Page 18 : Flea FLE-14 Record sheet
Internal Structure Diagram
Has IS values listed, but no Structure boxes are present.
Solution : Place the Structure boxes onto the diagram.
( My IS diagram has no boxes on it - it's blank )
Hope I have put this issue in the required format.
Thanks Xotl for looking into this.

Experimental Technical Readout: Succession Wars Vol 1, Soarece SH MBT, pg 14

Error: engine weight entered 7,5 tons
Solution: change engine weight to 35,5 tons (see also master engine table in TM)

Error: design overweight by one ton
Solution: drop turret weight by one ton (weapons mounted 32 tons -> so 3,5 tons rounded up for turret)

Page 4, Super Wasp.

"Although the two Super Wasps and the Super Griffin were built strictly as demonstration units, all three ’Mechs received their baptism by fire on 13 May 3022, when House Kurita and the Wolf’s Dragoons raided Hoff."
Issue: Dragoons were still under Steiner contract in 3022, Battle of Hoff is well established as 3023
Correction: Change 3022 to 3023

Experimental Technical Readout: Succession Wars Vol 1, Soarece SH MBT, pg 14

Error: Text does not comport with Design Quirks. (Taken out of service after FWL Captured Shiro III which occurred after 3012; Design Quirk: Obsolete/2915)

Solution: Change the Obsolete Design Quirk to read 3015 or later. (Wolf's Dragoons were redeployed off of Shiro III in 3013, and the Soarece production line was shut down "a few years" after FWL captured it).

Obsolete date is correct. This is the year the unit ended production. The assumption that the 3012 seizure of Shiro III was the one in question is incorrect - House Liao: The Capellan Confederation notes that the system changed hands several times during the Age of War and Early Succession Wars. The text in question is in reference to one of those temporary conquests sometime in the late 29th and early 30th centuries (the author of the passage was consulted on this).
