| Description: |
Nearly three hundred years ago, the Star League was torn apart when the lies and deceits of the petty House Lords launched the Inner Sphere into endless war. The Great Father Aleksandr Kerensky led our forefathers, the remnants of the righteous Star League army, away from that chaotic despotism. In turn, his son Nicholas forged us into the Clans: a society dedicated to becoming the greatest fighting force in all of history. We grew stronger with each generation, awaiting the day when we would return to the Inner Sphere to save it from itself.
Now is the time of the Return. Some among the Clans oppose the Crusaders' campaign of conquest, but we know that true enlightenment can only come to the misguided rabble of the Successor States through total subjugation. We will crush their honorless armies with our OmniMechs and plant the flag of the Clans on sacred Terra. Only then will the true Star League have returned to the Inner Sphere.
-- Lincoln Osis, ilKhan of the Clans
The first of two volumes on the Clans, Field Manual: Crusader Clans describes the seven most aggressive Clans: Blood Spirit, Fire Mandrill, Hell's Horses, Ice Hellion, Jade Falcon, Star Adder and Wolf. This sourcebook describes the tactics, uniforms and battle histories of each Clan, plus special rules that reflect the unique capabilities of each Galaxy, new weapons, equipment, exclusive Crusader BattleMechs and more. |

Since the formation of the Clans, the Hidden Hope doctrine has called for a return to the Inner Sphere. Spearheaded by the Crusaders, the Clan invasion was driven by more than just the hopes of the founders Kerensky. Political motivations, territorial gains, and (whether or not they will admit to it) financial gains all motivated Operation Renewal. This book details the individual clans who are proud to call themselves 'Crusaders', and details the important personas driving them. Also filled with new technologies created by the Crusaders, and the mechs utilizing them, this book contains data that appeals to every player. |

This Field Manual, and it's Warden Clan Companion are immensely valuable to anyone interested in the Clans. They go to great lengths to flesh out several of the Clans that had been mentioned only by name up till this point, creating some very creative and interesting entities. The diversity between the two books is so broad that almost anyone should be capable of finding one Clan that at least interests them.
The Field Manual format in general remains solid, providing an in depth overview of a faction's military, including special unit rules which are great fun to experiment with. They're a bit lacking in social, historical and political background compared to, say, the House sourcebooks, but you can't have it all.
Overall a solid buy for anyone with an interest in the Clans, if just for the purpose of finding a different punching bag. |
