Bio[edit]

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.

Notes[edit]

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

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[edit]

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

Spanish Novels[edit]

Phase 2[edit]

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

Re-Reading the books[edit]

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.

I'm going Solaris[edit]

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[edit]

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.

Category Link: Category:Bloodnames

Phase 3[edit]

  • Maybe give table format as in Stables... (doubt)

  • 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

Phase 4[edit]

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

Not Started

Project Unit Command officers[edit]

List of Category:Military Commands.

Phase 3: The very Complex Phase[edit]

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[edit]

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