For centuries, the merchant-princes of the Lyran Commonwealth survived as much through economic might as by the cloak and dagger, steadily growing in strength until their influence could be felt across the Inner Sphere. Now emerging from the ruins of a short-lived alliance and a bloody civil war, a bold new identity has taken hold of the people united under the mighty fist of House Steiner. Kicking off a new series, Handbook: House Steiner? brings the essential history, politics and culture of one of the Inner Sphere's most powerful nations to life for a new generation of Classic Battletech? players. More than a mere sourcebook, Handbook: House Steiner provides rules for both Classic BattleTech and Classic BattleTech RPG? campaigns, including new personal equipment, creatures, life paths, and more -- all tailored for players and campaigns based on the Lyran state!

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent resource for BattleTech Universe fans...,
By Jolly Father (Croatia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Classic Battletech Handbook: House Steiner (FPR35001) (Paperback)
This is an excellent resource for both Classic BattleTech Roleplaying Game and Classic BattleTech combat game. If you like the BT Universe this Handbook makes it even better. For example, in the history section there are maps showing the size of Lyran Commonwealth throught centuries. After every major section (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. Succession War) there is a detailed map of before and after the event... As always in BT handbooks there is a political system description, legal, military, but also a detailed economic system (average income per province, almost every major industry, etc). But one of the great surprises is the color section. Great pics of various individuals, locations, symbols and money(!). In the end, there are some new rules for CBT:RPG and CBT (extra paths, new environments, new creatures, a bit of new equipment). All in all, a great resource for players interested in gaining a greater understanding of the Lyran Commonwealth/Alliance and it's role in BattleTech Universe.
