Full Version: Commando Quarterly

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 ?

I would guess not

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.

One of those issues has source info about Denver to support the Missions campaign, but thats about the extent of my CQ knowledge...
