The MechWarrior: Living Legends Wiki (MWLL Wiki) is a MechWarrior: Living Legends community project designed to be a repository of information related to the mod and bring knowledge to everyone. It is a source of both game descriptions and many useful hints & ideas.

History

The idea of wiki was proposed by MWLL Forum guest called Drutort on 21 February 2010. Forum itself was set up on 22nd February.

It has been asked for and we did heed the call: today, we give to you the MWLL Community Wiki at http://wiki.mechlivinglegends.net

When we say "we give to you", that is exactly what we mean: this Wiki will absolutely and only live by your participation, it is a "Community Wiki". Therefore, please ensure that when you create content on this wiki, it is correct and valid as you will be responsible for the quality of this Wiki as an informational resource, not just for new players of course.
