==Description==
'''''Technical Readout: 3057 Revised''''' (''TRO:3057 Revised'') is the third publication (after [[DropShips and JumpShips]] and [[Technical Readout: 3057|TRO:3057]]'') that focuses on aerospace designs. In-universe, it purports to be an intelligence publication by [[Wolfnet]], updating the previous publications by [[ComStar]].  
+
Technical Readout: 3057 Revised is a in-universe intelligence publication on all Aerospace base vehicles used in 3057 and in previous eras.  
  
Unlike previous revised editions of older ''TROs'', the ''TRO:3057 Revised'' is not a managed response to the [[Unseen]] issue, but rather an attempt to update all existing aerospace designs to the changed rulesets of [[AeroTech 2]]. It makes the notable attempt to be ''the'' capital ship technical readout, with updated game stats and the adding of over twenty [[WarShip]]s that had only been referenced before.
+
This book essentially replaces previous edition under the same name. It makes the notable attempt to be ''the'' capital ship Technical Readout for [[AeroTech 2]], with updated game stats and the adding in of over twenty [[WarShip]]s that had only been referenced before.
