New Catalyst TRO3058U

p. 140 BHKU-O
Corean Enterprises should be moved from the "Primary Factory" section of the header to the last entry of the Manufacturer section

p. 144 AV1-O
Remove extra line break for Machine Gun in Primary Weapons Configuraiton

[BlazingSky]

TRO 3058 U. Page 143. The Location, Crits and Tonnage for the PPC are all shifted to the left, shifting them all right will fix the problem.

Catalyst TRO 3058U

Page 157. Again, the location, crits and tonnage are shifted over to the left, so shift them to correspond to their proper place.

Catalyst TRO3058U reprint (pdf version):

Battle Armor
All Battle Armor seems to have switched their hand manipulators between left and right hands. This seems to have been caused by having the top line being 'Left Arm' in old TRO and switched to 'Right Arm' in reprint.
This has the effect of manipulators being moved from the 'empty' arm to the one with weapons and making the stats conflict with art where no such conflict existed before.

Affected Battle Armor:
Infiltrator Mk I, page 15
Cavalier, page 19
Gray Death Standard, page 23
Inner Sphere Standard, page 27
Longinus, page 29
Purifier, page 31
Raiden, page 33
Kanazuchi, page 39
Sylph, page 43
Elemental, page 45
Undine, page 49
Gnome, page 51

Catalyst TRO3058U reprint (pdf version):

BHKU-O Black Hawk-KU, page 140:

The text over the small picture in upper left corner reads "Medium Omnimechs". This is clearly wrong since the Black Hawk-KU at 60 tons is clearly a heavy omnimech.
So the text needs to be changed to "Heavy Omnimechs"

Catalyst TRO3058U reprint (pdf version):

Page 212 LNX-9Q Lynx:

Fluff, under Capabilities:
"A dedicated striker, the Lynx features a powerful all-
energy weapon load and ground speed capable of keep-
ng up with almost any BattleMech under 80 tons,..."

Keeping up with almost any BattleMech under 80 tons sounds very strange, since it implies that assault mechs are faster than others, also light mechs tends to be way faster than 5/8/5.

Suggestion: Change 'under 80 tons' to 'over 40 tons'.

Catalyst TRO3058U reprint (pdf version):

Page 120 and 121

The header at the top of the page: "RTX-1O"

Suggestion: "RXT1-O"

This would bring it into line with the MUL.  My corrected 3rd printing TRO3058 (not upgrade) has the number zero instead.  So not sure if it's supposed to be a letter O or a number 0.

TRO3058, Page 11, Achileus   
   Machine Gun should have 50 shots, not 10.

TRO3058, Page 23, Gray Death Standard   
   Small lasers should have 30 shots, not 10.
+ Flamer should have 10 shots, not 50, Machine Gun should have 50 shots, not 30 --> in short, they all got mixed up.

Catalyst TRO3058U PDF corrected second printing:

Undine Battle Armor, p48:

As indicated by the Heavy Weapons Ammunition table on Tech Manual p346, Multi-Purpose Missiles - also known as SRM/Ts and LRM/Ts - have an Ammo (per ton) multiplier of x1, which means they weigh the same as standard missiles, therefore the following fluff for the Undine (Upgrade) variant is incorrect:

"More recently, the Goliath Scorpions have begun fielding a heavily modified Undine suit, which replaces the UMU with jump jets, and deploys an LRM 3 with four reloads of regular ammunition, or two reloads of LRM/T ammunition."

Suggested change:

"More recently, the Goliath Scorpions have begun fielding a heavily modified Undine suit, which replaces the UMU with jump jets, and deploys an LRM 3 with four reloads."

That the Undine (Upgrade) is incapable of operating underwater and because there are no rules for LRM/Ts firing from land at underwater targets, meaning that there'd never be a circumstance that it'd need LRM/Ts makes the fluff pointless anyway.

TacOps Errata was issued for firing torpedoes from above water. It is possible it got lost in one of the board crashes. We'll look into that.

Dev-level errata:

p. 216 - Excalibur
Last paragraph of Capabilities, replace the first sentence "The Excalibur’s performance in operations during the Reunification War proved the ’Mech a valuable asset." with "The Excalibur’s performance during Operation SMOTHER proved the ’Mech a valuable asset."
