From the back cover[]
- ""When Khan Selim Nagasawa brought news of the Terran Hegemony to the Clan Grand Council, he never expected to create a new political movement within the Clans. Driven by Clans Cloud Cobra and Steel Viper, the Loyalist movement has disrupted the order of power within Clan space.
Holding the balance of power within the Grand Council, the Loyalists ensured that Operation REVIVAL would come to pass, however, it was their council that reshaped the invasion planning from a Crusader led rush to a more thoughtful and considered approach to restoring the Star League.
Field Report: Loyalist Clan's provides an overview of the six Loyalist Clans: Burrock, Cloud Cobra, Mongoose, Nova Cat, Sea Fox and Steel Viper. Also provided are historical and political summaries, details on each Clans society, economy and industry and deployment tables for each Touman.'" - —{{{2}}}
Author's Description of the AU[]
This is an alternate timeline story starting from 3022, which rewrites the lead up too, and outbreak of the 4th Succession War.
It is based firstly on the side bar on page 57 of the original House Marik Sourcebook, but quickly diverges into an alternate
reaction by ComStar and the Kapteyn powers. I had an epiphany that started with the question “What if…”. What if Marik, Kurita,
and Liao had struck first, before Davion and Steiner were ready, all manipulated by ComStar.
The 4th War is now a very different beast, and what comes after has completely changed the balance of power in the Inner Sphere.
The results of the invasions were gamed out and the story of the alternate war slowly written as we progressed the results of the war, using a highly detailed version of Succession Wars/Inner Sphere in Flames.
