However, there is no info at all on them in the IE.
Anyway, it happens in the "remarks", and not in the allegiance column.
There are Fl worls marked as Non Aligned, Client State of the Imperium
or even Aslan New Lords. BTW, I don't recall any mention of the new
lords either in the Imperial Encyclopedia or in the Aslan Alien
Module. Is it something post-rebellion (in which case I'll dutifully
ignore it)?

There is on Italian edition of Traveller, only an unscrupolous

Anyway, I only have the Encyclopedia, and not the Player's or
Referee's manual; I use Classic rules.
I am collecting all Classic traveller material I find, but I can't
find the Spinward Marches supplement... :-(

I see, thanks for the errata. Any changes in allegiances? All my
information about District 268 comes from the Tarsus box, which
doesn't say much about allegiances; were they changed?
