The halt to the invasion forced upon the Clans by ComStar's victory on

Tukayyid means that the major military action in the Inner Sphere will once

again be border skirmishes and raids . This report provides all the information

currently available on post-Clan-invasion Inner Sphere, Periphery, and Clan

troop movements and unit deployment. In addition, the updates provided on the

status of major military-goods manufacturing sites should help us predict where

these military actions will most likely occur during the next fifteen years .

The four major sections in this report will help ComStar administrators and

the Com Guards defend against raiding actions of the Clans and Inner Sphere

militaries. Conducting Raids describes the tactics most commonly used by raiding

parties and a brief description of the Clan's military structure and philosophy .

Frontline Forces provides current unit listings for all forces stationed near the

Clan-Inner Sphere and Inner Sphere-Inner Sphere borders . (These listings do

not include the complete Federated Commonwealth and Draconis Combine

militaries, only those units stationed on borders or strategically important

worlds likely to be the target of raiding .)

Border Worlds comprises an alphabetical listing of the planets on each

border, the units that defend that world, units within jump radius of the world,

and any industry found on that world . The industry listings include all

components manufactured by that company or plant . Border Worlds is followed

by Typical Industrial Set-Ups, which provides the layouts for two common

factory types . The report's final section is an easy reference to where military

components are manufactured in the Inner Sphere .
