Talk:Solaris Games

The segregation of Solaris info is not incorrect and is cited by many Btech novels - when I can cite them I'll bring the info back. It's not irrelevant whatsoever to the Solaris Games and in fact is one of the reasons for their popularity - another Btech-novel citable fact. — The preceding unsigned comment was posted by 165.230.65.52 (talkcontribs) 9:04, 27 November 2007 (CST).

This article is not about Solaris VII or Solaris City, it is about the Solaris Games. Yes, Solaris City is divided into districts by nationality. That is relevant to Solaris, but not this article by itself. Something about the nationalistic rivalry between factions is relevant, but that was not the information that was added to the article.

Classic Battletech Mappack

Does anyone know which product this actually refers to? One of the section headers matches up with a single (misnumbered) page of the Gamemaster's Book from the box set; the rest don't seem to match any of the Solaris products nor the various MapPack products.

It appears it is supposed to refer to Mappack: Solaris VII. The page references match up. --HF22 (talk) 04:39, 6 March 2022 (EST)
That's what I get for going on section title references. Thanks. Madness Divine (talk) 11:26, 6 March 2022 (EST)

Mech-scaled sports

By any chance, would this include Battlemech-scale baseball? How would the pitching be done, via AC/20, Gauss or Rifle projectile cannon or by throwing a giant ball with a 'mech hand? What about batting? Any blunt melee weapon or more specific ones just for the games? Any restrictions on class or weight? Special rules compared to human-size baseball? Etcetera.

I would like some details on this, please. Kerry, Son of Spyro (talk) 22:42, 23 August 2023 (EDT)

What you are after is the Noisiel Summer Games for all your 'Mech sports needs, but doesn't have a full article yet on Sarna. The Touring the Stars: Noisiel PDF has the rules you are after. Cyc (talk) 02:47, 24 August 2023 (EDT)
Got a link to download that PDF? Kerry, Son of Spyro (talk) 18:22, 24 August 2023 (EDT)
Here's the Catalyst Store page - fun product. --Tumult&Travail (talk) 18:25, 24 August 2023 (EDT)

i'm now curious about other Mech-scaled activities that wouldn't be considered sports or combat. Like for example, a Mech-scaled marching band or military parade. Kerry, Son of Spyro (talk) 00:03, 29 September 2023 (EDT)
