								| Hello, allow me to introduce myself. 
 My name is Ghost Writer and I've been playing Battletech off and on for about 10 years now. (Sadly more the former then the later)  This seems like quite a nice community, so I thought I'd say hello!
 
 As befits my name (and my status as a newbie in this forum) I will try not to make too much of a nuisance of myself...at least not at first

 P.S. Just out of curiousity, the "Project Pheonix" text for the new Thunderbolt has a mention of a Mordel Blacknight.  I know this sounds like a silly question: but would it be the same gentleman?

 They are the same person, alright.  Mordel did some computer work for Warner and Warner introduced Mordel into the fluff in thanks for his services.
 
 Mordel's kinda like the Godfather that way.

								| You imply, Vagabond, his head had ever shrunk.   
 There's a reason Fearless Leader doesn't come out much...his head doesn't fit through the door!
   
 Hiya Ghost Writer, welcome aboard.

								| Welcome to this humble establishment Ghost Rider! Seeing as how your status with Comstar is still as a recruit, perhaps you would like to reconsider and join our glorious forces within the Draconis Combine. The only truly rewarding military to be involved in.

 But, 'round here Ghost Writer, the Dracs talk big.

 I Have to agree with the Major.  And I too had ot settle for ComStar since there was no choice of AFFS or AFFC.

								| Thank all of you for the warm greetings! 
 I was actually wondering about the lack of Fed Com options.  I mean, I understand that it's not feasible to have every Btech faction. (What you mean the Lothian League *isn't* an option?) Nevertheless, I was a little surprised to find that both the AFFS and the LCAF were excluded.
 
 I'm going to assume the B&G's not in the Black Hills.

								| As I'm a little tired of answering why some factions aren't available I'm sure one of these fine people will be glad to answer.

When his schedule permits him to scan the other Factions Insignia's in, and upload them to the server, and create the Factions Profile, He will do it..... So Sayeth the Great and Powerful Oz... errr Mordel!!!!!
