BattleTech Record Sheets are a series of record sheets for mecha and military vehicles. BattleTech Record Sheets 3025 & 3026 has 224 pages containing more than 200 records compiled from BattleTech Technical Readout: 3025 and BattleTech Technical Readout: 3026, and BattleTech Record Sheets 3055 & 3058 has 256 pages with 250 sheets compiled from BattleTech Technical Readout: 3055 and BattleTech Technical Readout: 3058. All sheets are perforated along the spine and hole-punched to be torn out and used with five-ring binders. [1]

Reception

In the May 1996 edition of Arcane (Issue 6), Jim Swallow was ambivalent about the record sheets, pointing out that "The cover art is nice, but these are nothing to get excited about - they're books of record sheets. You can get exactly the same thing in a few minutes with the basic rules, a pencil and a copy of the relevant BattleTech Technical Readout." Swallow gave the sheets a below average rating of 4 out of 10. [1]

In the June 1996 edition of Dragon (Issue 230), Rick Swan thought that because the sheets covered so many different vehicles, "this may be the bext value in the history of the hobby!" [2]
