A Mech Commander must prove that he is a true mechwarrior, but also must prove that he has the skills necessary to command in battle.
In order to Join Clan Fire Mandrill, you must pass the ToA [Trial Of Acceptance]. ToA(s) can be conducted only by a FM member of rank 8 or above [Galaxy Commander, SaKhan or Khan]. The ToA consists of two parts
