Handbook: House Davion

Battletech Field Manual/Sourcebook

by Christoffer M. Trossen

House Davion has dominated Inner Sphere politics and the military-industrial complex for centuries. It boasts a drive for technological innovation that reaches both the military and civilian sectors; a society built upon freedom for the ordinary man; a feudal system that empowers the First Prince like no other ruler. The swords of the Federated Suns have sliced out the largest and arguably most powerful realm in the history of mankind. Despite the recent ravages of a civil war, the people of House Davion know - and are proud of - their place in history.

Handbook: House Davion provides an in-depth look at the politics, the culture and the ever-present military of one of the most dominant players in the Inner Sphere. Yet Handbook: House Davion includes more than just background information, also providing a plethora of new creatures, personal weapons, life paths and more, for use with Classic BattleTech and Classic BattleTech RPG campaigns set in the Federated Suns!

[Garrett Henke · Rating 3 out of 5]

Close to 4 stars, the writing in this book is consistently good with a fairly exhaustive description of the Federated Suns. It does not, however, reach the same level of glory as the original Davion book from the 80’s that admittedly only covers history through 3025. Still, it was a fun read. The Inner Sphere is always a great sci-fi setting to come back to.
