Of course, this need not be specific to Alpha Strike, though it is more difficult in Total Warfare terms to collect all of the rules need to handle the full range of Horse ground units in play as of 3151. Perhaps a sidebar at the end of the CHH section, directing new players to go check out Tamar Rising to see where the Horses stampede to next, might be in order? Plus, by the time the BTU sourcebook is to be released, Tamar Rising would have already been published, which (potentially) will have bolstered this Clan's visibility as a power in the IlClan Era. So, if the Horse writeup were to emphasize their combined-arms philosophy, or perhaps to even mention that such things as ProtoMechs and QuadVees exist (and that the player should look to AS:CE in order to use them), that would be quite welcome. Right now, all of the ProtoMechs, QuadVees, and other combined-arms units which help define the Horse touman are supported on the MUL and in AS:CE - rules-wise, that is. Say, if a new (or at least new to AS) player flicks over to the Hell's Horses writeup in the BTU sourcebook and decides that they find this particular Clan to be of interest.

What I mean is that, whereas AS:CE includes the actual rules to use a given ground-based unit, my hope is that the BTU book would help set those rules in their proper context.
