Regarding the two pages you cite, the souvenir's text comes directly from in-game text whereas the badge article's "How to Get" text does not (only the "Description" comes straight from the game), so I would consider the souvenir much more authoritative. -- [[User:Sekoia|Sekoia]] 21:13, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Name?

What is the name of this task force? In Burkholder's Bane Badge it's shown as "The MegaMech Cometh." On this page, the souvenir is "The Mech Man Cometh." (There's also an apocryphal CCG card: COHCCG/The Mech Man Cometh). So what is the name? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Felderburg (talkcontribs)

Pretty sure it was "The Mech Man Cometh". I suspect MegaMech was the original designation but then got changed (except perhaps on internals). If you look through the task force text, nothing else in it references "MegaMech". Regarding the two pages you cite, the souvenir's text comes directly from in-game text whereas the badge article's "How to Get" text does not (only the "Description" comes straight from the game), so I would consider the souvenir much more authoritative. -- Sekoia 21:13, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
