UNCHARTED TERRITORY
Shrapnel: The Official BattleTech Magazine is your map and compass for discovering heavy-hitting tales of BattleMech combat on the battlefields of the Hinterlands!
Former Jade Falcon cadets who found a new home within the Kell Hounds are pushed to the breaking point of loyalty when ordered to hunt down Falcon holdouts. Plagued by raids and unrest, the Malthus syndicate seeks to end the rise of a charismatic and elusive Jade Falcon leader known only as the Talon. And a planetary noble desperate for protection will stop at nothing to keep the planet’s mercenary force on a permanent contract, even if that means they can never return home…
In this issue, you’ll also travel beyond the Hinterlands region to help a Draconis Combine tea master undertake a treasure hunt for the fabled lost treasure of House Kurita. You’ll see rival mercenary units forced into close proximity on Small World erupt into a bitter feud with only one logical outcome: a prank war. And you’ll wander into a merciless blizzard in the Magistracy of Canopus, hoping to hunt down a pirate before the hunter becomes the hunted.
The Hinterlands region of the Inner Sphere is packed full of surprises: shifting loyalties, shady characters, selfless heroes, and more. Get lost in the uncharted chaos of this region with articles forecasting the future of Duke Vedet Brewer’s Vesper Marches and the independent planet of Blue Hole, a playable campaign for Barcelona, planet digests, technical readouts, and more—all by veteran BattleTech authors and some new trailblazers:
Russell Zimmerman, Giles Gammage, James Bixby, Sam Barrett, Alex Fairbanks, James Hauser, Ken’ Horner, Bryan Young, Alex Fauth, James Kirtley, Matt Larson, Mike Miller, Lorcan Nagle, Luke Robertson, Eric Salzman, Zac Schwartz, Tom Stanley, Stephen Toropov

ENTER THE ARENA!
Shrapnel: The Official BattleTech Magazine is your spotlight for tales of brutal, one-on-one BattleMech action in the no-holds-barred gladiatorial arenas of the 31st century and beyond!
A patsy expected to take a fall must utilize every asset at his disposal to avoid becoming another Solaris tragedy when backroom intrigue spills into the arena. A law enforcement agent with ties to organized crime must fight an unsanctioned duel to help stage a daring rescue. Coming out of retirement, a washed-up has-been with an abysmal win-loss record seeks one last bout for a final chance at glory.
In this issue, you’ll begin your journey on the Game World of Solaris VII, where two gladiators must take dangerous risks for a shot at revenge in the name of the Federated Suns. You’ll witness a debt-collection attempt gone wrong, where survival is more valuable than seizing a ’Mech as collateral. And you’ll blast your way into the first installment of the serial novel Violent Inception, by Russell Zimmerman.
Whether you begin in unranked matches in the Reaches, or you’ve worked your way up to the famed Class Six arenas, Solaris is where legends are made and fortunes come to an abrupt end. And the best way to climb the ladder to become the Grand Champion is to arm yourself with advice on survival and ’Mech-scale melee weapons, Stable Digests, technical readouts, and more—all by defending-champion BattleTech authors and some new challengers in the arena:
Russell Zimmerman, Michael J. Ciaravella, Tom Leveen, Mark Hill, Chris Hussey, Devin Ramsey, Craig A. Reed, Jr., Robin Briseño, Matthew Cross, Daniel Isberner, Matt Larson, Wunji Lau, Lorcan Nagle, Eric Salzman, Zac Schwartz, Stephen Toropov

BRACE FOR IMPACT!
Shrapnel: The Official BattleTech Magazine is your ultimate target for tales of hard-hitting, explosive BattleMech action across the battlefields of the 31st century and beyond!
Trapped on a forgotten planet, a lone MechWarrior fighting to survive must stay one step ahead of the relentless barbarians hunting her down. Amid a naval battle for the ages, a damage-control technician will do his part to put an end to the greatest evil in human-habited space. And during the Wars of Reaving, a Clan technician given the opportunity of a lifetime must guard her secret, even if it leads to her grave…
In this issue, you’ll travel to the edge of the Periphery, where a dying, sun-baked world breathes its last gasp; you’ll follow a daring criminal cult in search of dangerous victims in the Capellan Confederation; and you’ll have to outsmart or outfight other pirates to keep them from stealing the perfect score out from beneath you… Plus, brace yourself for the exciting conclusion of the serial novel Lone Wolf and Fox, by Bryan Young.
No matter where you go in the Inner Sphere, conflict will inevitably find you, and the surefire way to defend yourself against it is with articles on arms dealers to either buy from or hunt down, spacefaring threats both real and imagined, and the best methods for transporting your weapons of war. Then go deeper into the trenches with unit and planet digests, technical readouts, a cautionary tale of ten playable pilots, and more—all by BattleTech authors both new and old:
Bryan Young, Craig A. Reed, Jr., Steve P. Vincent, Devin Ramsey, Benjamin Joseph, David Razi, Russell Zimmerman, Jennifer Bixby, Alex Fauth, Ken’ Horner, Wunji Lau, Jamie Kaiju Marriage, Mike Miller, Lance Scarinci, Zac Schwartz, Tom Stanley, Jaymie Wagner, Chris Wheeler

A captured wet-navy vessel patrolling a critical river stands alone against the Draconis Combine’s oppressive occupation of Verthandi.
