*sob* The newest novel here is Patriot's Stand.

*continues to sob* :classic:

Well, the official release date for Flight is tomorrow, so I wouldn't worry yet :)

Yup, that's just about how much Wizkids cares what their customers think. Everybody seemed to dislike the DelRio Trilogy very much, and so they make him write two new ones. Well, maybe he does not demand much money for his writings.

I slowly begin to ask myself when the Spirit Cats and Dragon's Fury will make an appearance in any of the new books. The Fury has been mentioned in one sentence in Ghost War, but no single word was told about the Spirit Cats.

Well there was one sentence about spirit cats in Patriot stand. But I would like to actially get a story about them :).

I think the book would have bin perfect if

SPOILER!!!








































If Alek lived and not Maliva.... to be honest the fact that Maliva will be leading the Jade Falcons future Generations brings the Survival of Clan Jade Falcon into question and i am really scared as a Loyal Follower of the Founder and a fan of Jade Falcon :( :mad:

I managed to pick the new book up here in Canberra, Australia on Saturday just got it at Dymocks. Was quiet surprised to find it there.

From what you guys have said it should be an interesting read....
Bout to start once i get my butt away from the computer!
:-)
Can't wait....

Wait SC were actually mentioned in a book? Cool! Could you quote that part out of the book? Also,since none of the authors seem to want to write about the SC in books,in a couple days I'm posting my book up in the fiction section(hopefully,at least,the name is Harvest of Deciets,about some NC freebirths and thier defense of a planet under siege by SW). The mechs in it are gonna be ones not showing up in the fictions often(to the best of my knowledge. Crimson Hawks,Ghosts,Targes,Cougars all show up at one point or the other).

so you guys think that when FP comes all the campaigns will switch from Liao heavy to Jade Buzzard heavy?

They mentioned teh Spirit Cats in Flight of the Falcon aswell, basically Tara Cambell called them posers LOL

hippies. =P

Ok looking up the place they mensioned spirit cats in Patriot's Stand :)

Found it page 78 :

"That's not as bad as the new ones prancing around, Spirit Cats, but he's still a bit daft, if if you know my meaning,"

That's not much, but it's half of all spirit cat fiction we got in 9 books. :(

We need a book wizkids !!!! Would be nice to know what is going on with our faction.

Tara Campell called the Cats hippies? Well, at least are the hippies still undefeated. Ask Jacob Bannson, he knows what I'm talking about. :)

So so... the whole Clan Jade Falcon makes a Trial Of Annilihation against Steel Wolves. Great storyline, Wizkids. If they make it at least somehow realistic, I'd give the Wolves about three months until their puny three galaxies have fallen completely before the 20+ galaxies of the Jade Falcons. We'd had dead Wolves very soon. That would be THE chance for Wizkids to actually remove a faction from the game. But somehow I fear the Wolves manage to survive this, don't ask me how.

Can you say: history repeating? In Counterassault, the ROTS and SS struck back against House Liao, and the ROTS did not get a single unit in the set. We got great promises that this won't happen again. Now we have the Steel Wolves struggling for their lives against the Jade Falcons, and the Wolves don't get a single unit in Falcon's Prey as it seems right now...

Athos, you seem to have gotten your factions a bit mixed up. We don't know the size of the touman of the Steel Wolves. It is the Wolves in Exile who have 3 galaxies. Furthermore, those figures are for 3067. It's a safe bet that they are no longer correct for 3132+. (I might also point out that the Green Pigeons don't seem to have invaded the RotS with all of their touman, only a couple of galaxies.)

@-js-

If CJF have announced a Trial of Annihilation against the SW then either it has been ratified by the Council, or it is a rogue announcement, like several CJF units did against the participants of Operation Audacity where they countered a CJF advance by invading Falcon space. Several CJF units started using Dezgra tactics claiming they were allowed to annihilate the unit.

Truth be told, the use of the term Trial of Annihilation here just goes to show how far Kerensky's Clans have fallen. A Trial of Annihilation needs to be ratified by the Grand Council. It is supposed to be the ultimate punishment. The Falcs have started to use it so frequently I'd suspect they are soon to be Abjured. They have deviated some way from the True Path.

In character...
It is a shame that so many of Kerensky's children have failed to fulfill their duty. Clan Nova Cat, ashamed as I am to admit it, was forced to turn briefly against its Clans to maintain the Way. Only Clan Ghost Bear appears to have achieved the Founder's dream of being able to unite the Clan Way with its subjects in the Inner Sphere.

'Ware awaking the Bear. Strongest of the Clans. Peaceful in slumber and Terror Incarnate when awoken. Well does the Nova Cat know the Bear and softly does it walk around its Lair.

Jade Falcon's battle screams will come to naught when the Bear stands up to be counted.
