HI!

     First, I'd like to welcome all of you to this collection of mechs
that I am putting here at potemkin.cs.pdx.edu. I hope you will enjoy these
mechs as much as I have. Note that in all cases, these designs are free to
use and copy so long as the credit line at the end of the design remains
intact. If you make any modifications to the mech, please notify me so I
can try it out and see how it works.

     The letterhead has been retained for two reasons. The first is
because I am using the online mail system to compose these files. This is
saving me a lot of time and effort that would be spent if I had to convert
a file from WordPerfect to DOS so I could send it. The second reason is
the subject line, in which I will state the mech's name and whether it is
a field mech or a mech used for Solaris VII. In ALL cases, I use Inner
Sphere technology unless I specify otherwise. The reason why I specify the
Solaris mechs is because some of them take advantage of the coolant system
in Solaris, and the designs made for the enclosed spaces of the arena may
not work so well in the field. Some of them, however, have managed to be
pretty dangerous on the field.....
     Anyway, enough talk for now. I'll give you the mechs, and if our
Solaris VII group comes up with any neato rules, I'll pass them along too.

                    Ciao
