Periphery Field Manual,
By neal riebel (Cleveland, OH USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mechwarriors Guide to the Clans (Paperback)
This field manual is much like the Comstar one. It tries to cover too many different nations, and as a consequence, feels lacking after you are finished reading it. On the other hand, it provides decent updates of every major periphery nation and excellent information on their armed forces. Also, the manual is written from the point of view of the Word of Blake overall, but incudes sections by the periphery powers themselves, creating an interesting set of viewpoints to compare in the book. As far as new 'mechs and equipment go, the manual has logical developements, but that still didn't hide my disappointment that nothing cooler was coming out of the periphery (I always like to root for the underdogs, especially the Outworlds Alliance). Overall, though, I think that this is a solid book, with regard to its information on periphery leaders and personages, and on periphery militaries (including pirates!). Also, for any Mechwarrior players, the manual excels here, providing over ten life paths with their own individual event tables. The only thing I noticed with that was that many of the next path options list a path called Tour of Duty: Periphery, but the manual (disappointingly) has no such path, so I don't know what to make of that. Like all the other FASA manuals that I've seen so far, this one is well written and layed out, but it falls below the excellence of the Lyran and FedSuns manuals, being more like the Comstar book.

Essential Clan Source Book,
By Strana Mechty (MARTOCK, Somerset United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mechwarriors Guide to the Clans (Paperback)
The descriptive accounts for gamers and battletech universe readers of Clan life, history and most interesting of all characteristics bring to life the Clan way.The background information is formidable.A few of the early clans that were absorbed or lost are missing but overall an excellent read to pick up time after time.
