Hark children of the Clans,
To the wisdom of Kerensky and your forebears.
Know what has come before;
Remember it as you strive toward the future.
Wisdom is the power,
Unbroken by the future, stained by the past.
It is the way to heed;
Those who fail find their flame extinguished.

INTERSTELLAR TRAVEL
Humankind has always longed to explore the stars. In 2018, Professors Thomas Kearny and
Takayoshi Fuchida wrote a paper on the theory of warping space to travel over a dozen light years.
The professors were laughed out of academics. Almost one hundred years later, their obscure and
ridiculed paper led to the Deimos Project, the invention of the Kearny-Fuchida (K-F) drive, and the
first “jump” between the zenith and nadir points of the Sol System. This became the literal driving
force behind humankind’s ability to leave Terra and the Sol System to begin the colonization of the
Inner Sphere.
Germanium is the material that makes “jumping through space” possible. It is combined with
titanium, and then enclosed in a liquid helium jacket along with controls, initiators, tankage, and
associated equipment, to make up a K-F drive core. A K-F drive creates a limited distortion field
around itself that allows it to translocate up to thirty light years in one “jump” from a system to
another, or between two points within a system. The K-F drive is the heart of the JumpShip. The
JumpShip also possesses in-system maneuvering thrusters, recharging elements, and a small crew
to operate the vessel.
When a JumpShip moves from one star system to another, it expends all its stored power, and the
drive must recharge before its next jump. Almost all JumpShips require solar energy to recharge
their drives. This process varies by system, depending on the solar emissions of the local star and
the JumpShip’s distance from it, but recharging usually takes several days.
The Lithium-Fusion battery extends the capability of the K-F drive, allowing the JumpShip to make
two jumps in succession without stopping for a solar recharge. L-F batteries are quite expensive
and are typically found on WarShips and military JumpShips. After the second jump, the JumpShip
must undergo a standard recharge for both the K-F drive and the L-F battery. Thus, it will take such
INTERSTELLAR TRAVEL
a ship twice as long to recharge completely. L-F battery technology was another casualty of the
Succession Wars.
Traditionally, a JumpShip uses the zenith or nadir points within a star system as anchors to jump to
and from. These jump points are at the proximity limit of the star’s gravity well “above” and “below”
the system’s planetary ecliptic plane, but there exist other, non-standard points to enter and exit a
system. These “pirate points” are used for closer insertion into a system. Pirate points are near L1
Lagrange points, where gravity between bodies effectively cancels out. Such points are constantly
changing and challenging to calculate for JumpShip navigation, but using them can be beneficial to
those attempting to catch defenders off-guard.
Many JumpShip captains dislike jumping to uninhabited systems, given the fragility of their vessels.
There have been numerous incidents where a JumpShip became stranded in an uninhabited system
due to damage.
DropShips are the ferries between JumpShip and planet. They carry thousands of tons in personnel,
equipment, and cargo. Once a jump is complete, DropShips detach from the JumpShip and make
their way to the target planet. The distance from jump points to a planet determines DropShip transit
times. A JumpShip can carry multiple DropShips depending on its size and number of docking
collars. The smallest JumpShip carries no DropShips, while the largest can carry nine.
WarShips are to JumpShips as steel naval vessels were to wooden sailing ships. WarShips are
JumpShips armed with an array of naval-class weaponry and armored for space combat against
DropShips or other WarShips. WarShips can also carry DropShips and provide orbital fire support.
The Succession Wars destroyed much of the Inner Sphere’s JumpShip supply and the shipyards that
once manufactured them. Production continued at a handful of sites, both automated and human-
operated, that were a pale shadow of the Star League’s vast shipbuilding industry.

