Will the person you're paired up against for bidding get to see your OpFor force before bidding?

No.  During the mission briefing, I'll remind everybody of the OPFOR guidelines.  That should narrow things down far enough that people are able to intelligently bid.  Following the bidding, the OPFOR player will come over to the staging table and will get a random OPFOR set (if they get their OPFOR, they have to put it back and get another).

Can anybody provide info on finding "Royal Star League" vehicles? This is the first I've heard of such a thing.

Thanks

TRO275O will have a bunch of the vehicles  from the Star League  timeframe.  You can also go to the master unit list online and select the Star League Era and get a list that way.  In terms.of which ones are Royal variants,  look in the fluff.  For mech it's usually a variant that ends with a lowercase  b.

Since they have made a hash of where the information in the old 2750 TRO is...
If you have the 3050 Upgrade version of the 3050 TRO, the base vehicles are in there (the royal variants are not discussed in 3050 TRO... sigh). The royal vehicles upgrades are mentioned on page 169 of the 3075 TRO denoted with a (*). Most of the changes are relatively simple and slight, usually changing an SRM launcher for some Streak SRM-2s or adding adding Artemis IV FCS to the launchers. The mechs are likely to change a standard weapon to an ER or LB-X/Ultra. The best of the royal mechs upgrade to double heatsinks (looks at Highlander HGN-732b, Battlemaster BLR-1Gb, ....).  Space is made either by using a XL engine or adopting endo-steel or FF armor.

Vehicles
Gabriel
Ripper *
Beagle
Rotunda
Nightshade *
Cyrano *
Lightning *
Zephyr *
Chaparral
Kanga
Thor Artillery Vehicle
Demon *
Marksman
Magi
Burke
Fury *
Rhino *
Puma *

Mechs without b suffix
Wolverine II WVR-7H
Crusader CDR-2R
Marauder MAD-1R/-2R
Rifleman II RFL-3N-2

Rob, what's the Sandblaster SPA you included?  I'm guessing you get a bonus on your roll when using cluster ammo on LB-X weapons, but am not sure where it's listed.

ATOW Companion, pg65.

The effect is to increase Cluster rolls by +2 at long, +3 at medium, and +4 at short range with a weapon you already have the Weapon Specialist SPA for.

Unfortunately, a complete listing here of all ATOW and ATOW(c) SPAs is beyond the bounds of copyright, as it was during the Apocalypse Rising campaign.  Folks will have to source those documents for themselves (this comment is also targeted at Ice).  

Rob, I see that some of your examples use Sandblaster.  Do you not have to have Weapon Spec first?
