I played MTG for 20 years before switching to BattleTech in 2022.
My area of interest is in better indexing existing content, particularly in bridging the gap between lore and gameplay.
For example, the https://www.sarna.net/wiki/Category:Miniature_Sets page does not contain info on the date of each set's release, number of minis, etc. In addition, most individual mech pages do not include references to the relevant miniature sets.
I am open to suggestions on how to create/maintain this list, but for now I'll just start with making tables and learning the Wiki syntax.
Superpowers: Excel and data formatting/manipulation.
