I just wanted to tell you that this is a really great story. I have been looking for something like this to read for a very long time. Keep up the good work!

Interesting. Kinda cool.

Pretty good organization, I think. I have only one problem with it. The Marshalls or whomever is in command of a sector being equally versed in ground/space/air combat doesn't make much sense. Having a passing familiarity with the other branches is logical, however to attain a rank so high, I would think they'd mainly have to focus on command in one section of the military. I would think that it would make the most sense to have the overall commander be a space commander, with advisors for ground/atmosphere combat, since space would probably be the most important aspect overall. Other than that, good definitions, though it might have been better to post this seperately, and put references from the actual story to here, and the other way around. Anyway, update the story soon!

Here, I'll write a review and put this story over the 1-to-1 chapter/review ratio that is so rare in this section.

I really can't appriciate the space-fantasy of Battletech. Simply put, it's below my level. However, even this can have something to offer; as long as the author can remain internally consistent, the average reader will let things like transforming mecha space-fighters pass, similiar strangness. However, even after I stoped questioning the strange physics, I couldn't stop wondering why the enemy ships just didn't shoot the fighters with *laser beams*?

All in all, the author should stick with writing war stories in the setting, and remember to be internally consistent at all times. Your physics don't need to be based in any concept of reality to get an enjoyable story of it.

Nice. Will you be writing more? Seriously, I like this kinda stories. Please don't stop.

Look, man. I wanted to apologize for the way my story sucked. It was 7th grade. I'm really sorry. AND I apologize for my friends firing back at you. Oh well. I'm gonna try to not write CRAP anymore. So, uh, sorry.

By the way, I had the fic with 52 reviews, 49 of which were from my friends. Remember that one? Hopefully not. I'm trying to forget it, too.

It looks like a great start to an interesting story. I like the unusual intro to the flashback genre...makes for much more realism than the average 'when I was a youngster' intro. Anyway, do something with it...it is really interesting!
