Within this volume is a detailed accounting of the minor powers that populate the fringes of the Inner Sphere and Periphery. Brigade and regimental summaries, industrial listings, strategy and operational thinking are all detailed.

The Kapteyn Universe is a Fan Fiction alternate setting for the BattleTech Universe, crafted by many hands across 13 years.