Charles Kincaid
The first BattleMech pilot was, unsurprisingly, extremely well connected to the war industry.
Charles Kincaid’s wealthy family was closely involved in the production of weapons for
the Terran Hegemony, and he’d dreamed of fighting for the Hegemony from boyhood. His
family had no tradition of military service; his antecedents preferred the boardroom to the
battlefield. But this did not dissuade him. He rose to the rank of captain in the Hegemony
Armed Forces on merit alone. He only turned to his family ties for a chance to become part
of the Mackie test program, where he distinguished himself with innovative suggestions.
Kincaid piloted the prototype Mackie at its unveiling in a clear sign of Skobel MechWorks’
confidence in a successful test.
Kincaid had the honor of commanding the first regiment of the new BattleMechs once they
entered into service. This made him the first person to command ’Mechs in combat. Again, he
achieved success. This was only the first of many victories his ’Mechs won against the foes of
the Terran Hegemony.
Charles Kincaid retired a general after a lengthy and glorious career. He lived out his final
years on his family’s large estates on Thorin. The Kincaids became a respected military
family. Many went on to fight for the Hegemony and the Star League. Kincaid changed his
family’s legacy from business executives to military commanders.

Hyperpulse Generators: Interstellar Communication

The first HPG was built on Terra in the twenty-seventh century. Like personal communicators that
connect a family, community, or society on a single planet, Hyperpulse Generators (HPGs) hold
empires together across the reaches of space. HPGs were an integral component of the Star League’s
expansion. Most inhabited planets in the Inner Sphere have an HPG of some class.
There are two classes of HPG facility: A and B. Ratings were based on the planet’s size, position,
population, and importance, and could be changed as the world’s priority changed. Messages were
transmitted in bundles, typically every six hours from Class A stations and twice a day from Class B
stations. Sending via priority could ensure the message was immediately sent, but at considerable
cost. Messages were relayed from station to station until it reached its destination. Depending on
the priority level and the distance from sender to receiver, a message could arrive to close systems
in minutes. Conversely, a message sent to the farthest reaches of inhabited space could take months
to arrive. The cost of sending a message varies based on its size and how many stations it must be
transmitted through to reach the receiver.

Department of Communication. Blake rose rapidly through the ranks. He survived the early
ravages of the Amaris Civil War and volunteered his services to Kerensky’s forces, developing
work-arounds so the SLDF and Great Houses could continue using the HPG network despite
Amaris’ control of the First Circuit stations.

Successor States nibbling away at the fringes of the Terran Hegemony, Blake convinced the
Great Houses to respect the neutrality of the Communications Ministry, which he renamed
ComStar. Blake gave up control of the Hegemony as a whole and instead staged a military
takeover of Terra in the name of ComStar.
Blake’s oversight of ComStar was cold and dispassionate. He limited the access of outsiders
to technology, and established ROM as a security agency to protect its secrets. ComStar
prospered, but Blake’s wounds from Dieron never fully healed. He suffered repeated health
issues, which were not helped by his workaholic tendencies. He fell ill at a First Circuit meeting
and passed away in 2819. Blake’s successor, Conrad Toyama, oversaw the transformation of
ComStar into a pseudo-religious sect, but records indicate that many of ComStar’s mystic
trappings originated with Blake himself.
Many later histories portrayed the “Word of Blake” as a Toyama invention, but contemporary
records support claims that Toyama was enacting Blake’s will. However, while Blake wanted to
reforge ComStar as a church to hold back a new dark age, he could not have foreseen the zeal
some ComStar fundamentalists would unleash in the late thirty-first century.

