- The first part of a new Tukayyid series. This part deals with the introduction of the battle and Smoke Jaguars part in the battle that ended the clan invasion of the Inner Sphere.
“But Focht, what would you have done if they’d found you?”
“Exploited their weaknesses. Like I’d been doing all damn day.”
"My Atlas _was_ right there."
Shot the poor fools in the face before going back to doing my damn job.
Clanners need specially bred warriors and armoured infantry (elementals) and advanced tech, They also need an extra mech in a star (5) to inner sphere (4) when they came up against similar troops they got there arses kicked, even the Gray Death Legion kicked there arses when using armoured troops
Depends on the clan. Clan Wolf, Clan Ghost bear and Jade Falcon have repeatedly should to be in conventional combat, far superior than to most of their innersphere counter parts. Clan Wolf especially, considering they have the top Merc unit with Wolf’s Dragoons. Theyre also extremely adaptable and were one of two clans to actually later reach Terra and war over it, and the one to win with and become ilclan. Mind you they do all this with MUCH smaller numbers and a strained as hell supply chain line. I get its cool to hate on the clans when you prefer the Innersphere, but lets give some credit here where its due. It took comstar to stop the first clan invasion by using the clans own dumb honor codes against theme with their own home turf advantage and weapons that were almost on par with the clans do to
Them hoarding all the good star league era after the innersphere went full stupid and nearly nuked itself into the stone age. I hardly consider comstar to to be an “the innersphere” regardless of its location, and as we found out later that weird space wizard cult wasnt any better than the clans. The me the Innersphere didnt truly start kicking clanner ass till they decided to trial of annihilate smoke jaguars over compensating asses.

Ahhh, Tukkayid! The place where Space AT&T told to the Clans:
"GET BENT, WEIRDO!"
ahhh yes, lull me to sleep with the dulcet tones of everyone's favorite trained sim-chimp
jokes aside, you certainly sound better than three years ago. Thanks for continuing to make content. You just keep getting better at it.

Ulric knew what was up. It's a shame most of the other Khans didn't listen to him, but hey, Clanners gonna Clan I guess.
he was the smart one that is for sure. Had they actually listened to him, the clans could have won quite easily I imagine.
smoke jaguars are so funny to me, they are the frothing at the mouth psycho stereotype as a clan lol
Yeah they were characterised as the evil bad guys so they could have a clan be wiped out by the Inner Sphere.
I can't ever hear or read a reference to Dinju Pass without thinking of the winning ending video to MW2:Mercs.
Still 1 of my all time favorite pc games
HEY. SMOKE JAGUAR! REMEMBER WHEN YOU HAD A CLAN?!?!
I got back into MechWarrior in the fall of 2022. Growing up, MechWarrior was the first game I ever played, so I was obsessed. Around 2014-2015, I kinda faded out. I saw MW5 Mercs on the Playstation store, got it, and started finding many RUclipsrs. Searching for Hotline Miami remixes, I found Jason Skye, then I found Sven Van Der Plank, then found many more thanks to him. And since I'm a lore fiend for any series I enjoy, Sven, Big Red and your LoreWarrior series are absolute gold mines!
Texicus sent me here.
Great revision, looking forward to the other parts. :)
It does strike me as rather un-clanlike however that Ulrich would refer only to their superior tech as their greatest advantage. I would've thought they see their heritage and biology or even their discipline and training as just as 'superior' to the Inner Sphere. Or perhaps he had a more realistic view on their traditions and beliefs?
I put that down to his understanding of the Inner Sphere. He knows a majority of his fellow clansmen are kind of indoctrinated and not clearly thinking about this as a total war, more as a prolonged trial. He turns this to his own advantage during the post invasion years briefly, but yes he is more of a realist compared to other Khans of the clans.
I'd say a mix of realistic view and overall battlefield doctrine. Mentioning superior training is a way to boost moral, but in this case he is flat out telling them what they need to do to win. Long range zapping dakka, supply lines, and not underestimating the enemy.
Of course, clanners being clanners, most of them didn't listen. And so they lost.
The real beauty to Tukayyid was that it didn't even truly matter who won. By accepting the battle to begin with, the Clans effectively lost the war already.
So what if the Clans won the battle? They'd sit there, having pushed the majority of their military through a meatgrinder, the entire momentum of their invasion gone. Great, they beat ComStar. Watch the Great Houses give a fuck after having been given more than enough respite to rebuild their own forces and a strategic picture that has developed towards a more static and attrition-based war than the blitz of the invasion. And that's a war the Clanners just don't have the industry and manpower to win.
Comstar: [batchalls you]
see that guy running away from the elemental .....that's me
Can't wait for more Tukayyid: Remasterd Edition.
You should catch @ Black Pants Legion video on Tukayyid Priceless ...!
@@vana.johnson8845 I have and it's one of my fave Tukayyid videos. :)

Long story short, Clans Culture make the ideas and tactics needed to fight total wars like this alien to them. Tho it lead to there technical superiority it left them lacking in ways to deal with more acem warfare.
Nazi Germany had technical superiority of many weapon systems but not enough troops and kept stretching its forces. Also Hitler's asinine orders which his generals found insane lead to they're ultimate defeat.
Basically yes. In short, men & mechs win battles, logistics wins wars. The clans had little in terms of logistics.
Wonderful work
Thanks :)
so was I the only one who happened to have discord open while listening to this and thought they got a DM @21:46
also at 13:37 if im not mistaken that is the roundfacer from dougram, witch battle tech yoinked and dubbed the griffon.
Well FASA made agreements with the company who created Dougram, so I wouldn't say they stoled it like Harmony gold would have people believe. When the purge of outside art happened, they didn't have to stop using their art, but FASA did just to avoid any potential issues rising. When it came time more recently to use the art again, the company was happy to make a new agreement. I can only guess because the anime wasn't very big outside of Japan and this way the art is seen by more people. Also the names are much better, roundfacer or Griffin?
I was just listening to your older version of this video today.
Wow, this new version is excellent! I also thought the older version was great as well.
Where does the text come from?
The battle of Tukayyid sourcebook.
great Campaign lore video
Uhm, Hoyt was not khan of the Smoke Jaguars. He was their Loremaster. The khan was Lincoln Osis.
Do you have the sourcebook? It says it in there, likely a mistake on the writers part which isn't uncommon for Battletech given the size of the universe. Remember all of this is from the book, verbatim, I haven't added anything here :)
@@CriticalRocket There are so many source books for BT and I came late into it, so I don't know which source book supersedes which one. I recall Lincoln Osis being Khan of Smoke Jaguars during Tukayyid from "Blood of Kerensky" trilogy of novels, and I also found info about this in "Battletech: Invading Clans" sourcebook.
@@MikeKnell2884 Correct Lincoln Osis has never been anything buy the Khan but for the battle, numerous Sakhan were involved such as the loremaster. I think the term is used shorthand in the book to denote leaders of their respective clans.
@@CriticalRocket There's inconsistencies in the various sources. "Invading Clans" says it was Khan Lincoln Osis's mech cockpit was destroyed. In "Battle of Tukkayid" it says it was Loremaster Hoyt cockpit that was struck and then his mech toppled over and crushed Osis, who was an Elemental. Possibly hitching a ride on the mech. I wish they'd iron those out in some revised editions.
@@johngolden3714 That would be nice to see. A revised edition of major sourcebooks using the new art and rule systems.
That was super entertaining, thsnk you!
I got all excited thinking this was an HBS Battletech mod.
gotta love that stupid clanner taking an orbital drop straight to the knees
Don't fuck with space AT&T.
Okay something that confused me. What do you mean when you say "Clan X bid away such and such galaxy" are you saying they gave up whole units? who were they giving them to?
Bidding rules for the clans usually go like this. Clan X wants something from clan Y. X challenges Y to a batchall. Both sides then bid what forces they will deploy for the upcoming battle. Now the aim is to bid as low as possible to show you are that confident of victory you need far less than your opponent. So when Smoke Jaguar bid away multiple galaxies they just put them on the bench so to speak.
These galaxies just sit there and cannot take part in the battle because they have been removed from the order of battle. The clans did this to be the first to attack Tukayyid, Smoke jag getting the first battle because they basically bid the lowest number of troops to achieve their objectives. This was exactly what the Comguard wanted and so it was easy to defeat them. Clans gain more honour if they can win with less forces than their opponent, but the Inner Sphere doesn't care about honour and it usually bites them in the arse because of it.
The battle of luthein was a mini tukayyid.
10:45, suddenly I think I understand why they chose Tukayyid as the battleground. :)
Geez, they seem to use an awful lot of Marik designs...
21:46, gotta remember to turn off Discord. :D Love the narrative!
Hippity hoppity! Get off my property!
Has there ever been tabletop official rules for the Clan dueling?
Total Warfare (and some earlier rulebooks) explain Clan honor rules, with guidelines on how strongly a certain Clan will stick to them and how to apply them to tabletop. They're not considered official rules though, since there's no way to balance them mechanically.
@@patrickcoyle5469 screw balance, battletech was never balanced anyway. As the meme goes: FUN IS FUN.
i love your Pshecdelic Metal music. what tracks are you using?
Logistics be a real bugger, huh clanners?
Can you do a lore video. Operation. Serpent and bulldog or the refusal war?
Yeah in the future I intend to run Luthien, Coventry, Wolcott, Serpent and Bulldog. Others may be things like the war of 3039, first succession war, second succession war, operation Klondike, the SLDF civil war and any other campaign sourcebooks.
Just imagine being that one guy so hungry to be the first one in the fight. That you not only land first but end up breaking pretty much half your body and STILL miss hitting the broadside of a barn. I mean if you could do that in a video game. It would make the highlight videos for years! Highlight videos of "Epic Fails!!"
He clearly watched a lot of Star Wars and thought Stormtroopers were cool (in reality...Stormtroopers are fucking terrifying. Yet plot armor. I mean, The Force makes the look like fucking losers).
You pictured it but didn’t mention the King Crab in the mech list
Honor in war is fighting untill your enemy is defeated... wheather that is dead, wounded or surrendering makes no difference, attacking them any further is pointless and cruel.
Holding back BEFORE then, endangering the lives of your command just so you can feel good about it... would be hilariously irresponsible if not for all the people dying for no damn reason.
What's the mech in the background at 5:31
Dezgra comguard filth...
Into music a bit too loud 🙂.
I will adjust for next time, though it was set at my usual volume level. Maybe the editor screwed up.
space at&t hippity hoppity get off my property.
