Prologue

A thousand years from now, humanity has spread across the Inner Sphere, thousands of habitable worlds in a region only a thousand light years across.

While other colonisable worlds exist, none are in as close proximity as they are here and thus it's the centre of human civilisation.

Originally colonised under the Terran Alliance, the Outer Reaches brought independence and an Age of War to the Inner Sphere.

Interstellar realms were formed and through alliance or conquest the Great Houses emerged as their rulers.

House Cameron of the Terran Hegemony united their five neighbours into the Star League, beginning a new age by conquering the four Periphery Realms in the bloody Reunification Wars.

Internal tensions and weakening leadership left the Star League decaying and when Stefan Amaris overthrew House Cameron the Great Houses let the mighty Star League Defence Forces wear themselves out while plotting against each other.

When the Council Lords proved unable to agree upon a new First Lord, Aleksandr Kerensky led the remaining SLDF soldiers away into legend and the Succession Wars broke out, pitting the five Great Houses: Davion, Kurita, Liao, Marik and Steiner against each other.

The Succession Wars raged for centuries and the advanced technologies of the Star League, prized and fought over, have in many cases been destroyed.

In the shadows of the Inner Sphere, ComStar plots to reunite the Star League under their guidance and far away the descendants of the SLDF have their own plans.

In a future of warfare, the ultimate war-machine is the BattleMech.

Thirty feet tall, powered by a fusion reactor, capable of fighting on any terrain and carrying enough fire-power to lay waste to a city.

Within each is one man or woman, a mechwarrior, highly trained and entrusted with this power to fight for their lord, for glory and for filthy lucre.

"Cool setting and plenty of potential fun. Hum... I wonder who I am going to send here... Oh... I have an idea..."
