Talk:Yen-Lo-Wang

I propose that this article be merged into Centurion (BattleMech). The article is extremely short and the categories it purports to be a part of is unlikely to hold more than half a dozen articles. --Scaletail 09:55, 10 May 2009 (PDT)

I'd suggest expanding the article then, rather than merging it. We've got a category for it so we might as well make use of it. Onisuzume 02:54, 11 May 2009 (PDT)

I agree that expansion of the existing article is preferable to merging with the main Centurion article. There are at least three distinct weapon sets that this mech has had over the course of it's career and this page would give us room to talk about them. We just need to find some decent sources that tell us what the loadouts were. Kittle 03:56, 11 May 2009 (PDT)

Okay, suiting actions to words, I've had a look around for sources on weapons loadouts. This wiki and also http://www.classicbattletech.com/forums/index.php?topic=1732.0 give Justin Xiang Allard's original loadout as being 2 Med lasers, AC20 and claws or hatchet depending on what rules you're using.

http://www.encyclopedia-battletech.net/ lists Kai Allard-Liao's variant having a Gauss rifle and three med pulse lasers, switching up to clan variants of each after Jaime Wolf offered him the Daishi.

http://www.wizkidsgames.com/mwdarkage/documents/MW_CA_142.pdf is a short document with details of Danai Liao-Centrella's variant of Yen Lo Wang, with a heavy large laser and LRM20 with Artemis IV, along with the hatchet and shield displayed on the model and mentioned in the fluff.

I've found info but someone else will have to put it together. I'm not in a place to put it together coherently right now. Kittle 04:56, 11 May 2009 (PDT)
