Record Sheets: Klondike, PDF, Copyright 2010
Page 90, STU-K5b Stuka
Problem
Mounts PPCs, not ER PPCs. Klondike page 161 specifies ER PPCs. In addition, the heat sinks seem to be intended to deal with the heat from the ER PPCs. 60 dissipation will sink everything on the sheet itself and then some.
As a consequence of this problem, the BV is wrong. It was figured for the PPCs, not ER PPCs. To make this more complicated, the incorrect BV was also carried into the MUL BV 1.0 PDF and the MUL database.
Solution
Replace PPCs with ER PPCs and redo the BV, then replace it in the two MUL publications. I have my own math for that value available on request; it can be sent via email or PM as preferred if requested.
Errata Coordinator: No need for the BV calculations. I'll update the rules thread with BV etiquette though so this question doesn't arise again. Thanks!

Two items, both unfortunately both TRO and Original Book Related
ER Small Laser - For some reason in the book they made a point of stating that the weappn heat is 2. This is the same as the "standard" later IS version. Should the heat be 3 instead? Also, listed range values have Short 2, Medium 4, Long 6. This long range vaule is better that the IS equivalent. Is this correct?
Streak SRM-4 and Streak SRM-6 list ranges of 0/4/8/12, but the book does not indicate that the Klondike Streak SRM prototypes have longer ranges that a standard SRM. Is this range value correct?

Griffin 4N, pg. 36.
Problem: Two different Variants carrying the same designation.
There is also a GRF-4N mentioned in TRO 3085 (pg. 238) and it has a record sheet on pg. 62 RS: 3085 Project Phoenix.

Griffin 4N, pg. 36.
Problem: Two different Variants carrying the same designation.
There is also a GRF-4N mentioned in TRO 3085 (pg. 238) and it has a record sheet on pg. 62 RS: 3085 Project Phoenix.
Based on the fluff description on p159 of Klondike, the RS Klondike version should be the GRF-2N, not the 4N. That one fix repairs all the duplicate names.
There are 2 record sheets for the Von Luckner. One says Royal, the other Star League, yet both are completely identical in every way.
According to the fluff on page 159, there is an LB and an LRM version.
The First record sheet is incorrect, it should be the LB version of the Von Luckner. The 2nd record sheet is correct.
HER-1Sb Hermes, Page 34. 1 Ferro-Fibrous isn't allocated, should probably be in Left Torso.
HOP-4Cb Hoplite, Page 38, 1 point short on armor, CT needs 1 more, either CT or CTR (probably CTR to match the Hoplite C).
On to the IndustrialMechs:
ED-X2 armed variants, both Harvester Ants, both PowerMan/Buster armed variants. These all show cockpit as standard, but it should be primitive (no ejection). They should also have a note they have advanced fire control. This could have just been a limitation to whatever app printed them at the time, but it should be noted.
All 3 Powerman variants and all 3 Buster variants have commercial armor, yet there is no note to them being "BAR 5" on the sheet like on the earlier Harvester Ants.
EGL-R6b should have 3 more points of armor (14.5 tons * 16 * 1.12 = 259.84, rounded to 259... only 256 are currently allocated).

Thunderbolt TDR-5Sb, page 45:
Design is 0.5 ton over-weight.
Suggested solution:
Remove head-mounted small laser, and adjust BV.
-
Firefly variant preceding the FFL-3SLE Firefly is missing. Suggest designation of FFL-3A. Described as replacing the ECM Suite with TAG and a half-ton of armor. Adding a half-ton of armor is impossible as the armor is already max, so I suggest switching from Ferro-Fibrous to standard.

p. 21
Thorn THE-Nb, the Star League didn't have ER Medium Lasers and Historical Operation Klondike doesn't mention it as anything other than a medium laser.
Replace ER Medium Laser with standard Medium Laser.

RS Operation Klondike - PDF version, pg. pg. 54 AND Historical Turning Points: Operation Klondike - PDF version, pg 175
Annihilator ANH-1G
Total armor is 1 ton over weight.
Total armor points:296, standard armor
Armor weight: 18.5 tons
Based on the fluff text in HTPOK, "Clans Coyote and Star Adder both fielded a modified Annihilator after putting lessons learned during the Pentagon Campaign to practice. Identifying it as the ANH-1G, their technicians removed all of the existing weapons, as well as half a ton of armor, to instead mount an ER PPC and three Gauss rifles."
Note: I just found the missing ton in the form of 2 CASE locations, but find it odd these would be removed considering gauss rifle explosion.

RS Operation Klondike - PDF version, pg 85
The Corsair CSR-V12b is one ton underweight.
Suggestion - 1 ton more fuel, or add back in the 2 aft small lasers the V12 has.

According to the fluff on page 159, there is an LB and an LRM version.
The First record sheet is incorrect, it should be the LB version of the Von Luckner. The 2nd record sheet is correct.
Dev-level clarification: the opposite is true. The first record sheet (Royal variant) is correct. The second record sheet (Star League) should be the AC/20 variant.
