  • A good project - a very good one - would be for someone to re-write these definitions into the Dictionary. --Revanche 01:20, 5 October 2006 (CDT)
Indeed. Much of this could be split off, and some of it should be duplicated there, purely as to make the dictionary a more useful resource. --Xoid 20:07, 3 February 2007 (CST)


  • In the Clan Sea Fox entry, there mentions made of ArcShips and CargoShips. The original editor capitalized these, making me think they are Dark Age classes of spaceships. I've linked them, in the case they deserve their own entries. Any info on these two possible classes of ships would be helpful. --Revanche 13:28, 5 October 2006 (CDT)


  • There is a disconnect in the Ranks section: In the 'Origins of Stars,' it says that 2 ASFs make up a point, but in the table, 213.132.179.195 wrote that it is made up of 1 ASF. What's the right answer? --Revanche 07:52, 20 October 2006 (CDT)
My gut says one. This source here: from Total Warfare, says two. If someone can get a "final" version of it (i.e., the actual book) we can source that. For the moment though, I think 213.132.179.195 was right. --Xoid 20:07, 3 February 2007 (CST)

Two areospace fighters OR one Navel Vessel (DropShip, JumpShip, or Warship) equals one point. Reference (via ISBN) follows: 1-55560-343-2 Battletech Field Manual: Crusader Clans 1706 p.9 (in a chart) 1-55560-351-3 Battletech Field Manual: Warden Clans 1711 p.10 (in a chart) 76.171.210.251 04:49, 15 July 2008 (CDT)

Too long?

This article seems WAY too long. It's comprehensive, which I like, but I think we should split this up into multiple articles and branch off this main article. Thoughts? Bdevoe 13:24, 18 September 2007 (CDT)

It clearly is too long. As Revanche and Xoid previously discussed, I think the first step would be to move the Clan terminology to the Dictionary, or even their own articles in the case of some of the longer things like Trials. Most of this was ripped from Wikipedia, so, like many articles in the same boat, we need to figure out how to BT-Wikify it. --Scaletail 16:43, 18 September 2007 (CDT)
