And for those that aren't reg'd on TAW and don't want to, I just pulled the storyline... ~>

"Cowards die many times before their death, but the valiant only taste of it but once!"

The klaxon howled its deafening death tone as the Saratoga's stabilizers went off-line and began to downward spiral into Syrma Prime's upper atmosphere. As it descended, it met a fiery end, but not before dispelling most of the drop ships it harbored.

It had been nearly eighty cycles since the early days of the invasion when the Icaza Class Warship known as Psy'phun Fury, the lead vessel of the Milan Confederation, broke the Maskirovka Peace Treaty and threw the Sphere Republic into chaos and war. That war lasted for almost 30 cycles and came at a heavy price to both sides.

The Sphere Republic had all but collapsed when after much fighting and many losses of life and territory, both the Milan Confederation and The Sphere Republic once again came to terms but not until after the fall of the Confederation's House Leader, F'erris Milan. Shortly afterwards, the New Glasgow Peace Treaty was reluctantly signed.

As reconstruction of the Republic began, territories within its borders lay in ruin while heaps of scrap metal from once powerful battle machines known as "mechs" were littered from one end of the quadrant to the next.

Although there was an official treaty again, raids were common place, set forth by would-be mech-pirates, mercenaries and scavengers, all whom held no honor to the treaty. Their methods were ruthless, take what they want and leave no one alive.

One of the capital stipulations imposed by the New Glasgow Treaty, was a mutual dismantlement of war mechs as well as the downsizing of heavy fleet vessels. Obviously, this stipulation was quietly ignored... by both sides.

Although new factories could not be built under the new treaty as it would draw too much attention to the treaty violations, underground "Mech-Bays" were constructed and the piecing of old and destroyed mechs once again began construction.

"I will not be chained like a dog!" The direct Descendant of the Milan household and current Commandant of the Milan Confederation, Vik'tor Milan barked.

"For fifty cycles we have been catering to the concerns of politicians, diplomats and cowards! War is pure and it is absolute! It is inevitable and it is the highest crime not to allow it to manifest itself and run its course. Only the strong survive and our time is now!" Vik'tor Milan continually boasted as he slammed his fist against the translucent barrier separating him from space.

As Milan turned and walked back toward his desk where a holographic display of the Sphere Republic hovered in display, he quietly spoke to himself, "I yearn for battle. I long for the cities of mine enemy to fall before me in ruin as their fallen leaders kneel in defeat and submission!" In a back handed motion, he swung through the hologram causing the image to erratically disrupt and disappear. This brought an almost smirk to his cold face.

Meanwhile, on the bridge of the Republic Warship, New Zion Hope, the All Stations Alert was sounded.

"Sir, long range scanners report building activity on the outskirts of the Sphere rim. Those reports confirm the activity to be that of the Confederation, however the exact activity is not yet clear." A young yeoman informed Commander Mason Zet.

"Plot an intercept course and initiate a stand-to order for the Wild Cards, Steel Wolves and Osirus Sect." Commander Zet decisively ordered.

Then, within moments of the stand-to order, a message came across the Republic's information band that Chancellor Rue and two other members of his cabinet had been assassinated.

A realization became crystal clear to Commander Zet and his command staff and to all within the Sphere Republic... and that realization... that war was eminent.

After the assassination of Republic's Chancellor Loran Rue, the Milan Confederation, constrained by the imposed decades of peace, set the gears in motion to embark on their most spectacular war in generations.

Milan stood gazing at the stars, which lay backdrop to his war ship. His XO, Alek'sander Laveau approached and quietly said, "Sir, the Republic's warship, New Zion Hope, is on an intercept path for us. What are your orders?"

"Drop and conquer." Milan calmly replied. He then turned and made his way to docking bay 5 where his drop ship, loaded with his Steel Lancer awaited his arrival. As the drop ship received its final clearance to drop, Milan whispered to himself, "un-leash the hounds."

A stream of drop ships from both the Psy"phun Fury and the New Zion Hope began to descend onto the planet, Skye, as the two war ships opened up in a barrage of vehemence ion cannon fire and missiles.

One could look up from the planet's surface and see that the heavens were on fire as the fleet vessel from the Confederation and the ill-fated Republic systematically annihilated one another just above the atmosphere over Skye.

As the Zion's drop ships entered the upper atmosphere, howls could be heard through the comm-links. This howling was the standard trademark of the Republic?s own Mech-Group known as Steel Wolves as they went on patrol or were about to embark in battle.

"Someone should put those dogs down." Commented Terrin Royce, the Mech-Engineer from the accompanying group, The Wild Cards.

"AT EASE!" Commanded the Wild Card's Group Leader, Jana Frost.

"Enough with the chit-chat! Get you heads in the game! Are we square?" Frost demandingly questioned her troops.

The Wild Cards answered with their war-cry, "Deal Em' Up!"

Meanwhile, on an opposing drop ship from Psy'phun Fury, a mercenary group from S'urin Minor, Carmella's Commando's goes through final checks as they complete the last part of their drop. Their Group Leader, E'lora Reigns, gives a silent command to her group in which they respond with an acknowledging nod then turn their attentions to their pre-mob check-lists.

Within the same mech-bay, crewmembers from Kodiak's Rage and Neptune's Tridents finish off their checklists and begin the boarding of their mechs. A solemn resolve hung heavy in the dank air of each mech.

Troops and mechs geared up as they prepared to face off in battle, and with the coming dawn one thing was certain, a new war had begun. That war would pit soldier against soldier and Mech Pilot against Mech Pilot in an ultimate collision of power and brutality.

That dawn would bring with it a new name, its name... STEEL DAWN!

Calling all Mech-Pilots, Sphere Marines, Scavengers, Mercenaries and Cutthroats alike!

Fatal Paint will be there... as ajnin is General for one of the sides.

**DevilMan** · 02-15-2009, 01:14 AM

Yup... I'm thinking there will be a large contingent of FP personnel there....

Should be a solid showing of LD as well hopefully.

Chances are we'll be shooting AGAINST you guys as usual, but who knows.... I'm hoping not.

Brewtt you and the crew need to see about making it down to the Modesto game as well if you can make that happen!!!

DM

**DevilMan** · 02-17-2009, 03:23 PM

Bumpage.... Hoping to get a good showing to provide a target rich environment for this game...

Hey Brewtt.... check the WTB section...

DM

**DevilMan** · 02-25-2009, 12:12 PM

Alright... back to the front page with this... Looks like I'll be running AGAINST AJNIN and BREWTT and the rest of FP crew as well as the Marauders and a few other choice teams as I'll be running Inner Sphere side.

Sooooo... Any of you other maggots that want to come on out and do some damage check out the site and get registered!!!!

**Brewtt** · 02-25-2009, 12:36 PM

DM

What kind of mech are you building? I have no clue yet. How you doing the legs?

**DevilMan** · 02-25-2009, 12:46 PM

I was going for a Fridge box with a tupperware bowl on the top!!!!

I'm leaning more towards the ATLAS and THOR style mechs not the MadCat and Vulture style.

ummmm... looks like D gave me a Code 4 and put me in charge of the "WildCards" but I've asked to be pulled as I don't do the RP that much though I could I guess, but also it would interfere with "colors" and designs I have planned on using.
