BattleTech: Force Manual - Davion

Force Manual: Davion is the first entry in a new series of faction specific force building sourcebooks published by Catalyst Game Labs for use with both Alpha Strike and Total Warfare.

Focused on the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns, Force Manual: Davion provides players with detailed information on various house units that operated in the late Succession Wars era and Clan Invasion era, force building rules to create your own house unit, and a mini-Technical Readout with several iconic Federated Suns BattleMechs.

FREEDOM'S SWORD

Some soldiers fight for money, some serve for honor, still others for a sense of adventure. The warriors of the Federated Suns protect the freedoms their nation holds dear.

From the horror of Kentares to the glory of Tikonov, the soldiers of House Davion answer the call to serve their people. Force Manual: Davion details the histories and traditions of the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns. From the Field Marshal of the Davion Brigade of Guards to the newest recruit of the Capellan March Militia, they are the sword and shield that guards the borders of the Federated Suns from the tyranny without, and they wear their spurs with pride.

Force Manual: Davion details the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns, examining the combat commands of the Federated Suns and their histories, tactics, unit crests, paint schemes, and notable personnel. This sourcebook includes special rules for unique character abilities, faction-specific rules, force building options, and a mini-Technical Readout–everything you need to field your favorite Federated Suns unit on the tabletop, or create your own.

For use with Total Warfare and Alpha Strike.

• Force Manual: Davion was originally solicited in 2015 as Combat Manual: Davion, intended to be the third entry in the Combat Manual series. When that series was discontinued due to lackluster sales, the almost complete Davion sourcebook became vaporware until the increasing upswing of the BattleTech franchise with the 2019 Clan Invasion Crowdfunding Campaign resulted in CGL revisiting the title and reworking it to include information to support Total Warfare as well. Originally due for release in 2022, the sourcebook finally appeared for effective preorder as a add-on item for the 2023 Mercenaries Crowdfunding Campaign.
