I have a feeling you might be onto something there.

Figure there has to be something to explain the seemingly lack of absorption in the former FWL. After all, the FWL's proto-states had a few decades to expand before the Blackout and opted not to.

Just finished reading the Lyran section of FM3085 (yes i skipped to my favorate house 1st), fantastic read and good to see some old favourates of the LCAF back on the rolls, even if they are LCT's in many cases.

Yes I saw that in my first skim through, good to see the Lyran Commonwealth back in both name and awesomeness.

PS for any periphery guys.... canon map of the Chainlane Isles just one of the sweet things I noticed :)

Question for those that bought the FM3085 pdf: What are your perceptions of this book?
Especially the part regarding the Republic of the Sphere?
(In this product I am more interested in information on the Republic of the Sphere than anything else, even the Clans.)

I ask because I am debating to buy this product in pdf format(in addition to my usual habit of purchase in dead-tree format).

Thanks in advance.

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

Light Combat Teams. Smaller versions of the AFFS' traditional RCT built around a reinforced BattleMech battalion(and likewise reduced conventional forces).
They are first mentioned in Field Report: AFFS

Is it true that FM:3085 contains the first ever canon map of the Chainelaine Isles?

Jepp the Map with the Hell Horses Zone has the Isle Worlds on it.

My opinion great book so far, great summary and a good starting point for matches around the two campaigns from the RotS.
