"The Adventures of Clan Spaniel" revolved around a series of anthropomorphic warriors led by their parrot [[Khan]] Polly on a never-ending quest to liberate their homeworlds from five tribes of evil monkeys, thinly veiled analogs for the [[Successor States]].

An April Fools scenario from [[BattleCorps]] showed the five evil monkey tribes joining forces to assault [[Strana Mechty]]. The monkey tribes representing the Inner Sphere nations were known as the [[Lyran Commonwealth|Blue Monkeys]], [[Draconis Combine|Red Monkeys]], [[Free Worlds League|Purple Monkeys]], [[Capellan Confederation|Green Monkeys]], and [[Federated Suns|Yellow Monkeys]]. The assault was led by the [[Anastasius Focht|One-Eyed]] [[ComStar|White Monkey]].
