Description[edit]

The Dispossessed Cooperative stable on Solaris VII is a community of MechWarriors sworn to help each other in times of crisis.[citation needed]

History[edit]

The Cooperative was created in 3049 by several MechWarriors who, individually, could not break into the main circuit. After a very good start, the Cooperative's leader tried to form a global alliance of all cooperatives on Solaris. This movement gained the Cooperative several stables as enemies, and ended with the leader's disappearance.[citation needed]