…I am a descendant of Shiro Kurita, who seized the right of rule and forged
the Draconis Combine. In my veins runs the blood of the Emperors of
Japan, whose Imperial House of Yamoto is the oldest continuous hereditary
monarchy of ancient Terra. What’s more, my House alone tested the SLDF
and showed the rot within the Star League.
By what right do we rule? By the right of a heritage which spans three
hundred centuries. By the right of might that conquers and expands the
glory of the realm. By the Dictum Honorium that elevates and enobles all of
the peoples under the Dragon.
Join that heritage. Join that legacy. Join that glory. And the Star League
shall shine brighter than ever, for millennia to come. This I swear.
…As of this day, the Coordinator of the Draconis Combine shall also be
addressed as First Lord of the Star League.
—Minoru Kurita, excerpts from personal address, 31 December, 2786
COMSTAR
COMSTAR
Even during the most hopeless days of the Succession Wars, one light still shone. The beacon of
ComStar ensured that no matter how brutal the wars grew, humankind would never lose contact
with itself. What came to be known as the Blessed Order by its adherents began as the Star League’s
Department of Communications. During the Succession Wars, ComStar grew into a mystical sect
whose members worshiped the very technology they operated and maintained. ComStar remained
officially neutral in interstellar affairs, with services offered equally to all. Only ComStar adepts could
operate the complex Hyperpulse Generators that allowed communication among the stars. No House
Lord dared challenge that monopoly, lest their realm fall under interdiction and go silent in the void.
Though maintaining a mask of neutrality, ComStar followed an agenda all its own. As servicing HPGs
morphed into a religion, a nefarious dogma crept into the prayers of ComStar’s acolytes. ComStar
began to see itself as the savior of humanity, and would fulfill that role even if it meant accelerating
humanity’s decline. With every communication flowing through ComStar’s machines, no secret was
safe. The Succession Wars may have ended far sooner, but for the manipulation and machinations of
those who wished the sole light to be their own.

The Kentares Massacre

There exists no greater example of the brutality
of the First Succession War than the Kentares
Massacre. Coordinator Minoru Kurita of the
Draconis Combine met his end by a sniper’s
bullet while surveying the world of Kentares,
which the Combine captured from the Federated
Suns. Kurita’s son Jinjiro ordered the planet’s
entire population exterminated in retaliation, to
“bathe accursed Kentares in blood.” The single
greatest war crime in human history proceeded
over the next five months as more than fifty
SECTION
million civilians died in the slaughter. At one
point, Coordinator Jinjiro forbade his troops
from using weapons other than their katanas.
Many DCMS soldiers died by seppuku to atone
for their dishonorable part in the massacre.
Footage of the genocide leaked throughout
the Inner Sphere thanks to the local ComStar
precentor, whose personnel were also murdered
by the DCMS.
The massacre became the turning point for

the Federated Suns in the war. The AFFS was
galvanized by their quest for justice, with many
echoing the cry to “Remember Kentares!” They
rallied to drive the Combine invaders back
behind their border.

Larger Formations
A regimental combat team (RCT), pioneered by House Davion, consists of one BattleMech regiment,
three regiments of combat vehicles, five infantry regiments, one artillery battalion and two
aerospace fighter wings.
During the Succession Wars and later, a brigade represents any and all forces—whether a single
regiment or multiple regiments—that fall under the same administrative chain of command and
share heritage and naming scheme, such as the Davion Brigade of Guards, House Kurita’s Sword of
Light or the Marik Militias.
The Star League Defense Force fielded even larger formations; a brigade was formed from three or
more regiments, usually of a similar composition. A division was made up of two or more brigades.
A corps was composed of five to ten divisions, and finally an army consisted of three to five corps.

PIRACY
After centuries of holodramas, mythology, and rumors, pirates are seldom portrayed realistically. At
their heart, pirates are simply thieves. What makes them unique (and for the romantics, interesting)
is that they ply their trade with heavy, military-grade hardware. This means they require a certain
degree of skill, education, and organization beyond that of a local pickpocket.
Pirate bands form in power vacuums, typically coalescing around the remains of a military unit cast
adrift from its parent. Vance Rezak was a betrayed DCMS sho-sa. Hendrik Grimm led a mutinous
LCAF regiment. In the wake of a failed military operation, there are always adrift MechWarriors,
pilots, and technicians with valuable skills looking for leadership.
Piracy typically takes two forms: attacking a JumpShip or raiding a planet. The mechanics of
interplanetary travel make it nearly impossible to capture a DropShip in transit; instead, it is far
easier to wait at a jump point and waylay JumpShips as they arrive. Given that merchant captains
would rather carry additional cargo than a defensive escort, this is a relatively safe operation for
pirates. Riskier but more profitable is raiding a planet. A flashy and violent raid can net more loot,
and more specific items of value, than picking off random JumpShips.
But few targets generate massive income. This forces pirates to take any resources they can capture,
including a town’s food supply or even its populace. A pirate leader must be ruthlessly pragmatic, as
must their crew. Life as a pirate is ruled by force, guile, or negotiation. The strong make and enforce
the rules, drawing many who are too unstable, violent, or broken for life in the Inner Sphere.
Larger pirate bands have greater capabilities, but also greater running costs. A typical pirate band may
consist of a single lance of ’Mechs and supporting assets. Pirates who grow beyond this find they need
the supporting infrastructure only real estate provides. These groups evolve into bandit kingdoms, such

