Rainbow 6

Legionnaire entry TRO3075, both factories are fluffed as not being new builds but as being existing factories, one each for Achernar & Coran, should these be active in 2785 and then out of production later in the succession wars?

It's possible- the first mention of these facilities is in TR3075 so we can do anything we want with them.

That'd be good, there just isn't enough known military industry to have built up the great house militaries.

Well we know Corean originally had 8 factories and only 3 are known (Stewart, New Avalon, Ramen II) so it is possilbe that Augusta is another one that was damaged during the SWs and later rebuilt. Acherner also had multiple factories prior to the SWs so it is possible that Cahokia was one of them.

Some additional details on Jalastar Aerospace of Panpour.

From HBHD p. 172
Jalastar started out building aerospace fighters but then diversified into ground units.  In 3067 has been building fighters, mechs & tanks for the AFFS for 3 centuries and the SLDF for 2 centuries before that.  What mechs did they build prior to  2785- it's not stated any where.  What tanks did they build during the SL era- the Manticore was build at Technicorp which was taken over by Jalastar during the SWs.

Another detail to work out-

Per TR3075 the Centurion Aerospace Fighter was introduced by the FS in 2430- 110 years before the UHC joined the FS.  So who originally designed and built the Centurion before Jalastar? How did Jalastar acquire the plans/license to build the design? When? (was it payment for joining the FS?)

Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.

More material from ER2750, FM:SLDF, Primatives 1,2 & 3, ED:Age of War and Threat Assessments 2785.  There are some issues here that need to be address, which I have noted.

Major production sites in the FS – New Avalon. Kathil Crofton, Talcott, Panpour & Salem – account for 50% of FS military production FR2765 p. 6 –ISSUE- Talcott & Salem are questionable- the GM plants there will not built until the 2nd SW and there is little indication that there were any facilities there prior to those.

Primitive Dervish was licensed to every manufacturers in every state Primitives Vol 3 p. 5

LTV-4 Hovertank – was licensed to manufacturers in every state Primitives Vol 2 p. 11

Many Hegemony firms with factories in the FS are incorporating advanced tech that should not be exported out of the TH FR2765 p. 6

Raimai built the Sabre in the FS – location? FR2765 p. 6

Mydron Corp built LB-10Xs for the AFFS ER2750 p. 98

ER Large Laser are built across known space ER2750 p. 99

Holly Streak launchers are built in the FS FR2750 p. 100

AMS – built by Cal-Boeing FR2750 p. 100 ISSUE – Cal-Boeing wasn’t founded until 2899- no way they were building AMS during the SL era.

Minor manufacturers in every state produce Endo Steel ER2750 p. 102

SLDF XVII Corps has several minor manufacturers on Ammo, IC Engines and Armor plating. FMSLDF p. 58

SLDF XXXIII area – no major mech manufacturers FMSLDF p. 60

SLDF LXVI area – few battlemech factories except for Crofton FMSLDF p. 62

The Golden Worlds (Golden 5?) build battlemechs FMSLDF p. 60

T-12 Tiger Tank production expanded to numerous worlds. H:RW p. 211

Bristol – Jolassa-Kumbold Armored Weapons produces the Fury & Fury II.  They are close to opening a battlemech plant. FMSLDF p. 54

Chesterton – Builds easy to produce equipment for SLDF armored assets FMSLDF p. 52

Crofton – StarCorps factory, opened early 26th century, built emperors, warhammers & longbows – Anjin Muerto Caballeros.
Crofton- StarCorps facility is on track to rival the size of the factory on Fletcher FR2765 p. 6
Crofton – StarCorp production lines are “incomplete” Will eventually produce Longbows and Warhammers FMSLDF p. 62
Delevan – Exostar Laser Tech, Universal Air, Dynamico FMSLDF p. 60

Demeter – Norse Battlemech factory – destroy in 2760 by a nuke – Emerson Pikemen
Demeter – Corean Enterprise battlemech factory – nuked by Cappies – Chesterton Dragoons
Demeter – Lycomb IntroTech – Aerospace fighter factory – Chesterton Dragoons
Demeter – the Arcadian Cuirassiers are equipped with products from Lycomb – Stukas, Hellcats, Guillotines and Awesomes FR2765 p. 11 ISSUE – from all the evidence Lycomb only built Aerospace fighters and further HBHD & HDSB both infer all they produced was the Stuka.  At a minimum the Mechs should be transferred to another manufacturer- There was a mech factory on Demeter.

