About Me
Hello! My name is Nic Jansma and I run sarna.net in my spare time. I'm currently living in Seattle, and working at Microsoft on the Windows Client Performance Team.
I run Sarna.net and a few other websites in my spare time. If you have any ideas or suggestions, or want to help out, please let me know!
Sadly, these days, I don't play BattleTech much any more -- I haven't played the board game in a couple years. I've played most of the video games, a bit of Neveron, but BattleTech is still in my heart. I sold most of the non-rule books a while ago, something that I now regret, but you never know at the time. I hope others are out there still playing. It's great to see sites like Classic BattleTech still going strong, and several projects still being developed for BattleTech.
Feel free to leave a note!
History of Sarna.net
I started Sarna.net back in 1994. I had just bought BattleTech 3rd Edition and was getting into computers at the same time. Basic HTML and a few links later, and this site was born. Eventually, I began searching far and wide for every BattleTech file and tidbit I could get my hands on, and compiled it into the site. I've put in a lot of time and energy here, but it's all been worth it and I love the BattleTech community.
As of October 2006 I've converted all of Sarna.net into a wiki with hopes that the site will morph to what the community needs.
Thanks to everyone who helps out!