THE MINNESOTA TRIBE

as the Circinus Federation, Rim Territories, or Tortuga Dominions. They often serve as bases of operation
where a pirate band can rest, refit, and dispose of their ill-gotten gains. If they can avoid destruction for One of the Inner Sphere’s most enduring unsolved mysteries, the Minnesota Tribe was a small
long enough, bandit kingdoms can evolve into legitimate states with a source of income beyond piracy. warband that appeared along the Draconis Combine’s Periphery border in October 2825 and raided
In fact, some consider the Marian Hegemony, and even the Magistracy of Canopus as bandit kingdoms. four Combine worlds for resources over the course of several months before fading back into the
Periphery and into legend. The group’s name comes from their insignia depicting the North America
region of Minnesota, a crest matching the SLDF’s 331st Royal BattleMech Division.
In the three centuries since their brief appearance, little primary evidence
and no further sightings of the Minnesota Tribe have come to light.
Historians have largely been left with the same few puzzle pieces to
endlessly reorganize, argue over, and bend to fit their own theories.
Like the mysterious disappearance of the ancient Roanoke
colony on Terra’s North American continent, it seems unlikely
a conclusive explanation of the Tribe’s origins, intentions,
PIRACY
and destinations will ever be uncovered–too much time

has passed with too little new data.
Since the arrival of the Clans, prevailing theories

about the group’s origins often center around
survivors from annihilated Clan Wolverine, as the
Tribe’s insignia matches that of the former SLDF
command of the father of the Not-Named Clan’s
Khan, and the timing of Minnesota Tribe’s
arrival fits. More extreme theories point to
Periphery raiders masquerading in SLDF
cast-offs, or even a ComStar hoax. Given
how wild some of the proposed answers
have been, a conclusive answer would
perhaps prove even less satisfying than the
continued mystery.

THE RISE OF NEO-FEUDALISM A SAMPLING OF MINOR HOUSES
One side effect of the wars was a weakening of central authority in the Successor States. Democracy
was a long-failed ideal that did not hold in the vast distances between stars. Communications were
maintained through ComStar. Projecting force across the realm presented a different problem.
The further one traveled from the House Lords’ seats of power, the more they found their control
slipping. A new system—or perhaps a very old one—was needed to maintain order
The concept of feudalism began under the Terran Hegemony and took hold throughout Inner Sphere.
House Lords bestowed loyal lieutenants with ancient titles like “duke” or “baron.” These minor
nobles were given free rein over a portion of the House Lord’s territory. Some ruled a single world.
The most powerful controlled vast stretches of space. Common people could gain hereditary titles
through service to the realm. The BattleMech already held the top tier on the battlefield, but their
increasing scarcity gave them almost mythical regard in some places, and MechWarriors became the
House Bey House Bradford House Brewer House Cherenkoff
most valued of all combat troops. BattleMech ownership guaranteed a family a landholding. Warriors
thus invested fought more loyally when their liege lord called. They rose to the top tier in all nations
as all societies stratified. They were the chivalric knights of their age.
The system was not without its difficulties. Some MechWarriors were more loyal to regional lords
Γ E Д E O H
than to a distant Successor Lord. Trouble could arise if that regional noble harbored ideas above their
station. Eventually, every Great House had almost as many powerful enemies within as without.

