'''''...and into the action!''''' ''"Listen up MAGGOTS, 'cause I'm only gonna say this once. It don't matter how big your 'Mech is. It don't matter how many guns you've got. It don't even matter that your uncle is the bleedin' Grand Duke of Planet X. If you ain't got the training, the experience, and the sheer guts of a real [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]], you're as good as dead before you even leave the hangar.'' ''So pay attention and don't talk back, 'cause the life you save could be mine." - [[Sergent Major]] Jerrard Clydesdale, to the [[NAIS Training Cadre]]'s new recruits, September 11, [[3057]]'' ''The ''MechWarrior Companion'' is an expansion rulebook for the [[MechWarrior, Second Edition]] roleplaying game.
