I'm somewhat surprised that the IlClan (and all the clans?) would move away from the omnimech concept but I guess its PR for the IS freeborn population.

They'll have OmniMech's I'll be shocked, and pretty annoyed, if that's something that ever disappears now

Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.

Maybe the IS Clans will only use standard mechs (maybe the new tech forces them to?) and the Home Clans will return with an all omni based force.

Me personally, I think they are just setting up a renewed Clan invasion scenario with the Homeworld Clans getting pissed at the Invaders who claim ilClan status. But hey that is me.

I have not purchased TRO: SW (either in PDF or DTF) and would love to know how useful you guys think it is.

Both Succession War Sourcebooks seem pretty good and comprehensive to me. Solid follow ons to the Year of the Star League products which while I have some problems with are a good homage to old school BattleTech.

I haven't bought it - other then the intro and 3 mechs it is all material from earlier TROs.  One of the new mechs (Flea) is in the preview on Drive-Thru and the intro was there on the original sample, but not the current one.  The Galahad was another one of the re-written mechs.

I've got it and think its handy (given the state of my older books), there are 3 new entries, the new intro, new artwork on several designs (some in the historical's and the the rest in the combat manuals?), going from memory I think some of the text in the other designs has been cleaned up as well.
