Debatable as an errata, but...

Quote

Even in the twenty-eighth century, service in the infantry remained the most common occupation in the SLDF. Most were equipped with some sort of organic transport capability: APCs for mechanized infantry, Infantry Fighting Vehicles (lighter armored but faster and more maneuverable than APCs) for motorized infantry or jump packs for jump infantry.

The term Infantry Fighting Vehicle in this context don't match the current definition, which is also used in the BTU.
I suggest to adapt the terms of TW, p. 23, something like
"Most were equipped with some sort of organic transport capability: (Intrinsic - optional) APCs or Infantry Fighting Vehicles for mechanized infantry, light unarmored vehicles for motorized infantry or jump packs for jump infantry."

That's not an error. As indicated in the text, Beatrice had a regent for the first few years of her reign until she came of age in 2709. The same style is used to indicate the regency during the first 11 years of Richard Cameron's reign (see p56).

Two other errors on the M5/M5C record sheet:

2. The listing for the Aft Barracuda bay is incorrect. The bay contains 2 Barracuda launchers (each one doing 2 points of Capital Scale damage) and thus should have a Capital Scale damage value of 4, not 2.

15 is wrong, was already wrong when stated in the original SL sourcebook because this will lead to more infantry divisions than the historical 50 that were deployed and adding another ID would throw the numbers for IDs participating in the Periphery uprising and/or the Terran Campaign more off than they already are(OK would help with the missing ID in the Exodus).
So confirming one number from the old SL sourcebook but at the same time making a lot other numbers wrong seems to be a doubtful way, sticking to 14 makes at least not more damage than there already is.

I suggest changing it to 14 infantry divisions.

Problem: the Killbourn system, which should be located within the region bordered by Yorii, New Earth and Rigil Kentarus, is missing from the map. It's present on other maps in Historical: Liberation of Terra Volumes 1 and 2 - it just seems to be this map that it's missing from. Kilbourn is also missing from a similar map dated 2750 on page 25 of Handbook: Major Periphery States, but is present on the map dated 2750 on page 37 of Era Report: 2750, so it appears to be something of an elusive system.

pg 105, 4th Paragraph

By late June, all of the armies involved in the Uprising were in place and briefed.

By the rules governing travel via Jumpship, this is impossible. Kerensky did not give the order to begin the move to staging area's until 29 May 2767.

Canopus to Alarion (staging point Epsilon) is by my estimation 25 jumps, by direct path finding, roughly 175 days of recharge alone.

New Vandenburg to Romulus (staging point Kappa) is 34 Jumps, if they cut thru the Hegemony, but they curve around the Hegemony so now 37 Jumps, roughly 270 days of recharge time alone.

Alpheratz to Romulus (staging point Kappa) is 29 Jumps direct, roughly 200 days of recharge alone. But according to the write up, they traveled thru the Fed Suns or hopped thru uncharted systems in the periphery, which would take even longer.

2nd Paragraph pg 105

The first arrivals from the Periphery had been those deployed in the Magistracy of Canopus, who made swift passage through the Free Worlds League...

Per published rules on Jumpship travel, this is impossible. The quickest I have been able to calculate a transit using LF batteries exclusively charging then charging the jump drive with jump sail while charging LF Batteries with the reactor is 119 days to reach their Alarion from Canopus IV.

pg 105

Task Force DeChavilier notes 15th Army and 20th Army assigned. During Periphery Uprising they were assigned to Outworlds Alliance. Task Force DeChavilier launched operations from Alarion. That is 36 jumps IF they pass through the Draconis Combine with 256 days of recharge time.

This is impossible using published rules on Jumpship travel. 15th Army is noted as a primary assault unit. The only way any of this is possible is if the actual invasion of the Rim Worlds Republic actually started in 2768 and not the published 2767.

pg 47
12th Fleet write up

….and the entire fleet arrived ten days later...

2767 Kerensky's HQ was at New Vandenburg, 12 Fleet was based in Outworlds Alliance...the only way this works is it needs to read....

….was pulled from frontline duties as soon as news of the Amaris Coup broke, ordered to New Vandenburg with the fleet arriving ten days AFTER Amaris' communique on 19 May.

New Vandenburg is 29 jumps from Alpheratz, roughly 206 days of recharge.

* VERSION: PDF edition (don't know which version)
* LOCATION: Page 28, "The Throne Room Massacre" (3rd paragraph)

* THE ERROR: "On 21 January, two days after his election as Director-General, Amaris had the Camerons brought to the Throne Room."

Information earlier on the same page states the Terran Senate confirmed him as the new Director-General on 30 January. Additionally, page 86 ("Mandates of the People") reinforces that the election was held on 28 January, confirming the results of the election on the 30th.

* THE CORRECTION:
1) If all three dates are firm (the massacre was on the 21st, the elections were on the 28th, and the confirmation was the 30th), then the simplest solution is to remove "two days after his election as Director-General."
2) If the date of the massacre is not firm and it is important that Stefan Amaris waited until he was confirmed before killing the Camerons, then change "21 January" to "1 February."
