Chris Rogers was a fighter in Solaris VII's BBL for the Black Eagle Stables during the Dark Age.[1]

History[edit]

He was one of the participants of the 3086 Championship.[1]

During week four he was paired against Soren Murphy from the Kroner Kings Stables for a Class Three Division match. Murphy, who had been manhandled the week before, threw himself into the match. He teased Rogers by darting in, trying to get Rogers to use his Hunchback's Tomodzuru autocannon. Unable to match the Clint's speed, Rogers was forced to stay near the Deep's rock spires to shield his back from Murphy's ER PPC. Murphy continued his baiting, narrowly missing being hit three times by the Tomodzuru. Rogers was struck with several shots from Murphy, tearing away armor, but not penetrating the heavier 'Mech's armor, but it was just a matter of time. In the nineteenth minute of the match a blast from Murphy's PPC penetrated the Hunchback's center torso and shredded the gyro, costing Rogers the match.[1]

After week twelve he was ranked third of the Class Three Division with 21 points, and tied with Eveline Wilson and Hiroyuki Hojo. They were all six points behind Tyrone Dyhr and thirteen points behind the Division's leader Anne Hung, with 34 points.[2]

Tempers flared yet again between the Black Eagles Stables and Regulus Wrath Stables during week fourteen. The Wraths were in fifth place, five points better than the seventh-place Eagles, and all eyes went to the Class Three match-up between second-place Wrath's Tyrone Dyhr and the third-place Eagles' Chris Rogers. Dyhr needed this match to have any chance of staying near Hung, while Rogers, six points behind Dyhr, needed a win to close the gap on Dyhr. The match was Dyhr's speed against Rogers' power. Under the watchful eye of League officials, the two squared off. Using the Phoenix Hawk's speed and jumping ability Dyhr went for a long-range sniping strategy against Rogers' Hunchback. For several minutes, the tactic worked, until Rogers began moving erratically and acted as if he had a systems fault. Dyhr moved in quickly, trying to take advantage, only to find himself staring down the muzzle of Rogers' autocannon. Rogers' first shot removed Dyhr's right arm, robbing the Phoenix Hawk of its main weapon. As Dyhr tried to escape, Rogers second shot stripped his right leg of all armor and most of its internal structure. After that, the match became a chase, with Dyhr as the rabbit. Despite being more mobile, Dyhr was hit twice more by Rogers, the second shot removing what was left of the right leg and most of the lower torso. It was at this point the match was called.

A furious Dyhr confronted Rogers in the Deep's 'Mech bay after the match and a shouting match turned into a brawl between Wraith and Eagle personnel that had to be broken up by both officials and members from other stables. BBL officials promised severe punishments for both teams.[3]

Because of the brawl, he had to forfeit his match on week fifteen against Asad Ibn Yasin. He was also fined with fifteen hundred Kroner and was warned that any more trouble that year would result in doubled fines and forfeited matches.[4]