THE GAMES
Since the dawn of civilization, humans have used combat to settle grievances, build their strength,
and even to entertain one another. Untold years later, the first bet was placed, and thousands of
years later, humanity is still doing the same thing—this time, with gigantic, high-tech engines of war.
The biggest revenue makers in the thirty-second century are the ’Mech games of the sports
entertainment industry. The early days of the ’Mech pitfighting traces its history to the Star League.
Rival BattleMech manufacturers tested their products in front of prospective buyers. Enterprising
individuals began to broadcast the combat trials. Spectators placed bets on the outcomes, and the
sport was born.
Most games take place in arenas (or pits, depending on the world) where crowds can cheer for
events from no-contact ’Mech races over obstacle courses, to solo or team duels to the death in
varying environments. Bets can be placed on opposing forces in the arenas of every world that hosts
them. Most combatants are independent individuals trying to make a name for themselves.
Some fighters lack the necessary equipment to compete, and that’s where managers
come in. Managers have connections in the entertainment industry,
and are out to make their names by riding the coattails of
strong fighters. Most managers try to hedge their
bets by hiring a group of individuals
and building a stable.
Then they can
place fighters in all categories of the games.

Inversely, small collectives of fighters have
been known to form to protect combatants
from predatory management. Knowing
which managers to trust with your money
or your life is a tricky business.
’Mech combat games take place on a number of worlds, including Antallos, Galatea,
Astrokaszy, Noisiel, Hardcore, New Hessen, and Westerhand. Some are legitimate staples
of income and attraction for a planet; others operate in the dark voids of government or are
overlooked by government entities. But the gold standard in entertainment for centuries
has been Solaris VII, the Game World. Everyone in the Inner Sphere knows of the Game
World. Solaris ’Mech fights are legendary, and play on every trivid set and holo screen on
every world. People travel from all nations to witness the spectacle of the games. Many
save money their entire lives to make a single trip to the mecca of gaming and witness
these fights live. Even the wealthy are not immune to the charms of the sport. Some go so
far as to become benefactors or stable owners so they can associate with these icons of the
entertainment industry.
Some say the fights are fake, scripted just to make money. That competitors are injured or
die in the arena does little to dissuade the disbelievers. But almost everyone agrees on one
thing: that it is the greatest spectacle in entertainment.

72 73
LOSTECH
A new word crept into the common lexicon as the wars raged on. Lostech, or lost technology, referred to
Star League era technology that could no longer be manufactured, or even understood in some cases.
BattleMechs became less deadly as they devolved. The Successor States’ vast WarShip fleets
disappeared. Factory outputs slowed to a trickle. Entire industries ground to a halt. Equipment
broke down and stayed that way. No one knew how to fix it. Functional shipyards were reduced to
minimal operation. JumpShip production barely kept up with attrition losses due to age and wear.
Losing more to combat would ensure that humanity never traveled the stars again. A tacit agreement
between all Houses blossomed that protected JumpShips from destruction.
The decline affected every world differently. The most fortunate lost only their most high-tech
gadgets. Less habitable planets found themselves in dire straits. Air and water purifiers became
more valuable than gold or jewels. If replacement parts could not be found, the world often died.
Some worlds collapsed into complete anarchy. Many regressed to a scavenger economy. Nothing
could be had unless it was found by chance or taken from a foe. Lostech prospectors roamed the
stars on battered JumpShips. Desperate souls made a living by scouring centuries-old battlefields.
Hidden Star League depots were occasionally uncovered. Their contents could change life for the
better. A cache of old BattleMechs would make the finder rich.
It would also perpetuate the war.
Devolution of a BattleMech: the Thunderbolt

