Hey, I can't make a post for the Clans and not include the Inner Sphere as well.

While it might be...

...just a typical case of authors not writing anything smarter than the audience (or themselves), I like to think that there was an intentional parallel between the 4th Succession War and Operation GUERRERO in one particular aspect.

See, the reason the Davion onslaught met with such success was that the Capellans had their forces arrayed spiderweb style. Light outposts that would serve to hold against raids and skirmishes; a central well of force that could be dispatched to reinforce. This failed spectacularly when the AFFS attacked heavily across multiple fronts.

Now, you fast forward- a measly handful of decades -and look at how Sun Tzu plays it. He harries the Davion border marches by effectively reverting to the Third Succession War-style raiding and brushfire strikes that the CCAF had been geared for. Hit-and-run attacks fatigued FedCom forces, diffused their troops to manage trouble spots- such that when he launched his state troops' invasion, they met with much the same kind of blitz success that the Davion invasion did.

In summary, I feel the notion there is something like:

Finished a lance of mechs for my Davion Guard. With a Centurion, a Jagermech, a Templar, and an Enforcer.
