It has been a long wait.

When this contest began our enthusiasm got the best of us. As deeply as we were all involved in ushering Classic BattleTech through its rebirth, we lost track of the sheer amount of work required to get all that we wanted done. We crumpled under deadlines and pushed ourselves past the breaking point. Projects slipped through the cracks. This was one of them.

And it was the one we should have completed first.

This book is written entirely by BattleCorps subscribers. It's our gift to you to present it to you in a form that you are familiar with, so that you will see that we have not forgotten you. All of the text, all of the statistics, come not from us, but from your submissions to the contest.

So now you have in your possession both the final project and our apologies for the delay. We hope that you're pleased with how it turned out. The next time we do this, we'll do it better.

These designs are legal for tournaments played at the Gen Con Game Fair®, Origins Game Convention®, and other convention tournaments, alongside the record sheets found in the various record sheet books published by FASA and/or FanPro. (Note that only those designs that meet the requirements for a tournament unit selection will be available for use in a given tournament; i.e. if a Unique 'Mech has mixed technology and a particular tournament does not allow mixed-tech, it will not be allowed in said tournament).
