The year is 3025, and the ramp up to the 4th Succession War is in full swing. Great houses are getting into increasingly long border skirmishes, pirate activity is on the rise, and its a profitable time to be a mercenary.

Enter one such mercenary band. A minor company operating out of the heart of the Inner Sphere named Marley's Misfits. Made up of whatever pilots, crew and tech could be scaped together, operating whatever BattleMechs and vehicles they can get their hands on, the rising tension is being seen by their commander, one Marley Swanson, as their time to make enough cash and a name for themselves to hit the big leagues.

Welcome one and all to our little dive into the wonderful world of the BattleTech and MechWarrior universe! Now, normally this is where I'd put the rules and junk, but I trust y'all to behave. We're adults here. Biggest thing is I'm not intending for us to touch on pretty much anything more morally gray or dubious beyond "we're being paid to fight in someone else's war." So do keep that in mind.

As for technology, I'm not limiting us to mechs in any capacity. You wanna play a tank commander? Go ahead. An aerospace fighter jockey? Consider it done. A VTOL pilot? Absolutely. Heck, I'm even on board if you wanna play a marine/security commander and lead the poor bloody infantry. Biggest thing for technology is that anything that was available in 3025, and not strictly limited or controlled by one Great House or other faction, is allowed in its standard configuration. If you wanna rip something out to make a more customized mech, there'll need to be some tradeoffs.

If anyone has any questions, just yell at me. The wiki [url]https://www.sarna.net/wiki/[/url] is a fantastic resource for pretty much anything you could need for the setting, and I've set up a discord here ([url]https://discord.gg/5Nuv2DqtFQ[/url]) so we have a more real-time place to talk and plan and chatter and whatnot.

Anyway here's a CS template and an Asset template:
