Honor's Gauntlet
 |
A TEST OF LOYALTY...
Clan Jade Falcon's war efforts draw closer to Terra¸ but to conquer this ultimate prize¸ the Falcons' vicious Khan¸ Malvina Hazen¸ must be able to trust all of her warriors to carry out her commands without hesitation - no matter how much death or collateral damage they will cause. For Malvina¸ victory is the only thing that matters¸ and those who stand in her way suffer swift and brutal elimination.
Star Captain Archer Pryde is an unconventional Falcon MechWarrior who chafes at carrying out his Khan's terror tactics¸ but he delivers results in combat¸ so Malvina has turned a blind eye to his beliefs so far. But when civilians on a conquered world revolt against their Clan masters¸ innocents are caught in the Falcons' crosshairs. Archer and his fellow MechWarriors must prove their mettle to Star Colonel Nikita Malthus¸ the Khan's vindictive advisor¸ by carrying out their scorched-earth orders to the letter. But are these orders a betrayal of what it means to be a true and honorable Jade Falcon?
With both his loyalty and honor in question¸ Archer must run the gauntlet between duty and principles¸ or risk his own destruction...
