Revision as of 10:53, 22 June 2020

I'm a fan since 1990 aprox, and thanks to internet I'll try to be up to date with my hobby.

My intentions are to add all information I do have on spanish publications on Battletech. And help on other topics if I can.

As a player we are running with my friends a Mercenary unit (the Oktober Guard) now fighting on 3046 against pirates, and clock moving to Clan Invasion arrival.

I'm also very active in the spanish forum (not official) [1] where I've even designed Mechwarrior scenario packs (a sort of BattleTech Dossiers, like BattleTech Dossiers: Lamenkov's Liability). The page is full of Spanish fans, our discussions and a bit of everything, even fan free products.

Today, 21/10/2019 I got to 33333 edits, what a nice number.

Notes

I'm suffering a peak load of work at the office that will affect the time I can dedicate to the wiki.

My List of Wiki Projects

Completed Old ones

Spanish Magazines

I'm trying to add all Spanish magazines to our wiki. At this moment I've added all the ones I do know about. Completed with Covers at this moment:

Global Magazines

Here I'm trying to add magazines on other markets that I do find and that do not yet exist in the wiki

Always on-going.

Spanish Novels

Phase 2

I do not own most of the Spanish novels, indeed only the first eight, for which I'll try to add also information that spanish translators might have created and also any possible translation error that I know of thanks to having read also the novels in english.

Work is on-going recovering all this information

Miscellaneous

This is add-hoc ideas I'll try to do. I'll add them here while I think on them. Wishes for 2020 are:

Re-Reading the books

I'm re-reading the books just trying to add minor units/characters that I do found along the way. It is going to be an enjoyable task.

On-Going.

Mercenary units

Phase 1

I'm trying to build articles on the minor periphery mercenary units like Cavanaugh's Cavalry and then then Arms of Thor, the Larsen's Loners, the Nelson's Longbows and for sure other minor ones that I'll find. Just finished these four + a few minor ones. Now I want to review the Field Manuals on Periphery to tackle those mercenary units not described in wiki. Outworlds Alliance gave me 3 happy surprises yesterday... more to come I hope. I keep going with the minor units...
This is by itself a fascinating world, though usually there isn't much information in them, I do like this :)

Always On-Going

I'm going Solaris

I intend to review all Solaris books and Battlecorps information in order to compile it and enhance that section of the wiki!! Lets Solaris for the coming weeks :) Two big mini-projects inside this one I intend to do:

Types of matches, home leagues... --> Always in progress

Phase 5

Review small histories and some "minor" RPG books that can add additional information (minor are in terms of Solaris VII relevance). Like:

==> Add article on the Solaris Gaming Commission‏‎

In progress. Any help identifying Solaris Histories that can be reviewed would be welcomed.

Phase 6

Creation of Articles of Solaris City and Stable characters.

  • Solaris City --> In Progress - Black Hills
  • Stables --> Not Started
  • Gangs --> Not Started

+

Review if list of places from here and in Solaris City Article: MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries/Solaris Advertisements --> Completed

Project Bloodnamed Warriors

Category Link: Category:Bloodnames

Phase 3

  • Maybe give table format as in Stables... (doubt)
  • Add political information on Bloodchapels and Bloodhouse politics when found
  • Amend formatting and decide what to do with the Notes
  • Review the books to to dig new warriors to add to the lists
  • Review units and create a valid link to them all as individual characters --> Completed

Not Started

Phase 4

  • Amend articles on specific bloodnamed warriors. Example: Angus Labov

Not Started

Project Unit Command officers

List of Category:Military Commands.

Phase 3: The very Complex Phase

This would mean digging all units and creating its commanding officers (and any officer / warrior that can be named in the unit article and then dig their name in the wiki to see if he commanded another unit, fought in an important battle or whatever we can find just with internal wiki digging.

Project Houses

Review the 5 Great Houses + Star League + Periphery History + Wolf's Dragoons and characters in the original books + the new handbooks.

Phase 3 - Review all TROs

Review all TROs for missing engine types.

Project Umayyad Caliphate and Castilian Principalities (Nueva Castile)

These two deep-periphery realms are missing a lot of information. I'll try to create articles for their military forces, history and characters. They deserve it.
