History[edit]
Meg Shaw was a fighter in Solaris VII's BBL for the Kroner Kings Stables during the Dark Age.[1]
She did participate in the 3086 Championship.[1]
On week three, she won her first match of the year against Anne Foster, using the short-range firepower of her Charger-3K to hammer Foster's Cudgel into submission before the Regulus Wrath Stables 'Mech could close.[1]
She fought and won against Susan Belden in week six.[2]
Prior to week Twelve she was well classified in Class Five Division. Coming in, the top three were separated by two points. Meg Shaw was a point ahead of rookie Peter Blaine and two points over Susan Belden.[2]
The match on week twelve found Shaw and Belden fighting between them. Both went head-to-head in a replay of the Week Six match. Shaw's Charger held the advantage over Belden's Victor, but Belden's Pontiac 100 autocannon can change the game in a heartbeat. Right from the start, Shaw stayed away from the Victor, peppering it with LRM fire. Belden used the spires for cover and maneuvered into the Pontiac 100's extreme range. The shot, which many people are calling the shot of the year, slammed into the Charger's left torso, penetrated the armor and ignited the LRM ammo. CASE blew the excess damage out the Charger's back, but Shaw was defeated by engine destruction.[2]
After week twelve she was ranked second. The Class Five Division was still anyone's to take, with the top five separated by five points. Susan Belden, Meg Shaw, Peter Blaine, Thomas Colby, and Theo Forzine would go into the second half of the season with an excellent chance of being declared the Division champion.[3]
She was paired for week fourteenth against Theo Forzine, with the second place at stake. Everybody expected a lot of the fight, but it became a game of hide-and-seek with neither side doing much damage to the other. The match was declared a draw after thirty minutes and both contenders were soundly booed as they left.[4]
Prior to week eighteen, Thomas Colby was still holding first place in the division, with Susan Belden three points behind. Third was Isadore Kelly, that after a five week winning streak passed both Peter Blaine and Meg Shaw.[5]
