Doubtful. The Handbooks are all in-universe publications set in 3067. At that point, the factory ship hulls were a top-secret project House Kurita was hiding from everyone.

besides, wasn't it slated to be a carrier by then, and only retrofitted into a factory ship during the Jihad.

REVIVAL....
 [drool]

I wonder if there is any strategy/purpose to releasing REVIVAL before Ilclan.  The description hints that it will flesh out that time period and events a little more.

How ironic it would be to put out the book detailing the Wolf's opposition to invasion followed by the book where the Wolf invades Terra.

Irony indeed.  I can't wait for that read, it will be interesting run players through a Clan campaign book like that!

I find the RS:VA book interesting, so its coming out in segments? The title suggests this covers Industrial Mechs and Exoskeletons.  I'd imagine the bigger support vehicles would be time consuming to do.   I'm happy see them coming out! 

Primitives IV cover is interesting.   I knew the Emperor had a primitive version from the Objectives' Primitive Factories suggested.   There is a earlier standard tech one in the Record Sheets 3058 Clans Unabridged, the -5A with AC/5s and Large Lasers.  I wonder if this primitive one will be a primitive version of 5A.

Hope the releases will will be coming in the next week or so!

Yeah, I meant all the tips and tactics you've thrown out on the boards over the years for using...non-standard...units on the battlefield.

Look, dude, when you are a real mechwarrior you don't need to get all dressed up in cooling suits and cool helmets to work on your mech. You just strip down to your 1980s panties and crop top vest and start wrenchin' it.

I was hoping for a long time that we'd get something like this. It's going to have some overlap with RS: Klondike but there should still be a lot of great stuff in it.

Also, if they do another book for Vehicle Annex ground vehicle record sheets I'm hoping we get a full sheet for the armed Brunel dumptrucks that were mentioned in Klondike.

Is this just mechs and exoskeletons? Or are there other units too?
