Idly wondering how many people left out websites because they didn't want to admit that they regularly visit them... :happydevil:

I'm not one for really "surfing" the internet all that much. If I've got time on my computer I'm either writing or playing games, sometimes both.

I didn't. You just have to figure it out.

Meh my personal collection is now large enough that a rarely go looking for random adult entertainment now. No point risking the crap flooding my computer when I have half a TB of it.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

When I go looking for that, I don't use my browser that remembers where i've been.
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Oh please, the Clans made your super allies look like a bunch of mall cops on the battlefield.

Until the plot demands the Clans look like idiots. Then they can't find their asses with two hands and a flashlight.

More like the IS pulled an uber army out of its collective asses. Even with all their bullshit, the Clans still won every major campaign of the year. Which is why the following year when they put out the novels they had to leave the clans alive. Since their plan was to remove the clans entirely I guess thats a bit of a moral win.

Eh, still killed all my interest in the setting. After the Twilight of the clans I more or less checked out of CBT. It was obvious the clans were being relegated a minor faction made up of a bunch of squabbling barbarians.

There are a few sites that do well for keeping up the feeds on the Clans. I keep an active interest in them. If they ever brought the Clans back to active relevance my browser would quickly fill with the BT site HQ.

On a side note, maybe its time to reopen talks in the Battletech section.

Can the few of us BT junkies keep it up and running? lol

The only way to "destroy" the Invader Clans now is to go the Bears and Ravens route or simply have the Invader Clans absorbed into IS society. The Homeworld Clans are effectively out of the picture now.
