Got my copy on Friday. Very happy with it. The 3250 prologue was a great tease. I liked the characters and the later variants that included weapons like the HAG and he plasma gun.

Should get it next week.  FLGS didn't think to get any so I had to ask them for a special order.

My flgs has it.  I flipped through and was disappointed to see the project Phoenix mechs, so I'll probably only pick up the PDF.

Are the Star Adders and/or other Home Clans somewhat mentioned?
Compared to the TRO Updates, is the flufftext new?

Yes...Adder is mentioned 41 times, but some of that will be the Puma "Adder"

No...MAYBE some new pilots, but no actual fluff text from what I can tell aside from the introduction.

Digging through an old box I just found TRO:3050 Upgrade, 3 days after ordering TRO:Clan invasion *sigh*

Some of the 3060 mechs seem to have gotten new fluff.

picked this TRO up the other day. looks like a good book overall. I am a bit disapointed with the new art for classic mechs, the marauder just lacks the soul of the original art style.

saw a typo on the Raptor on page 94, it lists the engine weight as 8 tons, should be 3.5 for that XL engine.

Yeah, that's the MAD-5L from TRO Project Phoenix.