The Thunderbolt is one of the more ubiquitous heavy BattleMechs in existence, observed on
battlefields for over five centuries. The mainstay variant of the Thunderbolt TDR-5S was built on
a standard chassis, shielded by a staggering thirteen tons of armor, and bristling with an arsenal
consisting of a large laser, a trio of medium lasers, long- and short range missiles, and a pair of
machine guns. Lastly the Thunderbolt is serviced by fifteen complete heat pumps (“heat sinks”)
mounted within the engine and throughout the ’Mech to dissipate heat buildup.
With the advent of advanced Terran Hegemony—Star League—technology, the Thunderbolt saw
an upgrade in the mid-twenty-sixth century. Designated TDR-5Sb, it was built from the ground up,
with a lighter chassis of endo steel, allowing it to mount heavier weapons and equipment. The large
laser was replaced by an extended-range particle projection cannon, an Artemis fire control system
was added to the long-range missiles, the short-range missiles were replaced with a Streak missile
launcher (which would not fire without an absolute target lock), the machine guns were replaced by
far-deadlier small pule lasers, and finally a small laser was mounted above the cockpit. In addition
LOSTECH
the Thunderbolt ’s heat sinks were replaced by fourteen “double” heat sinks, allowing the -5Sb to run
SECTION
as cool as the -5S despite the higher heat buildup.
The Succession Wars (and ComStar’s Operation Holy Shroud) took a heavy toll on industry. By the
twenty-ninth century the Thunderbolt’s lighter endo steel frame could no longer be manufactured, and
the technology behind much of its other advanced equipment was lost. The TDL-5L was built on the older,
heavier, skeleton, and necessitated the replacement of the extended-range particle projection cannon with
an extended-range large laser, as well as the removal of the small laser and one double heat sink.
Within three short decades of the introduction of the -5L, -5LS debuted, which replaced the advanced
long- and short-range missile packs with their original, pre-Star League counterparts. Furthermore,
fifteen standard heat sinks once more took the place of double heat sinks.
The next century would see the production of extended-range and pulse laser come to an end, thus
leaving only the old Thunderbolt TDR-5S viable for manufacture, maintenance, and repair. Many
’Mechs, such as the Crusader and Phoenix Hawk, suffered a similar fate, while others—introduced at
the zentih of the Star League—such as the Marauder and Black Knight, were downgraded to remain
viable. And then there are those ’Mechs that simply vanished from both the field and from memory.

AT THE HELM
The waning years of the Third Succession War brought unexpected change. One of the biggest was
the arrival of Wolf’s Dragoons.
The House Lords were desperate for troops, and the arrival of five elite BattleMech regiments from
the periphery seemed too good to be true. The Dragoons fought for and against each House in turn.
They were perhaps the best mercenaries ever. Their appearance raised endless suspicion, but the
Dragoons guarded their origins closely. No Successor State ever penetrated Dragoon security.
Another, much smaller, mercenary unit had an even more profound effect on the Inner Sphere: the
Gray Death Legion, which discovered a priceless treasure on the world of Helm in 3028. It was an
intact Star League Library Core containing more knowledge than a single human could absorb in one
lifetime. Its secrets contained the technological knowledge humanity needed to reshape the destiny
of the Inner Sphere and pull it out of its dark age.
Not everyone wished for such an outcome. ComStar covertly tried to destroy the Helm Core.
Grayson Carlyle—leader of the Gray Death Legion—was forced to make a deal with an enemy to
survive, and disseminated copies of the Helm Core throughout the Inner Sphere. Even so, it took
decades of study before the Helm Core gave up all of its secrets.
The Helm Core accelerated a technological renaissance that had already begun with the recovery
of a library on Halstead Station fourteen years earlier. First Prince Hanse Davion used the contents
to establish the New Avalon Institute of Science. Great minds began to halt the backslide. In some
cases, they reversed it. They created the Inner Sphere’s first new BattleMech in a century with the
Hatchetman. With both the Halstead Station library and the Helm Core recovered, advances in both
military and civilian technology seeped back into everyday life.

