The huge Lyran conglomerate, Nashan Diversified, is hosting a Solaris Mech Tournament as a launching pad of their new advertising campaign featuring Binsby Berries. Nashan has extended 3 invitations to Scooby’s Scrappers (weird how that works out huh?) based on their recent successes and rumors of the advanced technology Battlemechs they may be able to field.

This tournament is not part of the official Solaris VII league and as such has some different rules. All of the matches are randomly determined multi-mech matches, fought in a large arena. The winner of each opening round match will win a place in the final battle royale. In addition, the winner of each and every round will be able to claim all of the surviving Battlemechs as salvage. Of course, this also means that you must forfeit your own Mech should you lose.

If you don't want to risk your own Mech you can still sign up and be granted a completely random Mech by Nashan Diversified. Of course, you will not be able to claim any defeated Mechs as salvage if you choose this option.

The judges will have a series of overrides, up to and including forced ejection, to deal with any malingerers who don’t press the battle, so beware!

In addition to the salvage opportunities the winner of each opening match will receive 250,000 C-Bills (1 WP) and the overall winner will receive 1,000,000 C-Bills (4 WP).

Result :

Almost all of these guys fight with established stables so they have fallback Mechs or Insurance. You still get the usual bonus when recruiting new Mechwarriors on Solaris VII.
