The Razan's Ronins TO&E and Roster has been updated to reflect the salvage, purchases, and new recruits as of an IC date of December 1st 3095. Hopefully its easier to read with the color coding, Companies, and Battalions added and the personnel have been ordered by rank per vehicle.

The Ronin's are nearing the reputation necessary to acquire a Landhold as well. I was going to ask for a Landhold on Ascella since we've already fluffed it with Ronin's Keep and our training facility. Let me know though if there are other suggestions.

Echoes of the 5th Succession War:

Most would consider the Draconis Combine to have gained more than it lost from the 5th Succession War. If territory and the resources that come with it were the only criteria, then House Kurita might have appeared to be a clear winner. A number of worlds that were under the jurisdiction of House Steiner and House Davion now remain in Kuritan control. Even a number of worlds of the former Rasalhague district and then the Rasalhague Dominion remain under the wing of the Dragon, adding to the productive might of the military state’s mixed market economy. Some of these worlds still suffer the problems of a belligerent populace, but time heals all wounds given enough of it.

The former Star League Administered systems fell largely into the hands of House Kurita as well, although the sudden offensive by the Unified Leadership of the Tikonov Republic and House Marik have turned this back against the Dragon and then some. As it stands, even Dieron rests in Agatha’s hands as Kuritan systems all the way from Yorii, Rigil Kentarus and Fornalhaut to Lambrech, Telos IV and Al Na’ir have fallen to the onslaught of the Free World’s League’s machinations as of this writing.

Yet still, despite the obvious seriousness to most of the other inhabitants of the Inner Sphere as to the ULTRA and FWL threat, the Dragon seemed slow to react as late as 3091. With the death of the Benjamin Military District Warlord, Boris Petroff, his replacement, Lee Heyama, sought to stoke fire with House Davion yet again along his district's border. In August of 3091 he sent the 46th Benjamin Regulars, Ryuken-ryu, 2nd Amphigean Light Assault (reformed in 3088), and the 2nd Aura Wings to conquer Marduk of all places, resting the system away from the 5th Crucis Lancers, who were allowed to withdraw. Many analysts think Heyama lucky the Davions did not retaliate, perhaps because of their own preoccupation with more than a few problems of their own.

Heyama, however, had something to prove in filling Petroff’s shoes. And so did the mercenary Aura Wings, seeing their first deployment after finding a way to give themselves a new lease on life. They consolidated themselves in their own internal struggle, fended off a Draconis March-sponsored uprising and covert attack on their home of Galtor III, and found a way to field a regiment to fulfill the Warlord’s command. The Warlord’s gamble appears to have paid off however, with the capture of Marduk providing an important industrial production site to help fill some of the gap left by the loss of worlds still in the hands of the Free World’s League. Worlds such as Dieron, Al Na’ir and others.



A ROM Report: 'State of the Dragon'

Not all is rosy however, and the Pillar of Steel has suffered some scratches along the way since the seeming end of the 5th Succession War. There was the debacle on Land’s End along the border with Clan Snow Raven, that world nearly lost in an embarrassing Pyrrhic victory that saw the once prestigious Akki-Tsubasa, now Aura Wings, fail to defend the construction of an experimental surface to orbital defense system. The many lives and c-bills that the DCPS and DCMS hold the mercenaries responsible for losing has put them in the dog house over the past few years, and they limped back to their fiefdom of Galtor III in shame only to embroil themselves in civil war to end the 3080s.

Then of course there is the blight of an aggressive Agatha Rousset-Marik, quickly gobbling up many worlds of the Chaos March including those of the Draconis Combine. The DCMS lost several Battle Groups in the fighting, and several others still remain under strength as a result of beatings they took at the hands of ULTRA forces. However, the Pillar of Steel still stands tall and preparations are visible along the border to stem the possibility of a new offensive, and to strike back when the time comes.



Common Enemies:

The first half of 3092 saw the signing of two pieces: the Treaty of Marduk and the Treaty of La Blon. By signing these treaties with House Davion and House Steiner respectively, Hohiro has galvanized the DCMS in focus of repelling Agatha and restoring the systems lost to their rightful place under the Dragon’s wing. Each includes terms for non-aggression pacts between House Kurita and each of the others for a term of five years, and House Liao’s exclusion of the treaty has not been taken as a slight by the Chancellor or the Magestrix, as these two realms have always been trade partners and have conflicted little with each other over the centuries.
