JAW-66B JABBERWOCKY Engineermech p. 228

This mech appears to be overweight- it is a 50 ton mech but the listed equipment adds up to 55.5 tons

There's a typo in the Environmental Sealing entry. It should weigh 5t, not 5.5t as listed.

A friend of nine checked out the Jabberwocky and I think he found the real problem - the TRO shows that the track in the LL and RL weigh 5 tons each. Tracks do have to go in each leg, but altogether they weigh 10 percent of the mech , so 5 tons instead of 10. Since the extra track made this unit total up to 55 tons, the 5.5 ton environmental sealing results from 10 percent of 55 tons instead of the correct 50 tons.

That's also an error. The entry for the Tracks should read as follows:
Tracks           RL/LL       1/1       5

Helepolis HEP-2H

Second Printing corrected.

Pg 185 PDF

Shows the unit with Double Heat Sinks and RS also shows it. MUL has intro date of 2488

I suspect its a type on the MUL, as a 2588 intro date fits.

This would be considerably before Double Heat sinks or even prototype double heat sinks are around

PDF, 2nd Edition.

Page 132, Bear Cub

"Once a Star Commander in the Seventh Bear Guards, the Trueborn Cardine was badly wounded during the short war with the Draconis Combine."

Issue:7th Bear Guards died to a man on Tukayyid and were never reformed. 1st, 3rd, and 5th Bear Guards fought in the First Combine-Dominion War.

Correction:  There's two routes available.  Either Cardine was a member of the 7th who managed to survive the flames of Holth and then later fought in some unknown unit in the First Combine-Dominion War only to be wounded and stuck in the 54th PGC by 3075.  Would put him about 41 in 3075 so totally in the realm of possibility.

Or, Cardine didn't necessarily fight on Tukayyid but was in the 1st, 3rd, or 5th Bear Guards during the First Combine-Dominion War instead of the 7th.
"Assassinating" the Clan commander's goldfish is hardly the stuff of legend.

 it would be great if future Battle Armor queries could be brought to attention in the General Errata thread first.
