The nice bonus in FR: Periphery is the map of the Hansa and Castil;lian territories, but then I'm biased towards those sorts of things.

You know there is something wrong with the FWL, when Word's spell check changes Impavido to Impetigo and Zechetinu to Secretion.

The Taurians were HAMMERED. The MoC has nearly double the Taurian forces now. Heck, the Calderon Protectorate has over half as many forces as the TDF now. Even the Marians tie the Taurians for number of regiments remaining.

Also, apparently the Colonial Marshals in the Fronc Reaches are Judge Dredd. "BECAUSE I AM THE LAW!"

Oh, and Wolfgang Hansen is still hilarious.

Yes, I've seen maps of them before very similar to this but I believe this is the first time they've been fully exposed in an official document.

Not a lot of surprises the TDF is hurting badly but I expected that, they've really only lost a few units from 3067, they've just been on a decline for a long time and continue conflict doesn't help. The CP expansion of forces was revealed in StarCorps Dossiers, but seeing it all in definite print puts a whole lot into perspective.

To give folks an idea of numbers, as they stand at the end of 3079, total regiments:

Taurians - 5.2 (this would be slightly higher due to the Taurian unit organization) / 9 in 3067
MoC - 11.1 / 16 in 3067
Fronc Reaches - 1.15 / 2 battalions in 3067
Calderon Protectorate - 2.0 / 2 in 3067 (they actually have 5 regiment formations, but many of them are very understaffed)
Filtevelt - 1.85 / 0 in 3067
Marians - 4.6 cohorts / 6 cohorts in 3067

He kinda reminds me of one of the characters from Kellys Heros.

Interesting use of the Taurian flag too.

Regarding the map of the Hanseatic League. I am curious: How many planets does this realm contain? 20,25,30,40?

Dragon Cat on CBT


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.

I'll get all three when War of Reaving comes out. Kind of excited to see what happened to the Clans.

The Wars of Reaving sourcebook has been published in pdf-format!
The TOC is interesting(as it allegedly reveals which Clans survived).

It will be interesting to see the reactions on the official forums...

There is one specific member here who is going to be quite happy with the sentence I just read.
