Canonicity
I think we need an overall discussion on these clearly non-canon Mechs. Its ultimately confusing that MWO is the only game that receives this 'special' treatment when there are non-canon Mechs created in previous games, when it is a game that does not conform to BattleTech rules and does not play like it. It is my opinion that anything created for any Mech-related game remain non-canon and apocryphal. The Sun Spider and Roughneck are not on the Master Unit List nor do they appear in the board game, the BV is listed as Unknown, which should be the main criteria. It's silly that these require an entire 'canoncity' section as well, if this is the case that we are now 'canonizing' Mech game Mechs, then someone should go back through and start making 'canoncity' sections for every single one, including Mech Warrior 4 and further back. Me and others already done tons of work documenting apocrpyhal mechs into organized sections as it is currently stands. For now, reverting them to apocryphal is best until and if they ever appear on the MUL and in BT otherwise this subject is going to become muddier with sub-rules for apocryphal Thehawk (talk) 14:21, 22 March 2018 (EDT)
