I'm been reading it. Sorry I hadn't said anything yet. It's really has some really has interesting ideas in these books!
I just get so lonely without acknowledgement. :-[
may i suggest a chart at the back listing all the unit types (including variants) and which factions use what? sort of Syberian MUL?
In a way, that's what the "Notable Specs" are for at the bottom of each entry's stat blocks. In addition to identifying "named units," their configurations, skills, and fields of expertise, they are color coded by faction. But a dedicated list of who makes what? I'm gonna avoid that, I think. The IE guys making this report are just guessing, after all. And after a few hundred years of continuous fighting, repairs, rebuilds, and reprogrammings, things get muddy.
Plus, whoo! This project is WAY larger than I ever meant it to be! I think it'll clock in at about 300 pages, when I get it done--and that's without a ToC, an Index, or Record Sheets! (I think I overdid it!)
