all three of your cohorts will be

eliminated sorry Kristen we've got other

plans

[Music]

no

this is the inner sphere thousands of

planets colonized by humankind once it

was United under the star league but for

the last 300 years it has been consumed

by Savage

Wars until a new enemy appeared

mysterious Invaders known as the

Clans powerful and ruthless they struck

like lightning attacking every sector at

once but they made one big mistake they

attacked my home planet now in the

spirit of the star league ancient

enemies have reunited and we're going to

take back our

[Music]

galaxy

[Music]

[Music]

officially liberated from the Jade

Falcon

Clan and this is just the beginning

tomorrow we win back the entire

planet enjoy your Victory Adams sto it

interested in taking bondsmen planets

w*r I am solely dedicated to destroying

you and your lonly little

Strikers we just freed place from the

Clans let's not lose it again initiate

Imaging right beside you Adam let's show

these clanners The Steiner Brothers mean

business not just the Steiners major you

got the entire first Somerset Strikers

behind you right with you hawk I've been

waiting to take this jerk down for a

long

time malus and his buddies have come to

this planet once too often when this

battle is over free birth there will

there will be no need for me to come

again ready for info Lieutenant feed me

major we've got Clan toads approaching

from Vector

284 major watch out you are heading into

a trap quickly we must help

him your puni Cadets are no match for

Elemental Clan

Warriors got to lead the battle away

from from here before any non-combatants

get

hurt follow Vector 187 it'll give us the

advantage of Higher

[Music]

[Music]

Ground Adam Steiner you will not flee

this time fleeing is hardly on my

agenda now Franklin affirmative

[Music]

major their tricks merely postpone the

inevitable Victory will be ours my

former allies will quickly find we can

match their dishonorable

tactics our clan prisoners are still

under wraps well it's nice to see

somebody safe Franklin Kylie reports no

activity at the Academy but I I'm still

concerned lead the cadets back there to

establish a defensive

perimeter

understood coming you

[Music]

major I need you to cover

Franklin two against one

eh thanks for covering my exit guy and

where are we running off to in such a

hurry Captain

Ridder Captain R we have depleted

ammunitions and are withdrawing into the

academy good thinking Mr

Sakamoto

the prisoners have escaped correction

Sarat I have won the trial of possession

for these

Warriors don't worry about me stop the

prisoners from returning to the Dropship

Captain Ryder you have left me no

alternative but to VU wish

you come on come on it's get checked

already I wanted to make you bondsmen

and train you in the way of the Clans

but clearly you are not worthy of such

an honor watch your steps zero that's my

friend you're sh**ting

at huh put a great time for my weapons

to

malfunction guess that leaves me with

only one course of

action thanks Kylie I know that Banshee

meant a lot to

you do not try anything rash just think

of this as another test you cannot

retake Cadet

Kylie way to go

Kylie I had no idea you were so light on

your feet can we uh save the witty

banter for later

Sarat of the inner sphere you will

release Mech Warrior Siro and surrender

yourselves at once uh Kylie I think this

calls for a tactical advance to the

re forget them we Must Destroy major

Adam

Steiner Andrew pull back forget it Adam

I gave you an order now pull back

I happen to outrank you major the way he

charged up that hill his heat sinks must

already be

taxed just a little effort I can

overheat him no you don't know how much

punishment their mechs can

take warning heat SN malfunction

least I overheated somebody's back

malus we have to stop this insanity and

why would I stop while you are still

breathing because I'm issuing a bachal a

formal challenge which you cannot reject

the time for Ball's has long since

passed par you must listen if you ever

believed in coren

you must remember the honorable Warrior

that you are I challenge you to a trial

of possession for Somerset if I win the

planet is mine all Clan forces will

withdraw from the system and never

return and if I win then I will deliver

myself to you and serve as your bondsman

if I win you will not

survive but your precious Strikers will

and they must become my

bondsmen I agree to your terms well

bargained and

done under Clan law I must now select

the form of Engagement and I choose to

fight augmented in battl Mech

additionally we will fight without radar

or outside reconnaissance information is

a form of ammunition you will not have

at your disposal in this battle now you

may select the location I choose the

North country are you sure it's wise

fighting that Maniac on his terms I

trained in the North Country remember

not only in Mech combat but also in

survival tactics I should be fine and if

to

end and one way or another it ends
