Back in 2004, FanPro published an online magazine which was apparently distributed as free PDFs. At first the magazine only covered BattleTech, but Shadowrun was added later.

In the past I found links for what I believe are the first seven issues:
  • Battletech Only
    • Commando Quarterly #1 – Issue 67-01, Summer 3067
    • Commando Quarterly #2 – Issue 67-02, Autumn 3067
    • Commando Quarterly #3 – Issue 68-01, Spring 3068 (Vol.2, No.1)
    • Commando Quarterly #4 – Issue 68-02, Summer 3068 (Vol.2, No.2)
  • Battletech & Shadowrun
    • Commando Quarterly #5 – (Vol.3) Issue 1, October 2005
    • Commando Quarterly #6 – (Vol.3) Issue 2, January 2006
    • Commando Quarterly #7 – (Vol.3) Issue 3, April 2006

Were there any other issues ?

Where can they be found today ?

After some more searching, I found the links for the issues I have seen. (http://www.catalystdemos.com/Files/Files.asp?CID=1019)

Volume 3:
  1. Issue 1 (hires PDF)
  2. Issue 2 (hires PDF)
  3. Issue 3 (hires PDF)

But that still leaves unanswered; Were there any issues after these ?

Any idea how the Commando Quarterly fit with the Demo Teams ?

Did the demo teams create the stuff in the Quarterly, or was it created for them by freelancers ?

I got the impression from the site that the issues were only really promoted to the demo teams, why not market it to the larger fan base ?

Hell if I know. I'd never heard of it before this thread.
