at the contest winner's submissions for the cover of the FedCom Civil War sourcebook, due out later this year, over on the Classic BattleTech site's main page...

I think you'll agree, it looks great!

It looks good. And I'm sure you're happy it has a FedSuns mech getting ripped by a Lyran for all to see.

While the 'Mech part has a FedSuns Victor getting ripped apart by a Lyran Zeus, you'll notice that the infantry part has a male FedSuns soldier kneeling over the body of a Lyran woman...

Somewhat more poignant, IMHO...

While brother and sister both observe what they have wrought over a destroyed cityscape and under the smoke of war...

Ok...helps to read everything posted on the various boards (Edit: directing this remark at myself, not at anyone else)...Brian Huss ("sarge" on the Classic BTech message board), the conceptual designer of the picture has confirmed that both soldiers, as you might can notice, wear nametags with "Huss" on them...Brian has just killed his sister...

War's Hell and Civil War burns the most, eh?

Ruger (good call, Vagabond...)

well i'll be sh@@ed.

i got it right, and didn't even see the names.

i just thought of the us cival war, brother against brother. but my reference was more directed at the brother/sister hood that was sharted between the two nations.

thou a part, thought they were actually brother sister.

"people fight, most of the time because they want to prove themselves supperior. some of these fights involve good people. people who are not bad guys, just guys doing what there told. our lives are precious, and no life should be treated with anyless respects." a quote from my book, the bloodied road.

All the FedCom needs is a common enemy. They'll put their differences aside, blow the enemy away, and start fighting with each other again. Typical Brother/Sister Relationship. I see it every day at home with my two.
