    Yea, there could be FAR better situations to break that news to the Eridani.

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    That’s…oh hell. If the Clans hear about this they’ll send SOMETHING, if not a full invasion after this Amaris Pretender. On top of that this might only be the first wave of a full invasion, we just don’t know yet.

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    After taking a look at Sarna, there are two paths I see Henry being able to counter the RWR Warship threat, at least partially. Either he finagles his Essence for the points/money to buy ONE large Warship with escorting dropships, one of the second-line SLDF ships would be best as they are...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    That’s an oof, Henry is going to HAVE to play hardball. The only warships left in the Inner Sphere right now other than a few hidden/forgotten hulks are ComStar’s and the Dragoon’s.

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    It’s subtle , but the way Henry and Alexandria are interacting is really hammering home that they’re getting close. I think she might have failed successfully at her seduction attempt, given she gave up on it. The leap of logic that Henry is bait for a Combine or Amaris attack is close enough...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    Oh wow, the way Henry laid out everything in his head puts into perspective how weird the is particular timeline is. With the Essence Henry and his forces are basically an AU/OC Star League exile state, from beyond the Outworlds Alliance. There’s the Dragoons and Clans as expected, but also...

    I was more thinking doing swap/upgrade to DHS and Ferro armor to free up more dakka, ams, etc. And I honestly prefer streaks to artemis. Only really consider Artemis worth it if a missile carrier can spare the tonnage. Even ONLY swapping to dhs would be nasty.
  8. BlueRanger O-Doom

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    One of the things I love about the designs Henry is introducing (thank you to the OP and Bofors) are all very nasty, easy to manufacture Introtech designs. But that’s with Henry pulling his punches. Once circumstances allow Henry can roll out simple SLDF grade refit kits en-mass. Picturing the...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    I like how Alexandria is getting so caught up in the constant stream of changes Henry is enacting, as well as a bit of awe at his achievements, that she’s almost forgotten to try and overtly flirt with him. She’s slipped into the role by turns of friend, student, and peer that they’re...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    I love that Justin and Alexandria have been read in on most of the big secrets. The fact Alexandria was quiet for most all of that discussion means she’s processing the implications more than Justin. As for the Annihilator, the Introtech models at least, if the enemy has to come to you or go...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    Had an initial idea that Henry could buyout Bulldog Enterprises before Buddha Imperial does, but I had the locations mixed up. So that idea would never work. It wouldn’t help with the tank issue but if Henry can make a deal with Maltex or Starcorps he could get access to a license for the...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    Huh, I honestly hadn’t realized Hanse replaced Michael as Minister of/for Trade. Him being Henry’s point of contact makes more sense now. It also looks like crunch time on their decisions for future manufacture. I can’t help but imagine Henry Clay as an increasingly manic/stressed Poland-Ball...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    There it is, Clay just laid the purpose behind all this build up on the table. I know all the characters in the fic will know, but I figure there are at least a few readers that have forgotten or haven’t clued in. Clay is doing everything he can to give the AFFS the kind of parts commonality...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    I think Clay is easing into introducing new designs. Existing production lines in that weight class will also make it easier to expand later. PS: ninja’d

    It feels like most all the ASF still being used by the Third Succession War we’re about Gen 3 if we’re comparing them to modern jets. With the Star League variants being gen 3.5 and the new/reapearing models that come later gen 4. That’s just how it fits in my head.

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    Yea, given just how LONG most Aerospace Fighters have been produced it’s kinda hard to place how they sit as far as generational advances.The Centurion ASF would be roughly equivalent to a Mig-21 or F-5 Tiger I think? Or would it be more like an advanced trainer aircraft that can still be used...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    You think the various manufacturing companies in the FedSuns would get in line if Ian or Hanse gave them a nudge and Henry offered to just build them factories? Henry is starting to remind me of the guy who designed and built the Detroit Tank Factories and most of the Soviet tractor/tank...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    I'll be honest, I'm not 100% sure if the legal issue is just over the Demolisher or the Schrek as well. The proceedings might slow down production of the two heavy/assault weight tanks but there is NOTHING stopping Henry from building his medium tanks like it's WW2.

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    I THINK there was a background lore blurb brought up around the time ComStar started trying to expand the Comguard about reopening/rebuilding old SLDF manufacturing centers on Terra. If I remember right, companies that ComStar had major leverage over that had ties to those production lines were...

    One Rabid Fox changes the Succession Wars [A Battletech Isekai]

    Hmm, things being set up for the next arc(or arc’s?). The FedSuns are consolidating and Henry is setting up for the move to Bristol…and I have a feeling he’s going to nonchalantly build a full bore Star League automated factory complex underground somewhere. Or use the factory for engines to...
