A friend and I are working on a project some questions/discrepancies came up.
Sorry for any formatting issues currently limited to mobile.

Star League Field Manual, no printing #.

Page 23, 2660, the "30th Heavy Assault Regiment" won. This is not an independent regiment in the book, should it be, or is this just some regiment within some division? The number doesn't really match. Maybe it should be the 305th Royal (1st Army, XXI Corps) or 309th HAR (19th Army, XLVI Corps) instead?
Page 48, 19th Royal Light Horse Regiment is referred to as the 90th in HB:SL (p151), since there already is a 19th (FM:SL p108), this one must be in error. Recommend changing name to 90th.
Page 51, 75th BMD Map states Cussar (p252), but fluff states Barlow's Folly - These are the same system, its name was chagned to Barlow's Folly after 2765, so recommend change fluff to Cussar.
Page 126, 75th Light Horse regiment is actually in XXVI Corps (HB:SL p143) - Recommend just adding a note that this units is attached to another corps (they are listed in the other corps as well) but it is still part of the RCT.
Page 126, 138th Dragoon regiment is actually in XXVI Corps (HB:SL p143) - Recommend just adding a note that this units is attached to another corps (they are listed in the other corps as well) but it is still part of the RCT.
Page 176, In HB:SL (p147) there was a 210th MID listed but its a duplicate so recommend renaming to 211th MID (it is on Halstead Station on map in FM:SL p256). This unit was a duplicate in the original HB:SL as well. - Recommendation is adding a note on this page that the unit is part of the corps and not described.
Page 252, 132nd JID (on Brockton) fluff and HB:SL supports royal, so it should be renamed to 132nd RJID.
Page 253, 183rd MID should be the 183rd RMID.
Page 254, 14th ID (on Dalton) should be renamed to 14th JID (fluff supports JID)
Page 255, 199th MID - has no line connecting it to its source world, fluff states Kaznejoy - Recommend fixing the line on the map
Page 255, 37th MID - has no line connecting it to its source world, fluff states Vindemiatrix - Recommend fixing the line on the map
These units are divisions that were part of corps in the HB:SL book, but were not listed in the FM:SLDF book. I recommend adding a small note after each of those corps introductions stating that it has the 48 additional divisions, but they did not justify being described:

Furthermore, these are units listed in the book that were not on any of the maps, but based on entries in the fluff, should be on the map on the existing systems:
Page 41, 282nd MID (Denebola in TH)
Page 59, 26th RBMD (Pitkin in FS)
Page 59, 159th RMID (Hazelhurst in FS)
Page 59, 219th MID (Brookeland in FS)
Page 59, 225th MID (Altoona in LC)
Page 59, 235th MID (Stratford in FS)
Page 61, 59th ID (Barlow's End in FS)
Page 63, 261st MID (Nagel in FS)
Page 63, 268th MID (Mayetta in FS)
Page 131, 14th JID (Oriente in FWL)
These units have a location listed in the fluff, that does not match the maps nor the corps deployment areas:
Page 49, 39th RBMD Map states Raman (p252), but fluff states Denebola - Fluff should be updated to Raman
Page 81, 175th RMID Map states Shensi (p253), but fluff states New Aragon - Fluff should be updated to Shensi
Page 113, 70th MID Map states Regulus (p252), but fluff states Repulse - Fluff should be updated to Regulus
Page 127, 149th BMD Map states Scheuerheck (p254), but fluff states Ohrensen - Fluff should be updated to Scheuerheck
Page 127, 125th BMD Map states Vakarel (p254), but fluff states Lexington - Fluff should be updated to Vakarel
Page 141, 129th MID Map states Zebeneschamali (p255), but fluff states New Aragon - Fluff should be updated to Zebeneschamali
Page 191, 67th MID Map states Christiania (p256), but fluff states Brownsville - Fluff should be updated to Christiania
Page 191, 34th RBMD Map states Polcenigo (p256), but fluff states Epsilon Indi - Fluff should be updated to Polcenigo
Page 197, 30th JID Map states Cheriton (p256), but fluff states Muphrid - Fluff should be updated to Cheriton
Page 205, 260th BMD Map states Dunianshire (p257), but fluff states Raldamax - Fluff should be updated to Dunianshire
Page 205, 60th ID Map states Lockton (p257), but fluff states Donegal - Fluff should be updated to Lockton
Page 205, 265th MID Map states New Abilene (p257), but fluff states Belluevue - Fluff should be updated to New Abilene
Page 215, 226th RMID Map states Devil's Breath (p259), but fluff states Yorii - Fluff should be updated to Devil's Breath
These units have different locations mentioned in the fluff vs the maps. Based on the previous block, I'd assume the map is correct, but either system works in every case:
Page 43, 99th BMD, map states Ronel (p251), but fluff states Dieron - Either of these could be right
Page 71, 208th JID Map states New Avalon (p252), but fluff states Remagen - Either of these could be right
Page 117, 352th BMD Map states Ibarra (p254), but fluff states Gibson - Either of these could be right
Page 213, 110th MID Map states Crestoblus (p259), but fluff states Ramora - Either of these could be right
Page 225, 95th RJID Map states Katinka (p258), but fluff states New Vandenberg - Either of these could be right
Other people noted these in the errata already, I just placed them here for confirmation:
Page 23, 2696/2700 were won by the 29th Royal CAAN, but on page 48 it isn't listed as a royal unit. It should probably become royal.
Page 41 the 282nd MID and page 49 the 39th RBMD both have the same nickname 'The Denebola Division', keep it for the 39th RBMD and change 282nd MID to "The Battle of Scar River Division"
Page 89 the 19th MID and Page 119 the 32nd ID both have the same nickname 'Tunnel Rats', should stay for 190th MID, change 32nd ID
Page 175, the 94th RMID nickname is 'Semper Kill', but in the SLHB it is called 'The Bavarian Division'. Recommend changing to 'The Bavarian Division' as its a named unit.
Page 195, 1216th MID should be called 126th like the SLSB (Title and 2 mentions in fluff, and page 247). Is is also on the map as the 126th MID (Kagoshima).
Historical, Liberation of Terra Volume 1 (I assume Star/Battle/Strike are "line" squadrons), sometimes shows different fleet counts, even though its set only 1 year later:
1st Fleet: FM:SLDF (p44) lists 1st Star, 12th Interdiction, 16th Escort, 13th Battle, and 14th Battle, and 17th Pursuit squadrons. Hist:LOT1 (p46) lists it as 3 Line, 1 Interdiction, 2 Escort, and 1 Pursuit Squadrons. Recommend adding 15th Escort Squadron.
