posted passively:
fact: each of the early 21st century populations of affiliatons in BT have been reciprocated (Japan's population got way bigger becoming the Draconis Combine; China's population became way smaller becoming the Capellan Confederation) so it stands to reason that Native American population was inverted in BT to become very big.
fact: BT is a game. many Native Americans in real life have casinos to play card, roulette, and other gambling games at. that reminds me, what happened to the gambling skill that was published in MW3RPG but wasn't published in AToW? also, i wonder if a Native American descendant would put feathers and beads on a 'Mech/ProtoMech/Battle Armor, and maybe her/his 'Mech would use a 'Mechbow & arrows.

Fact: Each of the MAJOR dominate cultures of the 1980s was used a blue print for national existence. Steiner = Germanic cultures, Davion = English/American cultures, Kurita = Japanese and possibly South Korean culture, Liao = Chinese and South East Asian cultures, and Marik = Mediterranean and European cultures not included in the others. Non-socialist Russian got represented in the SLDF/Clans and by Kerensky.
Any Socialist or Communist cultures do not exist because this an US product made during the cold war. Likewise, Middle East/Asia Minor and Central Asia/Indian cultures are not represented because, again, this was an US product and these cultures were viewed as lesser during the 80s.

The original House Books from the 80s covered the break down of the populations of the Houses and where they linked back to on Terra.
The Free Worlds League had many of what the First World Nations consider Second or Third World ethnic groups.

Or have their minor states elsewhere within Periphery or greater states, like Arabian in DC (Arkab), Spanish/Latin America in Taurian Concordate etc.

Thankfully, the designers have addressed the cultures that were not in the original universe write ups.

Well, I think that CBT universe aged pretty well. It could use a bit of tweaking in it's prehistory, but it works fine otherwise IMO...

then you'll want the Capellan Confederation 'Mechbow rules officially published given how that 'Mechbows, that're derived from Ancient China Bows, are of industrial revolution tech so 'Mechbows aren't as advanced as other BTtech

No, just no.
Overly complex rules for ridiculous weapons that have no place in battle tech dont HAVE to be published simply because YOU deem it necessary.

rules for Capellan Confederation 'Mechbows could be published in Interstellar Operations  i don't deem it necessary, but given Vagabond's first reply to this topic, i'm guessing he'd believe they're necessary

AlayneLeung, i could be incorrect but there doesn't seem to be any official BT product(s) that directly indicate that ComStar personnel are mostly descended from Original Americans (Native Americans), but after i did a Google search for Cameron native american, that search provided about 4,480,000 results, and i also did a Google search for is Cameron a native american name, and that search indicated that name Cameron is both an Original American name and a Celtic name that both translate as "crooked nose", and what's also interesting is that the last name of a First Lord of the 1st Star Leauge was Cameron (first name was Richard) and the Cameron battlecruiser was published as an official BT TRO 3057 WarShip; hope this info benefits you
