Note that I never use weapon(s) of mass(es) destruction(s) and I never do real life violence and I never do non-fiction violence. I'm only curious when I ask these following questions:

1, Given that BattleTech BattleSpace rulesbook Weapons of Mass Destruction entry that I think said that the Clans usually prefer to win battles with least loss of life, does that mean:

a, that each Clanner tries to win every battle, except Trial(s) of Annihilation(s) battle(s), with the least loss of his or her life;

b, that each Clanner tries to win every battle, except Trial(s) of Annihilation(s) battle(s), with the least loss of his or her life and then considerately all other jointly Clanner lives of same Clan;

c, that each Clanner tries to win every battle, except Trial(s) of Annihilation(s) battle(s), with the least loss of his or her life and then considerately all other jointly Clanner lives of same Clan and other jointly allied Clan(s);

d, that each Clanner tries to win every battle, except Trial(s) of Annihilation(s) battle(s), with the least loss of his or her life and then considerately all other jointly Clanner lives and then considerately all Inner Sphere lives (that may explain why Clan Jade Falcon tried to brainwash Inner Sphere personnel on Somerset (and perhaps elsewhere) to believe that the Clans conquered Tharkad.

And Kristen Redmond originally wanted to capture and put the First Somerset Strikers be in Clan Jade Falcon.

2, Also, given that Inner Sphere forces sometimes use Medipatches or other items to reduce lives lost, how frequently does that occur?

Back when I first started playing Battletech, with others beyond my brother and two friends in the neighborhood, we came up with really cool internal treaty thing that we never allow nukes and other NPC related weapon systems to be used in our games. So really the best place to leave nukes and such is in the realm of the authors and as background plot devices, not anything that is needed to be used by the players during a and this part you might want to pay attention to, a LANCE size engagement at the smallest and a COMPANY size engagement at the biggest. That is the scope and scale of the game, anything else is outside the realm and scope and thus all for the plot devices to give the universe reasons to why things happened or why a factory that makes the Orion is now a glowing pile of rocks.

In case the long winded comment didn't get through, they are AREN'T needed in the normal game.

Karagin, I have no idea why you keep providing serious responses to this guy.

Alayne/iLike/whoever he is pretending to be now is just an idiot with nothing better to do than bother a forum with half a dozen active members.
