In [[Natural Selection]] The Red Corsairs Mech appears to be a BLR-1Gb2 but uses clan technology. Is this worth noting as another variant? <br/> [[User:Mop no more|Mop no more]] 11:44, 7 March 2010 (UTC) <br/> [[User:Mop no more|Mop no more]] 11:44, 7 March 2010 (UTC) − − :Sure, why not? Just provide the reference when you write the variant. --[[User:Revanche|Revanche]] <sup>([[User_talk:Revanche|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Revanche|contribs]])</sup> 12:40, 7 March 2010 (UTC) − − I wasn't sure where the extra tonnage went from upgrading the ppc's and large pulse laser to clan, so I added heat sinks. The book mentioned that even after firing both ppc's and the large pulse laser, that the battlemaster was still running cool, so it seemed to fit. Is that the right thing to do? [[User:Mop no more|Mop no more]] 08:18, 8 March 2010 (UTC) − − : I would say so. I distinctly remember seeing a 'canon' record sheet for that mech in one of the BattleTechnology or MechForce magazines. Sadly, I don't have it. BTW - are you certain the medium lasers were ER? I had thought they were pulse. Just a thought. [[User:ClanWolverine101|ClanWolverine101]] − − ::I actually disagree (sorry, ClanWolverine101!).I'm from the point of view that we don't 'decide' anything, just report. If you can find the record sheet that CW is talking about, it'd still be apocraphal, but supportable. However...I'm saying this as an Editor (not an admin). Putting a <nowiki>{{cn}}</nowiki> after the statement should suffice, and might allow a future Editor to seek out the right answer and reference it accordingly. (IOW, I won't roll back your statement.)--[[User:Revanche|Revanche]] <sup>([[User_talk:Revanche|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Revanche|contribs]])</sup> 16:18, 8 March 2010 (UTC) − − ::: Sorry, but no. Since you don't ''know'' that it has added heat sinks, this is just a thesis and it's really nothing but fan fiction at this point. For wiki purposes, the right thing to do would be to state (only) the information that is actually available from the source(s), in this case the novel. You don't have to present complete specs. If you don't know something, leave it out (or state that you don't know it). But don't make up things and present them as if it were canonical. − ::: What has occasionally been done on BTW is that you present a thesis, but it must be based on some evidence to warrant inclusion and must also be clearly marked as such. See [[Super Griffin]] for an example how to treat unclear technical specifications. − ::: As for an (apocryphal) record sheet, that would most certainly warrant inclusion, however as a separate entry and clearly marked as apocryphal. Because the Red Corsair BattleMaster as such is canon, even though we seem to lack certain bits of information about it. [[User:Frabby|Frabby]] 16:31, 8 March 2010 (UTC) − :::(written at the same time as Revanche's reply above.) − ::::Oh - what the hell. You're both right. I don't have the source (nor do I remember it clearly). It was my vague impression that the medium lasers were pulse, but now I have to go back and read the novel. I remember trying to reconstruct it (from the book, not the magazine) in home-game scenarios. I believe that one had a Clan XL Engine, all the lasers were pulse, and it was absolutely loaded with double-heat sinks. Obviously, this was in no way canon, but it did allow the design to meet the specs from the novel as I read them. In the end, there has (apparently) never been a canon publication of this mech, so it won't ever really be resolved. [[User:ClanWolverine101|ClanWolverine101]] − :::::Oh, the irony. --[[User:Neufeld|Neufeld]] 20:56, 15 May 2010 (UTC) − :::::: However... the novel does make it clear it could fire both ER PPCs and the Large Pulse Laser and barely even register on the heat gauge? [[User:ClanWolverine101|ClanWolverine101]] 05:16, 16 May 2010 (UTC) − ::::::: Yes, but I wasn't commenting on that. It was your lines " Obviously, this was in no way canon,", and "so it won't ever really be resolved.", that are so funny now. --[[User:Neufeld|Neufeld]] 07:14, 16 May 2010 (UTC) − ::::::::Makes you wonder if Herb keeps tabs on what we get upto around here ;-P --[[User:Dmon|Dmon]] 07:21, 16 May 2010 (UTC) − ::::::::: ... see, I didn't know what you guys were talking about and THEN I saw the product announcement. I am in my happy place now. *GLEE* [[User:ClanWolverine101|ClanWolverine101]] 07:59, 16 May 2010 (UTC) − ::::::::::FYI, the moratorium policy specifically allows for correcting information based upon newer sources. --[[User:Scaletail|Scaletail]] 21:28, 16 May 2010 (UTC) − ::::::::::: Here's hoping it doesn't amount to a ret-con. :P [[User:ClanWolverine101|ClanWolverine101]] 01:33, 17 May 2010 (UTC) − − == TRO3085 Variants == − − There are several variants listed in [[Technical Readout: 3085]] but these are either rehashes of Project Phoenix designs or lack enough information (like model number) to enter into the list. I've updated the Update Needed tag to show that Record Sheets 3085 Unabridged should be consulted to define those 'mech variants. In the meantime I've added TRO:3085 references to the appropriate variants.--[[User:Mbear|Mbear]] 17:24, 15 December 2010 (UTC) − − == Hanse Davion´s Battlemaster == − − In the german version of "Blood Legacy" from the Blood of Kerensky trilogy, by Michael A. Stackpole, Hanse Davion uses a LRM-Launcher from his Battlemaster during a training-fight against Kai Allard-Liao − Is this a translation error, or is Hanse using a modified version of a Battlemaster? Sorry about my english - TonyStarkMF (15:28, 27 March 2019) − : I doubt you'll see this now, and I'm regretful we didn't respond earlier. However, the best place to respond for questions like these is on the official forums. You're much more likely to get an immediate answer.--[[User:Revanche|Revanche]] <sup>([[User_talk:Revanche|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Revanche|contribs]])</sup> 08:38, 6 May 2021 (EDT) − − == BLR-1P from MW5 == − − Minor correction to the description for this mech. It has two small ballistic hardpoints in the left arm (only) and those come with MGs in the stock build. There is no MG hardpoint or MG in the right arm, it (the right arm) has a large energy hardpoint with a Large Laser stock. − − I have the mech in game, right now, and double checked the description vs the in game loadout.{{Unsigned|67.166.228.67|12:35, 12 June 2021}} − − :Thank you for taking part in Sarna's BTW with your error identification. Hopefully, someone as knowledgeable as you will be along to make those edits. However, I encourage you to make the edits. There is little you could do to screw it up and if you need help, just reach out and ask someone (here or on Discord). --[[User:Revanche|Revanche]] <sup>([[User_talk:Revanche|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Revanche|contribs]])</sup> 12:48, 12 June 2021 (EDT)