Firgrove – Had a naval yard – products? FR2765 p. 18

Johnsondale – valiant systems has a factory on Johnsondale-FM:SLDF p. 49 ISSUE –other sources say the factory was not built until 3006

Kathil – Large GM Facility opened in 27th Century- built mechs (Marauders, Cestus, Black Jacks)  - Emerson Pikemen
GM built the AC/5 Ultra ER2750 p.98

Kestral – Industrial output rives New Avalon or Galax but much of the production is for civilian products. FMSLDF p. 62

Kirkland – Kallon Industries Tank Plant FMSLDF p. 61

Marduk- SLDF contracts with Norse Battlemechs allowed the production of advanced tech Wolverines and Griffins “Amongst other units” FM:SLDF P/.50

Marlette –Pelorian Motors produced Mechanized Infantry Vehicles FMSLDF p. 54

New Avalon – Novais Motors – Estevex Main Battle Tank – built from Early 2300’s to early 2400s.  ED Age of War p. 24-25
New Avalon - Achernar Battlemechs – built Battleax starting in 2459 Primatives Vol 2 p. 7
New Avalon- Achernar factory is built in a mountain. FR2765 p. 6
New Avalon – Corean Enterprises builds Star Guard FF Armor ER2750 p. 102

New Iversaan – many industrial facilities FMSLDF p. 51

New Syrtis – Johnson Industries built Gauss Rifles ER2750 p. 99 ISSUE from earlier material it seems Johnston did not exist until after the fall of the SL when they bought Tauken weapons on Addicks.  HDSB indicates that in 3025 they are considering opening a new factory on New Syrtis.  This reference seem flawed.
New Syrtis – mech equipment is produced here FMSLDF p. 52


Panpour – Jalastar Aerospace builds light mechs and fighters (types unspecified) – Messengers of Shiva

Pesephone – moon of Kestral site of one of the first battlemech factories in the FS. Built heavier designs.  – Kestrel Grenadiers. , Kestrel CMM

Robinson – Achernar Battlemechs – Products  Kurnass Battlemech.  Small factory. Kurnass production began 2735.  - Kurnass


Scudder – mines here produce Germanium. Disruptions of this production would affect dozens of shipyards FMSLDF p. 53 – NOTE- Dozens of shipyards means we need dozens of shipyards

Talon – Kallon – built the Hornet in 2760 Poorly received. Killarney Kerns
Talon – Kallon factory is built in a mountain FR2765 p.6

Tancredi – Precision Weaponry builds pulse lasers ER2750 p. 99

Torrence – Veridian  Dynamics builts the T-12 Tank.. H:RW p. 211

There are a lot of disappointing issues created by some of the new canon works that run in direct opposition to old canon text.

I don't buy all the extensive interior production stated in FR AFFS 2765. Instead I would favor the old school approach of industrialized border worlds like Jaipur for example over Talcott and Salem. Perhaps we could throw them a small bone for interior worlds to show future industrialized sites.

Advanced tech being produced in the Federated Suns circa 2785 doesn't bother as the SLDF was likely (in BTSD was in fact) supplied by Davion industry.

I don't mind the interior production sites, especially those around New Avalon- that is a heavily developed area and should have a lot of production, what is bothering me with the FR series is that the only production sites seem to be the ones that we know of in the 3025-2067 era.  I would like to see lots of new factories, factories which are wiped out during the SWs.  From reading the AFFS FR it doesn't feel like the FS lost a lot of production capability due to the SWs.

I'm glad you found that, to use the words of Chris in our IT department about my old laptop its cdefku!(rearranged to avoid offence).

Looking over it I feel that GM on Kathil needs more designs in production the Marauder (-2R downgraded to the -3R during the succession wars) and Nightstar (-9J two production sites in 2785 both destroyed in 2786) would make sense to me.
