Mjolnir Battle Tactics

**Group Link** | {{{Group Link}}}

## Founding

The name Mjolnir Battle Tactics comes from the Halo 2 manual. On the 5th and 6th pages of the manual are the words "Mjolnir," and, "Battle Tactics," and this was used in the creation of the name because it was considered catchy and easily abbreviated into, "MBT." The group was founded after its predecessor Halo Confederation was conquered by a high ranking member of the group that was secretly working for another, "agency."

## Halo Confederation

Halo Confederation was the original group that was founded to be a Halo 2 Strategy Group and everything was going well for the first 20 or so members. Then ItsMrSmiley, a seemingly helpful member came along and asked for a higher ranked in Halo Confederation. Through the naivety of Guardian Hunter who had no idea what group conquering was this rank was awarded with promises of lots of help and recruitment. For about one week this worked well when suddenly ItsMrSmiley demoted Guardian Hunter and everyone else in the group and made it a front for his group conquering group. Guardian Hunter repeatedly PMed ItsMrSmiley but he would not relinquish control based on the statement that he said the group had become corrupt and Guardian Hunter no longer represented the values of the group. After a day of negotiating ItsMrSmiley left the group without restoring Guardian Hunter to power so the group was leaderless and doomed to die for lack of a leader. Because of this Guardian Hunter PMed all the members of the group including the first member ever, Lazarus Hell, and other notable members John Anderson, EAGLES5, halo2vscovenant and they all joined the newly founded Mjolnir Battle Tactics group.

## Humpday

In celebration of their third anniversary, Mjolnir Battle Tactics participated in a Humpday challenge against Bungie on the 20th of February. They lost three games to none in an intense Humpday filled with memorable moments. Vegas had the odds out on MBT, with Bungie bringing in a ringer who had a rank of General in Halo 3's matchmaking. Things turned for the worse when in the final game, a Grifball game, MBT's warriors spawned outside of the court, giving Bungie an easy score. Bungie had clearly been watching tape of MBT's practice sessions, similar to the SpyGate incident. A rematch may be needed, who knows?
