Notes

In The Periphery, 2nd Edition (sourcebook) page 13, it is listed that one of the sons of Thomas Calderon joined this unit in 3042 as a Mechwarrior. No other information is given about Ian Calderon from that source on in any other Periphery themed manual in my possession.Deeppockets 02:14, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
