Battletech Mercenaries Timeline in Brief

Postby MrPig » Fri Jun 11, 2021 1:30 am

Our AU begins in 3067. Instead of falling apart and setting off the Jihad, the Second Star League reorganizes, and launches a campaign to destroy the Word of Blake. For over fifteen years, the second Star League was a major player in the Inner Sphere, fighting back against the Jade Falcons, and launching peacekeeping missions within the Houses.

In 3085, after suffering betrayal from the Nova Cats and losing the confidence of the Great Houses, the Second Star League dissolved. The remnants formed their own minor power called the Liberty Holds, and the Fifth Succession War, which began in earnest in 3083, went into full swing. The SLDF split apart, many going back to being the ComGuard.

After about a decade of in-fighting, the Free Worlds League united under Captain-General Agatha Marik, who brought the remnants of the Word of Blake to heel under the reformed Covenant of Blake. What people didn't expect was a bold campaign that thrust the Free Worlds League to the forefront of power in the Inner Sphere.

In 3089, Agatha's campaign against her enemies began to fully form when ULTRA, a Tikonov Nationalist group, began its assault on the Chaos March. Eventually, the League's involvement bore fruit when ULTRA formed the Confederated Systems of Tikonov.

In 3095, everything changed when the Free Worlds League swept through the center of the Inner Sphere, and created the Duchy of Terra, seizing worlds of the Lyran Alliance and the Draconis Combine.

Now the year is 3100, and the Fifth Succession War is in the Age of Agatha. Years of fighting have exhausted each Great House, but the Free Worlds League's hold on the worlds around Terra is starting to slip. Anti-Agatha revolutionaries, identifying as Terran rather than any Great House, have started to revolt, and the Great Houses embarrassed by the Free Worlds League are happy to find allies wherever they can.

With warriors needed everywhere, the MRBC is recruiting any pilots bold enough to call themselves Mechwarriors.


This post is just big enough to be copy-pasted into Discord without splitting it up :)
