* VERSION: PDF edition (don't know which version)
* LOCATION: Page 95: "Federated Suns Counteroffensives 2801–2818" (map)
* THE ERROR: Unlike the issues previously noted with the Capellan-FedSuns map on page 92, this map seems more accurate as of 2797 but has conflicts with no less than the following systems (grouped by the states that should be in control):
FWL: New Dallas, Oliver, Alula Australis, Vanra, Carbonis
Sirian Concordance/FWL: Sirius, Procyon, Graham IV, Pollux
CC: Ronel, and probably also Deneb Kaitos, Addicks, Ankaa, Hean, Tybalt, and New Florence.
On the FWL side, it appears that the 2797 map on p. 95 is using the same border as the 2786 map on p. 25, but showing the Capellans having annexed the former Hegemony systems. I fear this could cause a lot of confusion for folks, as not only are systems like New Dallas, Vanra, and Carbonis documented earlier in First Succession War as having been taken before 2797, but the Terran Hegemony Remnants should probably not even been shown anymore. Field Manual: Free Worlds League mentions the Sirian Concordance formed in 2793 and joined the FWL, so these 4 systems should show one or the other, and not the Hegemony.
The pocket of 8 systems on the Capellan/Combine border up to the horizontal gray line should probably all be listed as under CC control except for New Rhodes. The narrative for Ronel on p. 82, for example, says the fighting began in March 2800, and specifically mentions it being the first of many battles over the next 5 years. The map on p. 44 better documents the territorial changes, which are all described in narrative on p. 45.
* THE CORRECTION: Update state borders to reflect FWL gains against the CC and Hegemony, and to reflect CC control over former Hegemony systems on the border with the DC.
