is staying on as a Lyran player untill I hear otherwise
-

Like I told Hugin, if Ian had no problem with the arrangement, and DK (the GM) had no problem, I really had no problem with it-we're ramping up to an increased production flow at work, and I expect to be pulling hellish amounts of overtime later this year, since Deadlines are Deadlines for a reason, having someone else handle the sheets ON TIME keeps the faction alive-flaky time management issues don't, and I'm willing to give Hugin a shot if the rest of the LC's players are willing, and provided it doesn't foul things up for the GM.

Said it in PMs, but aye, I'm fine with Hugin as FH.

LOL, I'm already working 11 hr days :P I sympathise.
-
I suppose I'll throw my hat into the ring (or other local colloquialism). I have very little preference for faction, but since the Capellans have the least players of the Successor States, I will list them first. Plus having another Raven as Faction Head would definitely work for me.

First off hope everyone's doing well (or better at least) from when I last was around a year or two back.
I've been missing my battletech fix and when I noticed recently that the game was restarting I was on the fence about joining back. Parmenion noticed my visits and asked if I'd like to have go of it. So here I am and I'd like to be working with him again if at all possible.
1. Federated Suns
2. Lyran Commonwealth
3. FWL
I'd have picked the Cappies as a choice to have the chance to work with IM, Fate, and up till yesterday Hugin again, but the only good cappy is a dead one. ;)
-
Welcome back to the site Dis, it's good to see you back again.
Now, I know you placed FS and LC first on your list, but I'm kind of liking you going to the FWL, just because the more different voices in Parliament there are, the better the FWL becomes. Its not a requirement, and if you're really hoping for the FS I'm okay with it, but I just think that they could use a 4th player before the FedCom factions(after all, they're almost a single faction at this stage, with Kat having her cancer fight).
Your thoughts?

I'd actually love to have him with me :)
-
well he's either going to head to the FS(his first choice), or the FWL(where I think he will do the most for the game, giving another opinion in the rowdy FWL Parliament chambers)
-
Don't worry Dis. FWL or FedCom, the Death Commandos are still comming for you 8)
Nibs, welcome aboard!
-
Is there any posibility of opening Periphery factions? Or the IS factions still needs players?
-
FWL could use more people. Remember tis not treason to disagree with the Captain-General!
-
Currently I am not willing to open up the periphery nations untill all Great Houses have atleast 5 4-5 players, and the FRR and St Ives have atleast 2 each. So we are still a ways away from adding any new factions.
-
I'd probably prefer to be a Freddy, but if Parm doesn't need the help I don't mind the FWL.
Hmmm.. IM maybe if I don't come looking for them first ;)
-
Nibs! You traitor ;)
Welcome aboard!
It was a tough choice, with so many Ravens! But don't worry Jaim, if I become a traitor, the Combine will be my first choice of asylum. ;)

Ummm...it could be interesting to play the FWL once at least, if the faction leader agree. The Andurians still are reviled by the rest of the FWL, and the Regulans are still pro-federal, right?

Good evening =) Harlock said he needed me as his starscream ;D

Quote just so and the Anduriens are still in revolt so if you pick them you essentially have your own faction. :-)

@AK: approved for Lyran Commonwealth
welcome aboard!
-
Err... How about AW running the Compact since you mentioned Absalom has left.
Just saying, as the Suns has a vested interest in an active St Ives.
-
Just so we're all clear on faction status:
the SIC currently has no players. Because it is such a small faction, I will be running it in full untill a willing player steps forward, from OUTSIDE the game. I don't want to dilute the factions, there has been enough shuffling around already, if I can help it. I am willing to let a player without FH experience(provided they have either FGC experience, or a recommendation from an experienced and respected player) take a swing at the SIC, so long as the FS is willing to mentor them(after all, the FS is the main reason the SIC didn't get eaten by the CC in canon anyways).
As for the DC...I am unwilling to let such a major faction be handled by anyone other than an experienced FGC faction head. So untill one shows up ready to lead the DC to glory(or defeat), I will be co-Captaining the DC with Grey along the lines I spoke about earlier. I feel it is the only way to keep the DC functioning as a normal faction without simply taking over and running it as NPC faction, something I don't think anyone in the game ever likes to see happen.
-
Err... How about AW running the Compact since you mentioned Absalom has left.
Just saying, as the Suns has a vested interest in an active St Ives.
I know they do, and I plan to run them with as much effort as I ran the Falcons, albeit vastly different goals(the SIC ain't conquoring the Sphere anytime soon :P).
However, AK didn't seem interested in the FH position right off the bat, so I'm inclined to let him get his bearings in the LC while I boss the SIC. Besides, this gives me a perfectly good tool, along with the DC, to get some storylines moving without having to resort to throwing ComStar out there to start mixing things up so soon after trying(and having success with) the diplomatic approach.
-
I'm willing to give it a shot, The SIC is pretty small, so it's not like running a Great House. Especially if the Suns is going to mentor me. Heck, that's even canon. The FS advisor was practically Candace's chief of staff. lol
-
go for it AW!!!
-
Nice to have you here AW!
-
May I make a suggestion?
How about we go with Ark? AW will always mean "Attention Whore" to me. :D

LOL! Yeah, you are right.
-
1. Anything
2. Anything
3. Anything
Since Periphery States are unavailable and other FH unattainable, I don't really care about what I play, I'm flexible enough. So why don't you fine gentlemen decide who wants me and we'll go from there. Just as long as I get to do something.
-
I will allow the various faction heads to lobby for who needs an extra player, though most likely the LC or FWL could use your help the most.
-
I'm easy. Just as long as I can dip my hands into the blood of my enemies I'm good.

