I'm thinking of doing a major overhaul on the Overlord page, especially the armament section, the section reading "The armament package -as originally installed in Star League era versions- outgunned every other DropShip in space," is especially troubling to me, as I don't know of any source that says that support that claim, and it's clearly outgunned by the earlier [[Fortress]] design. I wanted to check before making these changes in case there is a source that backs up this these statements. --[[User:Peregry|Peregry]] 04:41, 16 March 2010 (UTC) | I'm thinking of doing a major overhaul on the Overlord page, especially the armament section, the section reading "The armament package -as originally installed in Star League era versions- outgunned every other DropShip in space," is especially troubling to me, as I don't know of any source that says that support that claim, and it's clearly outgunned by the earlier [[Fortress]] design.

Designations
I was checking out the different types of dropships and looked at the Union class dropship and the Leopard and they both showed up with "Obsolete" after their names (i.e., Union (Obsolete) and Leopard (Obsolete)). I was wondering why we had classified them as "Obsolete" and why the Overlord showed "Original".
Just curious what the rationale was for doing that, especially since the dropships are in use in the 3rd and 4th Succession Wars. Thanks! Bdevoe 13:42, 1 August 2007 (CDT)
- Because BattleTech products make that distinction. IIRC, "obselete" refers to the 3025-era version, while "Upgrade" refers to post-3050-era versions. Scaletail 19:03, 1 August 2007 (CDT)
- Okay. That's fine with me. I don't have the products that list those as such, so I've never seen it used that way. Thanks for the clarification. Bdevoe 08:11, 2 August 2007 (CDT)
Armament
I'm thinking of doing a major overhaul on the Overlord page, especially the armament section, the section reading "The armament package -as originally installed in Star League era versions- outgunned every other DropShip in space," is especially troubling to me, as I don't know of any source that says that support that claim, and it's clearly outgunned by the earlier Fortress design. I wanted to check before making these changes in case there is a source that backs up this these statements. --Peregry 04:41, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
