The CMs don't list an availability in the Combat Commands if its only available to the combat command it is listed under. An Available To is listed if they are available to other commands (at some point, or just a wider than just one specific combat command). Kitaykyusho is incorrect, and should be Ryuken-Ni (only) and therefore not have an "available to" at all. Catmar Lee should be as is.

If that is the standard for templating, then it has been applied inconsistently.
For example, Chu-sa Emma Wu on page 57 is listed as having "Available to: Shin Legion", Tai-i Neg Olivaw on page 52 "Available to: An Ting Legions" and Kapten Ek Olander on page 71 is "Available to: Gunzberg Eagles". All of these are available only to the command they are listed under but it is specified anyway.

nckestrel · « **Reply #4 on:** 12 July 2016, 05:14:25 »

Emma Wi is an example of a wider availability. She is listed under the 1st Shin Legion. If there were no available to mentioned, then she would only be available to the 1st Shin Legion. But she does have an available to, and it says Shin Legions, so she can be used with the 1st or the 2nd.

Olivaw is listed under the 2nd An Ting. By default, that would mean only available to the 2nd An Ting. With an available to: An Ting Legions, he can be used with the 2nd or the 4th.

But, on Olander, he shouldn't have an available to. He's listed under Gunzburg Eagles, and so doesn't really need an available to Gunzburg Eagles.

Change General to General* for Assassin ASN-23 (p112 and p120).

p112, LATE SUCCESSION WARS: BATTLEMECHS faction list.

Lancelot LNC25-01 is listed.

Should probably be the Introtech LNC25-02 instead, which the Combine began producing after the Second Succession War (p264, TRO 3039).

If intentional, the 02 still needs listed.

nckestrel · « **Reply #8 on:** 13 July 2016, 10:07:43 »

LNC25-02 is on p111 for Kurita.
The LNC25-01 is only on the Kurita Special list (Comstar gifts).

First PDF release, pages 79, 94, 96, 98, 100 (possibly others as well).

BattleMech names and ranks given in Japanese are supposed to be italicized, but are not.

Suggested fix: Italicize words as appropriate.

P. 112 (.pdf)

Units at the top of the page (including QKD-5) have long range damage around 2000.

PDF pg 12, FOUNDING chapter. Second paragraph, first two sentences:

Quote from: CM: Kurita, pg 12

Shiro’s ambitions did not end with rule over a single planet,
however. A significant obstacle to his desires was the Ozama
Mercantile Association, which controlled trade over a vast
stretch of interstellar space.

Substitute "Ozama" with "Ozawa".

p. 28

Second Sword of Light description states that the command includes "twice as many aerospace fighters", but only lists two heavy aerospace fighter wings, same as all other Sword of Light Commands. The count of two wings is corroborated by other sources (FM:DC, for example).

Remove ", and includes twice as many Aerospace fighters".

The S/M/L and A/S columns have several entries that (presumably Excel) mistakenly formatted as dates before being imported over.