And given that most people don't see it, we need all the more people to help us enlighten them. Just so long as they bring three or four mech regements with them. ;)
-
1. Anything
2. Anything
3. Anything
Since Periphery States are unavailable and other FH unattainable, I don't really care about what I play, I'm flexible enough. So why don't you fine gentlemen decide who wants me and we'll go from there. Just as long as I get to do something.
The FWL can always welcome another player.

I said that... didn't I say that?
"or someone who requests the CC specifically"
Well, it is kind of infered that when you reqest to be part of the CC that you know the truth of her Celestial Wisdom's love and guidance. :)

Taurian Concordat (Yay Paranoia!)
Outworlds Alliance
Minor Periphery Powers (Lothans, Illyrians, etc)
I would like to get my feet wet with small fry before I do anything crazy in rejoining such an insane game.
(Are Periphery nations available?)
-
Well, 1) I had children crawling on me, so I'm blaming them for my poor reading there and 2) who would ever not specificly request us, if they didn't think we might not welcome them? I mean, really, is there a better place to be than the Capellan Confederation?
(Other than Clan Mongoose, I guess 8) )
Though intrestingly, depending on your point of view, the St Ives Compact is, in its way, the Confederation too, so I guess we should encourage everyone to go there. It can be the gateway drug on the path of enlightenment addiction.

Not as this time.

I don't think the periphery is open right now. Maybe go FWL, and get them to give you Andurien? Since they're in rebellion right now, that basically gives you your own minor state to run.
-
I might just lurk then. I was interested in something to really practice my getting into the game, learning the rules, but where I can watch safely ;) I also wanted to focus on the Concordat because it is right around now that Thomas' craziness started getting VERY pronounced. As such, it was going to be fun roleplay!
-
You should go ahead and sign up.
1) I suspect when the periphery factions do become available first dibs will go to currently active players.
2) Periphery powers aren't going to become available until we have enough players period.
In other words if you sign up and get active the Periph will be here sooner and you're more likely to have a shot.
-
Oh, twist my arm ;)
I believe then that:
1) FRR
2) FWL
3) CapCon
I would go Davion (have a soft spot for them), but then again I think it'll be popular.
-
Bergie, you can always come and join the FWL, and when the Periphery opens, go to the TC. It is always fun to play with you in the FGCs.
-
What you should really do is join the Confederation, because we hate the Davions as much as the Taurians do! And the MoC, too (its only a few years since we turned them and Andurian back, after all).
Or some other faction that needs players more. I mean, if you can stand being inferior.
-
As long as I am not (initially) faction leader, I'll go wherever I'm needed.
-
Bergie, the FRR already has enough people for such a small faction, so I'm going to stick you into the FWL, alright? And Crunch is correct in that when the Periphery opens up, active players get dibs on whichever factions they are interested in. Welcome to the game!
@Terminax: Who interestes you more, the LC or the FWL? If you really want you can hop over and play the DC with me and Grey, but I don't know how much time I'll have to teach you the ropes, what with running the game and all...
-
I guess I'll go with the FWL.
-
Bergie, the FRR already has enough people for such a small faction, so I'm going to stick you into the FWL, alright?
Fine with me!
-
Doesn't really matter to me. If the FWL is full up or Bergie-fied, I'm good with the LC or DC.
-
Its is fine with me if both or one of you wants to get into the FWL. I need more players to RP the diferent factions in the Parliament.
-
Both are approved for the FWL. They more than anyone else, need RP-heavy persons to make Parliament really fun, and make the FWL play like it should.
-
wow Bergie... O.o
VERY long time no see....
-
I have been TRYING to get my life together and on track for a few years now. I SHOULD have some free time now and I have been feeling a little under-stimulated ;)
-
Well I'm Andurien. For however long that lasts. Then we'll see where I end up in the FWL.
-
Ah, I'm going to have to say 'no' to someone taking Andurien. Seeing as they are in a state of rebellion, they arn't part of the FWL at this point in time. I'm handling the rebels on this one, because I have a specific plan in place. You're free to take control of them after the rebellion has been put down, but not before.
-
Well that decides that.
-
I thought the 'in rebellion' status would've been enough to deter people from trying to assume control over them, since they arn't really part of the FWL at this point. But yes...it won't be a long wait I think.
-
Well, they better be careful, or they might be really part of the Confederation.
Oh Fate, where'd we put thouse mech regements? (All three of them ::) )
-
Well it's been decided, I'm playing Oriente.
