While every effort was made to be completely canon, there are a handful of BattleMech & vehicle designs and a preponderance of components with no canonical data regarding their manufacturer. Rather than leave these out, I chose to create a book which is complete in it’s contents and thoroughly usable as the original was intended, and incorporated them into Objective Raids: 3067. I took into account a myriad of data before deciding on the most sensible, if noncanonically verified place of manufacture, and no canonical information was disregarded.
