Sturm auf Arc-Royal ("Assault on Arc-Royal"), by Stefan Burban, is the 23rd in the line of German-language Classic BattleTech Novels that Ulisses Spiele took over from FanPro and continued. It was initially announced as Arc-Royal unter Belagerung ("Arc-Royal under Siege").

Canonicity

Written in German and exclusively published in that language so far, Sturm auf Arc-Royal does not meet the current criteria for Canon in the BattleTech universe. As an official product published under a valid license, it should be regarded as apocryphal.
