Welcome to the Research Desk. If you have questions about how to accomplish something on BattleTechWiki or have a problem that needs to be solved by an administrator, please consider posting to the Admin's Page. If you have a research question, such as:
- "What was the name of that one non-Marik that became Captain-General in the war against the Sarna Supremacy?"
- "Who owns the BattleTech intellectual property?"
- "What year and where did the Longbow 'Mech first get made?"
...this is the place for you. While the answer may not be quick, our researchers should be able to provide you with the information you need or ideally, a link straight to the relevant article here on the site.

I'm doing a Mechwarrior campaign set in the Outworlds Wastes
I'm doing a Mechwarrior campaign set in the Outworlds Wastes. Currently the players are on the planet Tanz, which I had chosen because it was left as a blank slate (so far). But other than Wynn's Roost and a bit on the Traders Domain, is there any more information on the Outworlds Wastes? Raulpascal (talk) 08:59, 15 February 2021 (EST)
Information on Galaxy Commander Laurie Tseng
I am researching information on Galaxy Commander Laurie Tseng, Loremaster of Clan Ghost Bear. This character is mentioned many times but the only information i can find is name, rank, position, and command. If anyone has any ideas of what books i should be looking at researching this character let me know. Straw Boss (talk) 17:43, 18 May 2018 (EDT)

- From @GreekFire, on the Discord: "It was known as the Star League Intelligence Command, and was led by a General. Who specifically was in charge depends entirely on the year; as of 2764, this would have been Framboise Apfelbucher. Relevant information is on p.18 of FM:SLDF, with most of the same info found in the old Star League sourcebook as well There was also the Hegemony Central Intelligence Bureau (HCIB), the Hegemony's specific intelligence organization, but less is known about their general structure."

When or what was the first mention of the Word of Blake released in any publication? — The preceding unsigned comment was posted by 74.129.9.146 (talk • contribs) 19:23, 13 September 2021 .
