Corsair "official" record sheet

I saw that Spacegy4 added data from record sheet. I would like to ask, what source should be more proper - from MwO itself (since it's a exclusive Mech of this game) or said RS. ManganMan (talk) 05:49, 3 December 2018 (EST)

In this instance, I'd argue that the record sheet takes precedence as it appears to be an official product, and is the most recent source, but Frabby is our canonicity expert. If there are differences between the two, I'd expect the one that's most recent and closest to canon to take primacy, with the differences between source noted in the article.

Is that record sheet an official release? Or was it just made up by someone for the con?--Cache (talk) 08:03, 3 December 2018 (EST)

I guess it's made just for the Mech_Con. I could try to recreate all the variants in MegaMekLab. ManganMan (talk) 08:28, 3 December 2018 (EST)

The full sheet with a little info on where he got it was posted by NeonKnight on the BT forum: Here--Cache (talk) 18:13, 3 December 2018 (EST)

Intro date

I have removed the intro date because although the current in game year is 3063, the fluff dates at least one "Corsair" as 3037 and given the use of the term as more of a classification than a specific design there may not ever be a proper fixed intro date.--Dmon (talk) 08:07, 4 December 2018 (EST)

My thoughts exactly. The RS date didn't make any sense to me. I would generally suggest to keep the Mechwarrior Online values, until fully canon sourcebook or similar publication appear. ManganMan (talk) 10:16, 4 December 2018 (EST)
