==Author's Description of the AU==
This is an alternate timeline story starting from 3022, which rewrites the lead up too, and outbreak of the 4th Succession War.It is based firstly on the side bar on page 57 of the original House Marik Sourcebook, but quickly diverges into an alternate reaction by ComStar and the Kapteyn powers. I had an epiphany that started with the question “What if…”. What if Marik, Kurita,and Liao had struck first, before Davion and Steiner were ready, all manipulated by ComStar.The 4th War is now a very different beast, and what comes after has completely changed the balance of power in the Inner Sphere.The results of the invasions were gamed out and the story of the alternate war slowly written as we progressed the results of the war, using a highly detailed version of Succession Wars/Inner Sphere in Flames.
