List of IS powers and Clantech
« on: 06 July 2020, 08:05:22 »
Ok, caught this in the Recognition Guide thread and got me wondering, but didn't want to derail the thread.

Many of the mixed tech ‘mechs are limited to only having clan tech that the faction is already shown to be producing (in the XTR series, 3145 or 3150 TRs for example).  So if the Lyrams don’t haven clan guards rifles or HAGs, they can’t put one on a Zeus.
I don’t work on the Zeus, so I’m not sure that’s exactly what happened there. But you can’t just flip a switch to mixed tech and put whatever clan tech you want on an IS mech. You had to support your choices, where did that clan tech come from?

So does anyone have a list of who can make what as of 3149?

I don't have a list, but I can tell you what I know.

FedSuns:  Exostar Pinnacle Lasers are Clantech  (ER Large, Medium, Small, and Small Pulse) and produced in the FedSuns, from the entries for the Black Knight and Vulpes in TRO 3145: FS.

Also, don't forget the Sea Foxes with sell the Clantech Kingston DDS ER PPC to everyone.  (Black Knight, Yinghuochong, and more)

Cheers,

Shigunga makes Clan LRMs in the Combine, but who knows what else the Combine makes now that they possess all the former Nova Cat production sites.
I have spoken.

Here's the list of what I found with my free afternoon:

Exostar is making cMPLs in the FedSuns (TR Prototypes).  They're making clan-spec ER lasers and SPLs as well (TR3150).

GM is making LMGs and Corean is making MG arrays, also in the FedSuns (TR3150).

Robinson Standard BattleWorks is probably making clan DHS for the Black Knight.

The Draconis Combine seems to have gotten most of its clantech from the Nova Cats, so they could be producing just about anything now.  They are confirmed to be producing Cizins on Luthien, and Shigunga is making clantech LRM racks for the Shiro.

The former FWL and the Capellans seem to be buying from the Sea Foxes rather than making their own.

The Lyrans are making some combination of clantech XL engines, LRMs, and ER lasers at Hersperus.

Also the Streak SRM-6s on the Juliano.

It seems the Lyrans are producing the Ursa 2C on Tharkad, a completely Clantech design.
