Well, I liked the part where all those clan 'Mechs were blown up.
But before that it felt like a clan propaganda movie (well, the guy who made it is a Wolf after all).

For me it's just a very brief introduction to BattleTech, but not to the history. For that it is too short and misses too much: All the Succession Wars would need some brief introduction as well as some words about how the StarLeageu technology was lost and rediscovered and also about the reformation of the states: St. Ives Compact, FRR, the formation of the FedCom etc.
But especially it's missing some actual dates for all that stuff that is talked about.

But that may be the historian in me talking.

He's got the Lyran Alliance emblem instead of Commonwealth at the start.

It was Comstar that halted the advance of the Clans at Tukayyid after learning of the clan's goal of conquering Terra. Comstar Betrays the Clans at this point and more or less gambles Terra for 15 years of peace so the Inner Sphere can get ready.
