Description[edit]
Masters and Minions: The StarCorps Dossiers is a Jihad-era sourcebook providing Jihad-era profiles of prominent characters and factions in the BattleTech universe for the A Time of War role-playing game system.
From the back cover[edit]
“ | Who is the Director of the Internal Security Force? Planetary ruler of Regulus? Current Marshal of the Armies? Merchant Factor of Clan Diamond Shark?
As one of the most powerful interstellar corporations in the Inner Sphere—with satellite plants in every House—such questions are imperative for StarCorps Industries. In the tumultuous time of the Jihad, as power brokers fall and new personalities rise to prominence, the answers to such questions can mean the difference between a fat in-the-black account and operations in the red. And no corporation, much less one as powerful and far reaching as StarCorps Industries, treats failure well. |
