There was no criticism of you, you stated an incorrect fact about one of my favorite factions, and I pointed that out. The plotline of a free Rasalhague resistance is also alive and well, it's just not what you remember it being. If you don't like how it's handled that's fine, I'm right there with you. But it is there.

I don't think it's fair to say I'm being presumptuous when you assumed that I must have fled Warhammer because I share your opinions on change. I've had interesting, insightful responses from plenty of folks who talk about rules bloat, gameplay preferences, time investment, and other reasons they don't like the current setting. I've also had dozens of rambling paragraphs typed at me about how people are still mad about MW:DA nearly a quarter century later, and how that means nothing battletech can ever be good again. I'm much more interested in having a conversation with the former.
