==Description==
The fourteenth part of [[CGL]]'s PDF exclusive mini-[[Technical Readout]] or TROlet series, '''''Experimental Tech Readout: Periphery''''' (abbreviated '''''XTRO:Periphery''''') highlights equipment produced by secondary factories and other assorted organizations during the [[Jihad]]. With the pressing need for replacements for military units lost in the fighting, these lesser civilian and secondary complexes are pressed into use limited facilities to build replacement equipment. This XTR, features 13 'Mechs, Vehicles and Aerospace craft that were built with [[Experimental Technology|experimental technology]]. As with all other XTRs, this PDF also includes record sheets for these new vehicles.

''For many of the major realms in the Periphery, the [[Jihad]] was just as devastating as it was to the [[Great Houses]] and [[Clans]] of the Inner Sphere. But as the tide began to turn against the [[Word of Blake]], the fanatics withdrew from most of these fringe worlds first, leaving behind technology and techniques that further fanned the flames of technological recovery. Scrambling to rebuild, the industries of the Periphery have almost reached technological parity with the larger Inner Sphere states, and new weapons and techniques are appearing even among these disparate, often-overlooked realms.''

Experimental Technical Readout: Periphery ''samples the custom and prototype designs that have begun to turn up in testing labs and top-secret proving grounds of the scattered realms of the local Periphery. Each design featured in this book incorporates some of the latest technologies developed by the realms of the Inner Sphere as the war against the Word of Blake winds toward its final conclusion. These technologies—first described in [[Tactical Operations]]—have yet to achieve widespread production, but each has been prototyped and rushed to the field for their desperate consumers. Statistics and Record Sheets are included for 13 new experimental BattleMechs, vehicles, aerospace units, and battle armor designs presented in this book, ready for play in advanced BattleTech games.''}}