Return to the Inner Sphere is impossible for us. Our heritage and our
convictions are different from those we left behind. The greed of the five
Great Houses and the Council Lords is a disease that can only be burned
away by the passing of decades, even centuries. And though the fighting
may seem to slow, or even cease, it will erupt again as long as there are
powerful men to covet one another's wealth. We shall live apart, conserving
all the good of the Star League and ridding ourselves of the bad, so that
when we return—and return we shall—our shining moral character will be
as much our shield as our BattleMechs and fighters.

Warrior Caste: A Clan’s touman (their military arm) is comprised of the warrior caste, which rules and
protects the Clan. They are usually the only caste allowed to vote in Clan councils. Subcastes exist
for MechWarriors, aerospace fighter pilots, and Elementals. Infantry, paramilitary police, Watch (Clan
intelligence organizations) officers, WarShip command staff, and vehicle crews are also considered
warriors. Freeborns who pass Trials of Position achieve warrior status as well.

Laborer Caste: The vast majority of the Clan population belongs to this caste. Laborers include

—Broadcast made by Victor Steiner-Davion, December 8, 3062, to the
people of the former Federated Commonwealtll
THE FEDERATED
The Federated Commonwealth was a great
experiment in unity after centuries of ceaseless
war. It began as a peace proposal by Archon
COMMONWEALTH
Katrina Steiner of the Lyran Commonwealth.
Only First Prince Hanse Davion of the
Federated Suns responded with an acceptable
counterproposal. The two nations shared
many beliefs and enemies. Talks grew beyond
a simple alliance into a full union of the
two realms. The military competence of the
Federated Suns complemented the economic
might of the Lyrans. Cooperation between
scientists hastened the recovery of data from
the Helm Memory Core. The FedCom seemed
poised to dominate the whole of the
Inner Sphere.
THE FEDERATED COMMONWEALTH
THE FEDERATED COMMONWEALTH

Integration on such a massive scale came with
its challenges. Old prejudices never died out.
Separatist movements threatened the unity.
The pressure of the Clan Invasion exacerbated
existing tensions. Strong leadership was needed
to ensure continuity of the realm after the deaths
of Hanse Davion and Melissa Steiner-Davion, but
their children did not provide that leadership.
The Commonwealth’s enemies did little more
than sit back and watch as simmering embers
erupted into civil war.
But the Federated Commonwealth proved that

the Successor States were capable of working
together, for a brief time at least. It was the
prototype for the Second Star League.
120 121
THE CIVIL WAR THE CIVIL WAR
OPERATION GUERRERO
Joshua Marik, son of Captain-General Thomas
Marik, was diagnosed with leukemia at a
young age. First Prince Hanse Davion arranged
treatments for Joshua at the New Avalon Institute
of Science in return for military equipment from
the Free Worlds League. When the young Marik
died on New Avalon during his treatments, Victor
Steiner-Davion, on advice of his counselors,
authorized the replacement of the dead boy with
a doppelganger to ensure continued delivery of
materiel to the Federated Commonwealth.
Thomas Marik’s discovery of his son’s death and

replacement prompted retaliation. In September
3057, the Free Worlds League Military launched
Operation Guerrero, a series of attacks against
the narrow territory linking the two halves of the
FedCom. The operation’s goal was to recover
worlds lost in the Fourth Succession War. At the
same time, Thomas Marik’s prospective son-in-
law, Sun-Tzu Liao, launched attacks on the Sarna
March, and Victor’s sister Katherine seized control
of the Lyran state. While Operation Guerrero
made limited gains, it sundered the Federated
Commonwealth and caused chaos in the former
OPERATION GUERRERO
Sarna March. This provided a fertile breeding
ground for discontent that the Word of Blake
later exploited. The Capellan Confederation’s
gains provided impetus to Sun-Tzu’s Xin Sheng
movement and the resurgence of House Liao after
the disastrous Fourth Succession War.
OTHER CONFLICTS
The rest of the Inner Sphere did not sit idly
by as the FedCom nations tore themselves to
shreds. The illusion of alliance kept the other
SECTION
Great Houses from outright preying upon their

