Talk:Castle Brian

Specific information vs. general information

Castles Brian take on a wide variety of shapes and forms, being a concept more than a concrete form or shape of installation. This article has taken a lot of very specific information out of JHS:Terra, but I fear all that information does not apply to all Castles Brian whereas the article makes it appear so. The HQ of Snord's Irregulars on Clinton sits atop a Castle Brian, and the Helm Memory Core was also included within a Castle Brian facility, for example - there is nothing to indicate these facilities looked even remotely like the description given in the article. I therefore suggest cutting out the very specific information on CBs on Terra again as it may not be representative. Frabby 15:40, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

I agree. I don't think the detailed information belongs in this article. It should be about Castles Brian generally. --Scaletail 00:26, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Agree to, i think we leave a note on the page, this description falls also under Game Rules or Game Notes.--Doneve 00:33, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

To build on Doneve's suggestion, a note referring the reader to a description of a Terran example, with page number, would do as well.--Rev ^{(talk|contribs)} 00:38, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

A mistake I always made...

I always thought "Brian" was a misspelling of "brain" whenever I saw it in video games like Battletech or Mechwarrior 5, or on this wiki, such as on this page and on the page for Brian Caches. I had no idea it wasn't.

This is another one of those things that needs context to make sense, IMHO.

On another note, we're not sure how many of these things were built and where they were built, right? So, there could be some that are still active in other parts of the Inner Sphere and Periphery like in the Federated Commonwealth as of the current era of publication?
