  • Mechcommander: Gold Manual
    SUPPLEMENTAL A BRIEFING ****CLASSIFIED COMMUNIQUE**** Commander, as I stated in the vidcom, I am canceling your orders to return home. I know this is very tough on morale—you and your men deserve some R&R after your distinguished service in the attacks on the Clan Homeworlds. But I know that you understand the need to finish the job: to eliminate this threat to the Inner Sphere once and for all. On a positive note, Battalion has sent some new ’Mechs and weapons your way that should help bolster spirits some. • Three new Inner Sphere ’Mechs and the specifications for three new Clan ’Mechs. • Six new vehicles. • Five new weapons. • The waypoint feature. • The ammo conservation fire command. • Difficulty level settings. • Fire support mission hotkeys (for large and small artillery, sensor probes, and camera drones). In addition, Commander, keep your troops at combat readiness with Mission Editor. Create new solo or multiplayer missions on either Port Arthur or the latest battlefield, Cermak. Mission Editor includes: • Terrain, overlay, and building palettes for maximum geographic and structural flexibility. • Toolbars that allow you to manipulate your map in a variety of ways. • Unit and vehicle palettes through which you can detail variants, orders, speed, and colors, to name a few. • Objectives tools through which you can mastermind a scenario and play it out.

    INTRODUCTION Hello, fight fans! And welcome to a super-special, epic-level edition of the Warrior’s Arena, the weekly vidzine where we cover all you need to know in the latest and greatest events in heavy metal combat entertainment! Highlights for this week: “The Return of Tassa Kay?” – We talk about rumors that Star Colonel Anastasia Kerensky may be visiting Solaris VII next month—and whether she’ll have time for a few flashy Trials in the Coliseum while she’s here! “Countdown to 3137” – We talk about the early favorites for next year’s Grand Championship, both in the individual warriors Classic Circuit and the Combined-Arms Circuit. “He Said/She Said” – The war of words heats up between former SGB broadcast commentators Dave Parmenter and Gwen Klornax. Did the agreeable angel of “Solaris Game Watch” really take “unfair advantage” of her intoxicated co-host during the 3136 New Year’s Gala, or is Parmenter just blowing smoke after learning his contract with the network ended soon after? “Spotlight: The 3146 Royal Fantasy Tournament!” – And, of course, the event that everyone will be tuning in for this fight season: the 3146 Fantasy Tournament! An event so special this year it’s even earned its own “theme” name! Yes, it’s an extravaganza of fire, metal, flash, and thunder! So, brace yourselves, fight fans, and tag in! This week’s issue is exploding with surprises you don’t want to miss! –Warrior’s Arena Weekly, Solaris Digital Distributions, 1 September 3146 Sample file HOW TO USE THIS BOOK The ’Mechs and battle armor described in Experimental Technical Readout: Solaris Royal Fantasy Tournament provide players with a sampling of the custom designs that have arisen in the deadly gladiatorial arenas of Solaris VII’s dueling circuit.
