I’m surrounded by more than 500 people that can tell you the accurate range of an ER PPC, how many hardpoints it takes up, and in what chassis variants you might find it. MechCon is the culmination of all things MechWarrior and Battletech, bringing together fans and competitors from

The words “coloring book” usually bring to mind blank versions of cartoon characters that kids watch on TV, or cheesey restaurant placemats. If you’re like me, you grew up laying on the floor and coloring with your BIG box of Crayola crayons. On occasion my mom would sidle up