ancient enemies. The Second Star League’s
accords were still in effect, and no lord wanted
to be the first to violate them. Gains were instead
made through subterfuge. Sun-Tzu Liao used
political maneuvering and treachery to seize the
long-disputed world of Tikonov for the Capellan
Confederation. The Word of Blake expanded its
influence from Terra into the disputed Chaos
March. Clan Jade Falcon enacted an incursion
of Lyran space. The Sandoval Offensive resulted
in brutal fighting along the Draconis Combine–
Federated Suns border. House Kurita became
embroiled in a war with Clan Ghost Bear,
leaving acting First Lord Theodore Kurita
unable to intervene.
122 123
Xin Sheng
Xin Sheng (“New Birth”) is a cultural movement instigated in 3060 by Chancellor Sun-Tzu Liao of
the Capellan Confederation to restore national pride in the people he ruled. The Confederation lost
significant territory in the Fourth Succession War and struggled during the Clan Invasion. Xin Sheng
unified the disparate cultures and heritages of the Confederation under the banner of Chinese Han
culture. This included reorganizing the Capellan Confederation Armed Forces (CCAF), renaming all
ranks with Chinese equivalents, and nationalizing mercenaries with long standing service to the
Confederation (most notably, McCarron’s Armored Cavalry). Efforts were made to retake worlds
lost during the Succession Wars, like the St. Ives Compact and the Tikonov region. The movement
brought a surge in productivity across the Confederation, spurring economic growth and helping to
stabilize the hemorrhaging Capellan economy. Xin Sheng brought the Capellan people together by
focusing not on the ethnicity of individuals or regions, but on the fact that they were all Capellans.
Sun-Tzu Liao
Sun-Tzu Liao was arguably the most dynamic House Lord of the late thirty-first century. The
Capellan Confederation he inherited from his paranoid, unstable mother was on the verge of
collapse. Sun-Tzu leveraged his innate political acumen and extraordinarily cunning mind to
rebuild his nation into a true power of the Inner Sphere. All of Sun-Tzu’s actions served his
ultimate goal of bettering the Capellan state and its citizens. He was as grand a strategist as
his namesake. His elegant machinations unfurled in ways that benefited him no matter the
outcome. Pride, prosperity, and a good deal of lost territory returned to the Confederation
through his policies.
Sun-Tzu’s distrust of outsiders led him to undervalue foreign alliances; his allies served a
purpose and were then discarded. Only the Magistracy of Canopus could forge a lasting
THE ST. IVES COMPACT

relationship with the Capellan Confederation through Sun-Tzu’s marriage to Naomi Centrella.
Sun-Tzu’s death in 3113 remains shrouded in mystery. Capellan citizens believe that Sun-Tzu
ascended to godhood. Rumors persist that he never actually died, and will return to lead the
Confederation to even greater glory.
SUN-TZU LIAO
The St. Ives Compact

Following the Fourth Succession War, the St. Ives
Commonality left the battered Capellan Confederation,
entering an unequal alliance with the nascent Federated
Commonwealth. The St. Ives Compact faced pressure
from a perpetual low-intensity brush war against the
spurned Capellans, and war reparations to the FedCom.
Under the ruling Allard-Liao family, the Compact

leveraged House Allard’s ties to Houses Steiner and
Davion, rebuilding industries and improving the
quality of life for its population. Never large, the St.
Ives Military Command was suited to the defense of
the Compact, aided by materiel and troops from the
Federated Commonwealth and top-tier mercenaries. The
Compact repaid this aid by sending their best forces to help
fight the Clans.
As the FedCom came to blows, Sun-Tzu Liao saw an opportunity to

strike his aunt’s weakened realm. After a tenacious three-year war, Candace Liao
negotiated her realm’s reintegration into the Capellan Confederation to end the fighting.
