Across the centuries, the fate of the Inner
Sphere changed time and again with the actions
of one MechWarrior and one ’Mech fighting
at the crux of history. Their stories became
legends passed down through the years, and
now these legends and their ’Mechs stand
revealed as never before.
BattleTech: Legends
depicts fifty-two of the uni-
verse’s most famous—and infamous—MechWarriors
and their ’Mechs from every era of
BattleTech
includ-
ing the upcoming ilClan era. Each entry includes gor-
geous full-color portraits of the character and camo
specs for their machines, and delves into their
battle history as a MechWarrior to reveal all-new
details never before published. Finally, each
era section kicks off with all-new fiction by
some of
BattleTech’s
own legendary authors!

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
To all the fans and contributors of
BattleTech
past and present, thank you for all your love, support, and good times over the years. This book is for you.
—Ray Arrastia
Aaron Cahall extends a heartfelt thank you to our writing team, including the fiction authors and character entry writers, who found ways to tell new stories with
some of the most well-known characters in
BattleTech
history. In addition, the fact-checking team went above and beyond with this very, very difficult, canon-laden
project and is deserving of special recognition. The hundreds of notes they generated were challenging, intricate, and sometimes frustrating, but undeniably made
Legends
a much better book. Thank you all, for an immense effort.
Brent Evans would like to thank the artists who really stepped up for this amazing one-of-a-kind project.
BattleTech
veterans “Mazzoni, “SpOoKy, Victor and Marco
”
”
really brought their A-games, while newcomers Christopher, Margarita and Colby joined in and delivered some amazing work on tight deadlines. This book was a
beast from the beginning, but these artists held the line despite hardships and curveballs aplenty.
Special thanks also goes to Anthony Scroggins & Dale Eadeh for their 3D modeling assistance. The resulting product looks absolutely amazing, and is a stunning body
of work. Thank you for helping to establish a whole new era of visuals which bring
BattleTech
to life!
Dale Eadeh would like to thank his wife Natasha, who put an undue amount of time and sweat into this book.
Randall N. Bills would like to thanks the hundreds of amazing
BattleTech
artists and authors spanning nearly four decades. This book stands on the shoulders of
giants. To the tens of thousands of MechWarriors around the world...may the siren song of the cockpit always call your name. Thank you.
