I still disagree on the cache finding. All of the known Aegis that went on the Exodus are accounted for in the standing Toumans. You want a lot of Heavy Cruisers go with the Sovetskii Soyuz

I'd agree with Bradshaw here, the Aegis class is overused especially compared to how many there are and what survived. Sovetskii Soyuz are a dime a dozen plus there are many Destroyer classes and hell even more McKennas which should be around.

Gotta say I love the idea for the Crow OmniFighter. It is so Snow Raven plus reflects a real life tribe of noted warriors which seems to meet the naming convention for the Clans. Great stuff!

I'm intrigued by the Station names as well. Are they anything special or just recharge stations. I'd like to make them something a little more special.

Which will turn them into legitimate targets or not.

Each chased the Ice Hellion, hunting it down.
All failed to match the predator's speed and grace.

Though I didn't think about this at first but would it make a difference? I know they would then consider military targets if has weapons, but bidding and challenging is done for everything already on planets I would think Recharge Stations would make extremely valuable targets.

Haven't been paying attention, missed this.  It definitely sounds interesting; let me know if you need help.

I have to say, with another of Marauder's projects on the way and the TWO from another site, these are the only things that keep me interested in Battletech these days.

Using the resources of their binary system the Ravens build these ships to replace their Aegis class ships which are simply too old, even with refits and upgrades, metal fatigue is bone deep and they're just too old to be fixed without basically rebuilding them to replace the worn out hull sections.

Like the name choice much more than mine.

Yours is more realistic I overloaded mine with non-capital weapons
