− | : It's been quite a while since an update, huh?<br /><br />
| + | {{projects}} |
− | : I started Sarna.net back in 1994 -- I had just bought BattleTech 3rd Edition and was getting into computers at the same time. Basic HTML and a few links later, the site was born. Eventually, I began searching far and wide for every BattleTech file and tidbit I could get my hands on, and compiled it into the site. I've put a lot of time and energy into this project, and it is all for love of the game.<br /><br />
| + | </div> |
− | : Sadly, these days, I don't play BattleTech much any more -- I haven't played the board game in a couple years. I've played most of the video games, a bit of [http://www.neveron.com Neveron], but BattleTech is still in my heart. I sold most of the non-rule books a while ago, something that I now regret, but you never know at the time. I hope others are out there still playing. It's great to see sites like [http://www.classicbattletech.com Classic BattleTech] still going strong, and several projects still being developed.<br /><br />

− | : As far as the site goes, I spent a little time and fixed most of the broken links. They should point to their proper file archive locations now. I had spent last summer reorganizing the entire archive, and there's a wealth of great information in there. I'll try to add a search engine for it at some point. The submissions section was taken out, and some of the Background information has a bit of work to do before I put it back up. There won't be much more active work on the site, now that I have everything in a decent state. I will gladly take any new file submissions for the archive (email me). The site doesn't make any money, but thanks to [http://www.neveron.com Neveron] sponsoring ads, some of the hosting costs are paid for. Thanks, guys.<br /><br />
