If you've found this page, congrats. I stumbled into BattleTech backasswards from a 2022 Arma 3 YouTube video and I've been slowly sinking ever since. I'm a big fan of BattleTech lore, own a growing collection of sourcebook PDFs (and some physical books- they're expensive!) and am working on writing up character pages...lots and lots of character pages.

Proud author of 3736 character pages! Also several random other things!
