Its only fake if you try to pass it off as being 300 years old. It like a classic car built from a modern kit. Its still a classic car. It's just not 40+ years old. 

You could also recoup your expenses by selling copies of the plans.

After 90 years any mech does not have a single original part . once a mech starts continuously fighting it loses , limbs , gyros , heads ect , ect . All the mech requires are couple of parts that are 150 + years old to sell it . If you fight in battletech alot. Everthing is ablative . Only out of a factory are all the parts the same age that changes every battle

I wish MUL had slight more detail scaling for availablity of items per decade. 

Common
Uncommon
Regionally [Faction names/areas]
Outproduction
Rare
Unique
Extinct   

Or give a number 1-10 in availability.   Thunderhawk should have been like 0-5, chances it could be found in 3058, 0 in 3044.

Keith/Xotl has been working on that for decades.  He's awesome.  He's also a bit crazy (dedication wise).  And yet he's hit a brick wall, BattleTech's "everything for everyone" just piles on itself till it becomes too unwieldy for even crazy dedicated people.
