"How the hell is a blip that large moving so- IT'S COMING RIGHT FOR ME!" [Autocannon and missile fire.] [Sound of shearing metal.] -- The last words of a mercenary investigating a Kuritan bioweapon black site.

This is the Battletech Gothic that Catalyst is too cowardly to make.

@NinjaDebugger Oh, the sashimono with "furinkazan" is an excellent detail.

@Illuminatus it was either that or DICK BUTT, and only one of those is appropriate for the Draconis Combine 😂

@isd_d Oh, it's in the alt text, as usual.

It's "Fu Rin Ka Zan", the semi-apocryphal banner of Shingen Takeda during the warring states period in Japan. His actual banners were the same idea just written out in full, making them very fucking wordy, the abbreviated version was popularized by a novel.

Swift as the wind, silent as the forest, fierce as the fire, steadfast as the mountain.

@NinjaDebugger Ah, I did check the alt but somehow something useful just went by me. Sorry! 😅

@NinjaDebugger Absolutely nothing wrong with that. I think I skimmed it too quickly conenct the translation with the four symbols 😄
