* The cover image, depicting [[Sharron Burgoz]] in rather revealing [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] attire, was "sanitized" prior to publication by adding the white parts to her panties; these were not present in the original image (which was used for the book's German edition cover).

====Spelling and Names====
As with other German products prior to 1997, spelling and names (especially places and units) as well as most abbreviations were regularly adjusted. For instance the 'Mech unit ''[[Archer]]'' was renamed to ''Schütze'', the planet [[Götterdämmerung (system)|Gotterdammerung]] was respelled to ''Götterdämmerung'', the ''[[DCMS]]'' (''Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery'') became ''VSDK'' (''Vereinigte Streitkräfte des Draconis Kombinats'') and so on.
