Battletech / The Capellan Solution / Loren L. Coleman

Threads of Ambition: Isis Marik, fiancé of Sun-Tzu Liao, is attacked in Capellan Space by a rogue St. Ives Compact unit. This gives Sun-Tzu the excuse he has been waiting for to go to war with the Compact. Despite their small numbers, the Compact forces put up the fight of their lives to maintain their freedom.

The Killing Fields: Sun-Tzu Liao’s “Xin Sheng” movement has picked up momentum with the occupation of many St. Ives Compact worlds, but as the fighting continues into a bloodier conflict both sides are left to wonder what they are fighting for.
