==Description==
'''''Jihad Hot Spots: 3070''''' picks up where ''[[Dawn of the Jihad]]'' left off, updating the course of the [[Jihad]] through [[3070]]. The book is again divided up by faction, but the greater division is in time, specifically one section for six months. In addition to information on the [[Inner Sphere]] and [[Clans]], some information about the [[Periphery]] finally trickles out in the sourcebook. Also of note is the continuation of the style of ''Dawn of the Jihad'', including the journalistic treatment the events are given. Perhaps the most notable shift is the inclusion of scenario tracks at the end of each major section, rather than in one large annex at the end of the book. Instead, that space is reserved for other rules, including the use of nuclear weapons, which is in addition to the usual new units that accompany a sourcebook.

==Notes==
 
* This sourcebook, or at least parts of it, makes an in-universe appearance as a data file named "Jihad Hot Spots" in the short story ''[[Blue Waters]]''.
 
* The cover shows the annihilation of the [[Knights of the Inner Sphere]] in a Blakist chemical attack on [[Atreus (FWL)|Atreus]].
 
* Editors: whenever you cite ''Jihad Hot Spots: 3070'' in an article, please also cite the relevant pages from ''[[Blake Ascending]]'', which duplicates each page from ''Dawn of the Jihad'' page-for-page. In ''Jihad Hot Spots: 3070'', each page is exactly the same as the same page in ''Blake Ascending'', when 160 is added to the page number from ''Jihad Hot Spots: 3070'' (ex: ''JH:3070'' p. 40 is the same as ''BA'' p. 200).
