    Ya, it's too fitting, afterall, didn't humanity of LANCER live through there own little dark age? What if a second one were to occur? The galaxy is on the coinflip for utopia and a better galaxy or another grander dark age of war and chaos. The song fits all to well for it.

    @@jazzy4830 Yeah i follow the creators, only of them is the K6BD guy, i love his art so much. He also created the ttrpg Icon and just released a skirmish game called Maleghast, all by himself. Awesome guy. i've played the turn-based game as well but it was a long time ago, it was still quite raw, i need to see how it's doing now. But since i'm always starved for mech shit and it's quite hard for me to put a ttrpg group together these days i would absolutely kill for something like a Lancer animation of the same quality as Hathaway, or a big scope action game. Y'know what, we could at least have Lancer mods for AC6 lol. I pray for Lancer to grow big, really big to the point where it becomes a known multimedia franchise.

    Little Dark Age is so versatile dude. I've seen it used so much for grim dark stuff that I've come to solely associate it with that branch of fiction. Yet oddly, in a universe as hopeful as Lancer's, I still feel it fits. Whether it's overlayed upon images of humanities great achievements or behind the conflicts burgeoning under the surface of this seeming utopia it still fits. Wild piece of music, especially for something that, at least from the last time I tried to learn the lyrics, seems rather nonsensical.

    I want to make a campaign based of this song for Lancer. A people fleeing a dying world, countless souls huddling together in a ramshackle fleet of ships. All of them looking forward to an uncertain but hopeful future under the golden protection of the Utopian Pillars that loom large in their cultural memory. The Lancers are the Fleet's guardians and leaders, jumping into action and guiding them through their journey towards Union space. For humanity, it is going through the greatest, most enduring golden age it has ever experienced. For their people, it is their darkest hour, barely a meter of alloy between any one person and instant death. Reclaimed water, rationed food, and no privacy, for years upon years. It is their Little Dark Age.

All that nonsense out of the way: Fantastically put together MV! There's so much creativity in this fanbase, it's nuts. I love some of the BattleTech fanbase, but y'all over here doing it with less and still knocking it out of the park and I'm here for it!
