This forum remains at this moment as a place for the formerly active members of the MERC gaming clan. The MERC Clan had a active history in several games after it's beginning on The Freelancer MOD, WTS World CCN a decade ago.  The forum remains open and available to former clan members as well as those whom where previously granted guest status.  The dynamic and fluid nature of the Internet is a fact one must adjust for, if you have lost access due to change of e-mail and provider, contact for updated access. 

As to those persons wishing access solely to learn information about Freelancer, WTS World, or any other game the Clan or its members have been active in, Those individuals will be politely refused and advised there are more active and complete on-line sources for those inquiries.

ALL OTHERS must however, keep this in mind, if you attempt joining this forum, We ARE NOT seeking new members at this time, the Clan has suspended activities and this is for our history only.  The majority of recent sign ups, especially those random bogus e-mail using individuals, is for reasons far from friendly to on-line gaming discussions.. This has resulted in locking down of all membership abilities.  When anyone signs up at Mercenary's HQ forum they have ZERO ability to do or post anything, until a time when they are recognized as a valid member of our gaming community.  So if you where hoping to slide in the door and spam our forum, save yourself the time and please use your abundant and creative energy elsewhere.

Truth be told,, This was posted more for the benefit of those valid members seeking re-registration.   Others rarely read or understand anything posted anyway.  It only serves to help valid users in understanding, if you are PM'ed with a silly question about being part of our game community when signing up, now you understand why..

[Crimson Dark written and Illustrated by David C. Simon]

Graphic Novel Crimson Dark written and Illustrated by David C. Simon has a very "Freelancer" look and feel to it.  Well rendered (Noticeably in the newer works as he gains experience) this graphic novel is set in space on-board ships, and stations. With character interaction as well as combat on all levels from small arms to capital ship battles.  Take a moment to check it out, you might be drawn into it as well..

In case you missed it,,  There is a very cool new Battlefield Series game out on the PC, it is the sequel to the console only "Battlefield Bad Company." 

Take a few minutes to watch the Gamespot review of Battlefield Bad Company 2 at this >>Link<<  Do keep in mind the one shown is for XBox and Playstation 3, however the PC version supports 32 players Max (Consoles only do 24 MAX) and comes with more content the Console Players have to "Upgrade" to get.
