'''''BattleTech Activity Book''''' is an activity book which can be downloaded for free. It was intended to help players & fans cope during the [[w:Coronavirus_disease_2019|COVID19 Pandemic of 2020]] which caused many to be confined to their homes.

Featured in the book are newly created images of [[Clan Invasion era]] and [[Succession Wars era]] BattleMechs which had not been included in previous releases of CGL products.

* Activity Games

==Canonicity==
This was released by Catalyst Game Labs, which would normally make it a Canonical product.  However, it is unclear to what extent it is intended to be [[Canon]], given the unique tone and presentation of the book.  One section invites the reader to assemble an "[[OmniMech]]" by cutting out pictures of parts taken from a variety of other OmniMechs, and offers as an example the "''[[Starhawk (OmniMech)|Starhawk]]''", which had not been referenced in any other publication until [[Shrapnel (magazine)/Issue 19|issue 19 of ''Shrapnel'']]. While not explicitly "noncanon" or "apocryphal", this book should not be relied on as a source.

==Notes==
*Images appearing in the book are all-new images of Clan OmniMechs and BattleMechs including an alternate rendition of the ''[[Phoenix Hawk]]'' which did not appear in any product prior to this book.
