Sarna News: Bad 'Mechs - Icestorm

Talk:Planetlifter

Introduction Date

I noticed that the date here (2761) differs from what the MUL says (2320) by about 400 years. The ref for this article's year is in TRO 3057, which I don't have. According to the MUL, there is no "Planetlifer" unit in that book, but there is in TRO 3039 (hence the above link). Can someone help solve this? -BobTheZombie (talk) 18:16, 18 January 2014 (PST)

You are wrong, in TRO:3057p.156 is the Planetlifter introduction date 2761, but i think it is wrong, in TRO:3039 i cant found a intro date, in this case we use the MUL as correct date, hope this helps.--Doneve (talk) 18:26, 18 January 2014 (PST)
Okay, that's what I thinking; thanks for helping, sir! -BobTheZombie (talk) 18:38, 18 January 2014 (PST)
I'll just note here that the MUL now lists 2598 as the unit's introduction date. Tosta Dojen (talk) 10:17, 29 October 2020 (EDT)
Maybe worth noting it in the article that there are conflicting intro dates in various sources. I do agree that the MUL entry should be seen as the authoritative version. Frabby (talk) 04:24, 30 October 2020 (EDT) Addendum: Checking TRO3057 (and TRO3057r), I can't find any mention of the Planetlifter. P. 156 as quoted by Doneve discusses the Cameron battlecruiser. The year 2761 isn't mentioned either. No luck in TROs 3055 or 3050 either.
I pulled out my copy of TRO:3057 and found the Planetlifter on page 196, with an introduction date of 2761. Tosta Dojen (talk) 15:42, 30 October 2020 (EDT)
