We have a few mentions of Markham's Marauders and Darius Oliveira's "mercenary company" so they are canonized, just not with much detail.
As @Kereminde surmised, I was reffering to Mason's Marauders in this case ;)

Well we can make Beta the Patron Saint of AC/20 headshots....

What do you mean, 'wrong canonization'?

Still too soon man.....

It's all right, Saint Didier will live on, anywhere a Hunchback 4G waylays your awesome custom Royal Highlander . . . anywhere Lady Arano is lost in the duel with her cousin's King Crab . . . anywhere a tabletop player scoffs the Victor needs to roll 12 to hit . . .

He lives on.

I was shocked when it arrived on this past Friday - quality was very nice.

Overall I've been enjoying the read, and it was great to see TT stats on the APCs and Argo.

Like any good source book, I was left wanting to know more and many new enticing details appeared - including 7 more star systems that dont seem to match up to anything else..... now HBS needs to add them in :)

The one thing I wish they had given some details on were the Sleipnir and Vargr. Would have been nice to get a paragraph or two on their history and use.

hey, question for you, relaying for a friend that needs this info. what is the ISBN number on the POD book?
Hey, not Kriszhao, but I asked around and there does not seem to be an ISBN on the POD book (which appears to Drive Thru RPG exclusive).

This was all the person I knew has it found on it.

I have really enjoyed the print on demand book. It is on my night stand and I read a little bit most nights before falling asleep. The backstory is entertaining and I like each of the Rampant Company roaster bios. Because the Arano Restoration campaign was the precursor to what is happening in the book and I have completed the Campaign in HBS BattleTech, I feel like I am a part of what has happened in the Aurigan Reach . However, I am a little miffed that Mr. Oliveira gets all the credit for helping the Arano Restoration while I barely get a mention as a Mechwarrior who assisted Rafa in helping Princess Kamea escape during the coup. I guess I should just be happy with that Atlas that Kamea gifted me in a show of her appreciation. Oh, and that night, that glorious night! (Hey it is MY roleplay... don't judge lol.)

Hey, what you do to your Atlas is your business - I'm not going to judge;)

I really hope HBS continues the story into the 4th SW and moves the map up to St. Ives / Tiknov - I think the intrigue in the Coalition could help explain why MoC and TC were so quite during the 4th SW, while giving us new stories to pursue with the 4th SW.

I'm working on a mod that adds to the map the rest of the canon systems of the Taurian Concordat. What kind of information is there available on those systems?

Nada aside from the name - I may be able to save you a little time on some of the systems as well - on Nexus I have a mod called SUCKoS (Sarna Cartographic Society) which has some of the other local StarSystem defs in it. There is something larger in the works, if you are interested in giving a hand - PM me ;)

Edit - LOL, link for SUCKos is in my sig,,,, I feel dense :p

Where do you get a physical copy? I'm on the Catalyst store but all I see is the PDF option? Thanks in advance :).

Got my copy and finished reading through, glad we got more Lore for the planets and their rulers. I'm going to try and place my next mod Flashpoint in the Reach using some of the hooks from the sourcebook. Thinking sometime between the end of the campaign and the formation of Rampart Co's mission. The Restoration only having 3 Companies and nothing over 55t is going to make this hard to adapt to a 5 Skull FP...
