What happened to the star league mechs the clans took with them? Where they go? I mean, they must have taken quite alot more than the IS had at the time, with 80% of the forces leaving with Karensky.

| I figure they were eiher destroyed over time or put into Brian caches. Naturally there are also some still in service. It is also worth noting that 80% of the SLDF was not the same before and after the war against Amaris. Before = huge, after = decent-sized

AFAIK they're still using some as garrison units.

On this subject, how come in some games (mc1 & mw3) clanners are using IS stuff more than their own stuff? Crazy

| In MW3, I always figured the Smoke Jaguars were pressing whatever they could capture into use. They were never the most economically efficient clan, and they took huge losses during the invasion.

They were whacked in the Pentagon wars or whatever civil war they had. Some were tucked away, the rest used and abused as trainer mechs when the Clan system and Technology came into being.
AWAD- The Crab looks so cool

I could neer figure out why mech 4 was filled with mostly clan gear. It was a IS campaign after all.
Thug man myself, Just plain mean.

No, do not get me wrong, For pure thumping bad assness the Thug rules. I take that mech all the time. But for a unique and cool Btech look, the Crab is mucho grande.
AWAD- Then there is Tutu boy, love the mech and upper body is cool, but I bet Kintaro pilots have sexuality issues

I like the Highlander and the Mongoose myself...with the Hoplite comming a close second.
Didn't one of the sourcebooks say that the SL mechs ended up as secondline mechs?
