Factual error: Nicolai Malthus' Thor takes 11 medium laser hits from the Somerset garrison forces and emerges completely unscathed. 11 hits would have severely damaged his mech.

Factual error: Clan warriors are shown referring to their opponents by their last and or full names (ie "Adam Steiner" or "Hawkins" referring to Miles Hawkins). No Clan warrior would do this as Clan warriors must earn a last name (known as a Bloodname). Referring to another person this way confers great honor on them and is reserved for fellow Blooded warriors.

Factual error: Several times we see Jade Falcon warriors piloting a Hunchback IIC into battle alongside Omnimechs. Frontline warriors pilot Omnimechs exclusively. Normal Clan mechs are relegated to second line troops and freebirths.

Factual error: The Jade Falcon insignia is wrong. It's a 3/4 profile of a jade green falcon carrying a katana in its talons, not a head-on view of a neon green falcon.
