IĈm not sure what Molle and the rest expected because, to be honest, we made most of it up as we went along. Like any smart client, BoB cut us loose and waited to see what would kind of return their investment would yield.
But I thought MC wouldn't even consider offers from clients that did not come to them with a well thought out plan? 
have the train try and blow up another super capital and see what you get.
we mercenaries bleed, and get hella ****ed.
and I mean hella.

Did we take your main's space? So sowwy.
At any rate, there was a plan. Circumstances changed, however, and we came up with a new plan to meet the circumstances that gave us a personal stake to add on top of the professional one we already had. BoB leadership simply decided that it was worth our fee to let us take an enormous risk with potentially huge returns. Pity that didn't work out...

Ah ok. Thanks for clarifying that MC are only professional when it doesn't conflict with their personal goals.

man, i wish i had 20 hours a day to devote to this game like you guys do. good job on the operation.
Once NOL has been purged with cleansing fire, and all the vassals are put to the sword, I'm sure we'll have a lovely little cold war, your bloc and ours. It'll be fun. But there won't be corruptio |

Damn it, I went to sleep last night and totally forgot that Sel is making a post! 
I'd just like to extend my personal thanks to all the alliances who have fought with, and against us. It's been a blast.
Until the next time.

Instead of getting snipped, Im just going to say that this space is intended to be a flame, bait, and put down to the 'south', with MCBoB being the main recipients.

It's a great write-up. It's also crashingly biased, glossing neatly over many (not all) negative details and puffing up the MC like a good brochure should.
Biased? Hell yes. This is the story from our perspective, told in a manner to provide both entertainment and a sense of accomplishment. However, I did try to convey a sense of the desperation we felt in the beginning and awe at the sheer magnitude of the task we were presented with. It wasn't all roses by any means and there were several times when the odds we faced and the time involved had many of us questioning our sanity / commitment.
While I would have loved to try to write things up from another pespective it would be an insult to those we fought against to try to surmise their feelings on the war. What's more, I simply ran out of time and energy. The section on Branch and Tenal could have been fleshed out a bit more but, then again, so could a few other chapters as well.
All in all, I figured after a week of working on this thing on an off it was just time to post the damn thing. 
Originally by: Phrixus Zephyr
TRI was never at any point invading Tenal, we were there on a few major fleet nights and stayed in the vacinity to back up our then allies.
TRI didn't pull out because we were never really there.
M8, my telling of the tale may simplify certian happenings but that's mainly due to time contraints. I hope you didn't take offense to anything written. I'm aware of TRI's role in what happened and how they played their cards.
Honestly, this report could have easily been twice as long with much more detail and background on certian events. Perhaps the next time we embark upon such a venture I'll make it a point to take some time and write things up on the fly a bit more.

My time flying with the MC showed me a new level this game can be played at. It was an honour to fly my capitals under the command of selene, loxy and co. u guys rock!!
The fleet support commander (you know who you are) is the best FC i have ever had the pleasure of working with. I'll never forget hearing u say "I want my lights and my lights only, to jump through and kill those battleships" And the contests??? LOL brilliant
Would do it again, any time, anywhere.
Thank you for the experience MC. Oh and of course the new house 
Awesome report selene

Nice summary Seleene. It was an incredible ride.
Huge welcome to our new brothers in SERA. As fine a group as any in eve.
Many thanks to the alliances that fought side by side with us day in and day out. We could not have done it without your help and dedication.
To our foes, thanks for making the past few months all the fun that it was. It takes two (at least) to tango in this game and you folks danced well.

Well done to MC and all the alliances that took part. Having been an Alliance grunt on the ground for parts of Deklein, Branch, and Tenal, I have to say I was absolutely astounded by the pace, the relentlessness and the sheer effort that MC and allies put in to steamroll over the north like that. The energy was infectious!
