You decide.

I build Spreadsheets to verify the preformance of weapons in game in comparison to similar weapons in the real world.

I have managed to find links to many real world weapons, both under the old Stats from RPG 1st Edition, TR3026, RPG 2nd Edition, MechWarrior Companion and under the newer Stats from RPG 3rd Edition & LosTech and the RPG 3e Companion.

There is an existing game system to convert from LosTech / RPG 3e stats to BattleTech Stats it was published in Combat Operations and remains valid until Tactical Operations Manual or the Revision to RPG 3rd Edition is published (IOW {Not Appearing in Total Warfare / Tech Manual is not even implying that it was discarded - and since this is Primarily an RPG thing, I'd say it could not be declared discarded until the publication of the RPG book, if even then.)

Over the past number of years since an unfortunate encounter with a 3" cannon (some time during 2003 - 2004) i have seriously questioned my ability to communicate effectively, if i appear to repeat my self, it is because i fear that I have failed to communicate and am attempting to make it legible. The alternative is to call someone on their reading comprehension (if i have trouble ordering at a fast food counter, it might just be me).

If I say that something meshes in a Spreadsheet, give me enough credit to assume that I worked my way through many possibilities before I have Bothered to Comment on it - the Knee Jerk reactions of the community are not always correct... and i will validate or eviscerate the knee jerk reactions on their own merits, and not the reputation of the last one to blindly follow the community myths.

Take me at my word when it is given.

It's all that i have left.
