Well, thank you too then. I'm kinda relieved to see it finally being "finished". Took long enough ^^

Good day, everyone.

I would like to share with you the REVISED and this time definitely *final* edition of my nearly three year old Fan-TRO 3150 Lyran Commonwealth Supplemental, which you can download with at mediafire with the link below.

What I changed for the Revised Edition:
-'hopefully' fixed all errors and glitches in the fluff texts, stats and previous Record Sheets
-Record Sheets are back
-included a new *hidden* unit design with yet another artwork by the awesome Matt Plog
-changed a few unit stats
-improved fluff coherence inregard to the 3145/3150 change
-reworked the layout a bit
-new TRO cover

WARNING: This TRO is still very 'Lyran' and also contains almost exclusively what most people would describe as 'min-maxed designs', except for the BV I guess. If you thoroughly despise either of the two or maybe even both, no matter the corresponding fluff, chances are you will not be very happy with the TRO. In that case, I'm truly sorry, but it's just the way I design BT stuff.
Also, I did my best to get rid of any language-related errors, but I cannot be 100% certain as, sadly, I'm still no native speaker , so please forgive any language-related oddities you may still come across.

Anyways, I sincerely hope people can enjoy the TRO nonetheless, even after all this time. Happy reading

AWESOME!

Great cover, like the Archon space station image.  People keep forgetting there needs to be orbital infrastructure, too.

I enjoyed the fluff and artwork throughout and a couple of the designs the Rakshasa II, Terror, Schanze Fortress Trailer (Awesome BTW), Cwn Annwn Battle Armour, the Bastion upgrade, the Reingold and Archon Gigaplex

Maybe one mistake though the Terror T12S has 2 ER Large Pulse Lasers for 6 Crit and 9 ton seems very light for the guns.  Actuator Enhancement System on the arm (I've no idea if it reduces the weight tbh if it does I'm wrong)  Probably my favourite looking design.

only two things are missing.  the first is Alpha Strike cards and the second is 3D Printer Files for the Rakshaska II

Alpha Strike Cards... yes, I had those in there before QuickStrike became Alpha Strike, but only because the number of designs back then was still limited and SSW allowed spit out the necessary stats with each design. Alpha Strike has some differences though from what I understand and the conversion looked kind of... complex to me. So since the number of designs had increased by a lot since then, I never bothered with the conversion. Would simply eat up too much time, I feared.

As for 3d prints... I have literally zero expertise in that field and would need to buy any prints from that Russian website as well... 

And yes, sorry... I only do minmaxed designs. The TRO is essentially an adaption from an old AU of mine (which started way before '45 though) where all factions have minmaxed designs. And even while being minmaxed, i think some fairly original designs came into being nonetheless. I felt it would be weird to intentionally tweak the designs for the worse.
I understand however that many if not even most people prefer (un)intentionally flawed designs. Again, I'm truly sorry in that case as those people will most likely get not too much out of this TRO, especially if they don't care for the LC. In that case however, I still hope that they can get at least something out of the artworks and writing (as a non-native, I still hope the writing is at least somewhat entertaining and not too off in terms of syntax etc... and yes, I intentionally focused on the more technical aspects of R&D in contrast to the more "action driven" narrative of the canon TRO3145/3150 TROs, I simply prefer it that way and it also allowed the TRO to be more compatible withe the canon timeline as I didn't need to make up too many  combat-related events)


As for the last variant of the Terror... not sure it's too light... don't forget, it doesn't have LFF anymore but reflective and also uses standard structure (not a big fan of composite... just too fragile).
