Will do when I get a chance Ice!

Who will be the MasterSlayer or Lord Slayer? Commander of the Slayer Brotherhood??

Thanks. You don't have to do all of them. The idea was that people here could do one or more if they wanted.

I didn't think about a Lord Slayer... I need to think about it.

If this was Star Wars and talking about Storm Troopers it would be the MISlayer

The poor Stormtroopers. They deserve a better treatment... Wait only the clones are the real elite ones. The others are regular guys or girls with some training.

Actually Mechwarrior Brotherhoods are first mentioned in the Terran Hegemony (see the old Star League Sourcebook) before this so those organizations do exist but they haven't grown monstrous yet. Matter of fact I contend that Federated Suns groups grew from their Terran forerunners. The Slayers could be a first example of this as they could have been born on Caph which was Terran and like believe that John Davion is the rightful First Lord and Regent of the Camerons.

Warrior Cabals formed in the Hegemony in the 2540s according to page 33-34 of the SLSB.

With the Slayers never exceeding two dozen members they would perhaps be notable but not a large Brotherhood.

Colonel James Braddock is a former Davion officer who spent seven years in a Draconis Combine POW camp, which he escaped 10 years ago. After the War of 3039, Braddock has made a name for himself as a mercenary for hire in actions against his former foe. Gathering a group of like minded former AFFS military members, Braddock and company have proven a thorn in the side of the Dragons and former allies alike as the two sides attempt to have peaceful relations as they concentrate on the Clan Invasion.

Piloting his modified Ostroc which he has named Wyrmslayer, Braddock has taken the design that already excelled as an urban combatant and improved upon it. With the replacement of the twin Large Lasers for the single PPC the design has lessened its overall damage at range but increased its ability to single shot a 'Mech at range and damage internal structures especially lower tonnage designs or shots that locate the Head. Maintaining the SRM-4 and Twin Medium Lasers the design has added the Hatchet that was unveiled in the 4th SW on the Hatchetman. Adding it has proven a deadly combination to the 'Mechs arsenal. In Braddock patented maneuver he dubs "Burying the Hatchet" Braddock jumps down from higher elevations striking his opponents with the Hatchet into designs sometimes cutting the 'Mechs literally in half.

Braddock's Company was blacklisted by the newly formed MRBC for its recent actions along the Draconis Combine border with the periphery involving the destruction of a power plant that cost the lives of nearly 10k citizens on planet.

I think that is what Ice Hellion had in mind from the beginning Bradshaw. Basically create 1 or more of the 24 Slayer (which he designed in the first post) with their Mechwarriors.

 
Or one of the more modern ones.

I first thought that the Wyrm was the one being slew and I thought why go for a heavier frame? Than I looked back at it and saw the Wyrm was no BattleMech but the Wyvern was one.

And yes, I would like some fluff. We will field a full unit of Dragonslayers

Very little is know about the pilot/'Mech known as the Manslayer, the 'Mech has appeared on over 40 worlds and in all of the major realms of the Inner Sphere over the last 10 years. Only recently has the Firestarter that the pilot has been using been upgraded with Lostech. Its been harder for us to confirm supposed sightings in the periphery realms. It took a long time for our sources to figure out the MO or modus operandi for the pilot. Its been confirmed that at least 30 of the raids were on underground trafficking sites of sex slaves details are still sketchy on some due to believed local interference in our investigations. The psych profile that has been written up is that its believed that the pilot either was a victim themselves or had a close family member or friend that was. Whether they are searching for someone specific or just going to where ever they discover locations at. Even how they are gaining on these sites is a mystery as local and regional security forces have not known of these sites until after cleaning up the mess.  Whomever this person is locals have yet to file any charges upon them though there are rewards being issued for information as vigilante justice is not approved in any planetary system. If you have information please contact your local Comstar representatives or message us at crimestoppers@comstar.com

Does this sound better

Very little is know about the pilot/'Mech known as the Manslayer, the 'Mech to date has appeared on over 40 worlds and in all of the major realms of the Inner Sphere over the last 10 years. Only recently has the Firestarter that the pilot has been using been upgraded with Lostech, from friend or benefactor we've yet to discover. Its been harder for us to confirm supposed sightings that have been reported by our agents in the periphery realms but we are still following up on those.

Its taken a long time for us to put together the subjects profile case, our head psychologist experts figure the MO or modus operandi for the pilot are based upon the following; its been confirmed that at least 30 of the raids were on underground trafficking sites of sex slaves; details are still sketchy on some due to believed local interference in our investigations, we've since requested higher level investigators to pay them a visit. The profile in the end leads us to believe that the pilot either was a victim themselves or may have had a close family member or friend that was. Whether they are searching for someone specific or just going to where ever they discover locations at has yet to be determined. Even intel on how they are gaining info on these sites is a mystery to us as local and regional security forces have not known of these sites until after cleaning up the mess.

Whomever this person is locals have yet to file any charges upon them though there are rewards being issued for information as vigilante justice is not approved in any planetary system.
We have let it be known on local planets if they have information to please contact their local Comstar representatives or message them at crimestoppers@comstar.com

The layout is complicated to read but I like your Manslayer.

I'll fix it when I get home out and about at the moment. Much easier to read off PC compared to mobile device

Oops didn't know that. Let me know easy enough to do. Fluff is usually the harder part
