From the back cover[]

""Six years have passed since the Fourth Succession War, with a wary peace

beginning to tatter as grudges and perceived slights force nations once more towards war.

At the center of the Inner Sphere, the Terran Hegemony moves slowly from dream to reality, while the Great Houses seek to reestablish their own power bases within the new reality, joined by ever more minor powers snapping at their flanks.

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

Inner Sphere Supplement: 3032 provides an overview of the period from 3026 'to 3032, covering major events, players, and campaigns. Also provided are national summaries, an in depth review of the new Martial Olympiads and an Overview of the Terran Hegemony."

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
