WELCOME TO THE HEAVY GEAR ACRONYM LIST
This document was originally planned as a tool for the Heavy Gear Mailing list.
However, due to the astounding number of acronyms within the Heavy Gear
Universe, this edition is more of a tool for all Heavy Gear players and Game
Masters.
If I missed anything, got anything wrong, or put something in that shouldn't be
in there, please e-mail me at:
saskdemoteam@demoni.ca
Please include the Acronyms, the meaning, and if possible, the reference.
Care has been taken to keep 2 letter acronyms to a minimum. Only the 2 letter
acronyms listed in the Books were used.
