TECHNICAL READOUT 3062

INTRODUCTION 4
This Technical Readout is the result of two years’ intensive labor on the part of Our Order in general and the men and women of the Archives and Records arm in particular. It is
intended to educate new Adepts of Our Order and simultaneously present a concise brief to more experienced members of the current state of battlefield technology, including
(but not restricted to) the BattleMech. As such, it is classified Secret and not for dissemination outside of Comstar.
The current political climate can be summed up in three words: ‘business as usual’. The Federated Commonwealth split, after 30+ years of cooperation, has begun to polarize
members of the former Federated Suns and the Lyran Alliance. Rumors of an impending Civil War between factions loyal to Archon Katrina Steiner-Davion or Our Precentor Mar-
tial, Victor Steiner-Davion are rife, and with good reason. The fighting between the Capellans and the Saint Ives Compact rages on, although the outcome is not much in doubt.
And so we have war
With wars come machines designed to conquer; BattleMechs, tanks, VTOLs, hovercraft and various and sundry support equipment. But one of these will be enough for this,
the initial release of the Technical Readout for 3062. This first volume will focus on the current state of Inner Sphere and Clan BattleMechs. Here we will take a brief look at the
standouts, starting with 20 ‘Mechs from all over the Inner Sphere and another fifteen from Clan Space.
Some are updates of older machines, while a select few are brand-new concepts. The reports on all of them have been thoroughly researched and vetted from multiple sources.
Note that only the more significant upgrades have been included; minor tweaks to an existing frame or a ‘one-off’ destined for the Solaris stables does not qualify a ‘Mech for
inclusion. They do not, in our opinion, ‘make the cut’.
A word of caution before proceeding – some of the designs contained herein feature weapons systems which are still very much in the development stage. Principal among these
are the Heavy Particle Projection Cannon and the Snub-nose PPC. The Houses are always hard at work inventing and perfecting such improved gunnery and it is only natural
each should field-test its designs at the earliest opportunity. That said, Our Order does not expect either of the aforementioned weapons (or any similar prototype) to appear in
full production numbers for at least another five years. Our best estimates project that such variants will debut with House Kurita first. But it is only a guess.
Thanks be to Precentor Martial Victor Steiner-Davion, whose inspired leadership was responsible for the utter destruction of a Clan. It may be said that he is a ‘hero without wor-
ship' in his home realm; yet We who know all, know best what this man has done for Mankind. His name is enshrined forever; he is Legend. It humbles us that he has not only
given his gracious permission for the issue of this edition of the Technical Readout, but personally attended to its final edit, donating precious personal time and energy despite
the heavy load he bears.
Finally, I wish to express a personal debt of gratitude towards Precentor Thule Martin, who came out of retirement to offer his inexhaustible professional knowledge of the Clan’s
weapons systems, battlefield tactics, logistics capability and way of thinking. He has proven a priceless resource time and again. This edition of the Technical Readout would
not have been possible without him.

INNER SPHERE MECHS 5
The recent annihilation of Clan Smoke Jaguar by the combined forces of the Inner
Sphere gave some in Our Order cause to celebrate. After all, if the Houses could
forget their endless fighting to accomplish such a difficult task, perhaps other goals
were not as unattainable as we once thought. But even with the re-born Star
League triumphant, it was readily apparent that the remaining Clans were not going
to pack up and move back to Strana Mechty. Furthermore, events even now are
coming to a head in the former Federated Commonwealth which herald more con-
flict in the near future. How much, we cannot say.
Some predict minor skirmishes concluded by the assassination of either side’s
leader. As one of these leaders is none other than Our Order’s own Precentor Mar-
tial, Victor Steiner-Davion, most conclude this is unlikely. Another outcome which
has more support and is (sadly) more probable is a Civil war, one in which it is said
the fighting will eclipse even the great battle between Kerensky and Amaris, though
that is hard to imagine. This, along with the natural tendency of the Houses to ex-
ploit one another’s weaknesses, spells major trouble, perhaps as soon as 3063.
And Our Order is not the only body to come to this conclusion.
All the Houses are fortifying their borders, pouring billions of credits into research
and development on the predication of impending war; indeed, even the Clans are
gearing up their sibkos, training camps and production facilities for they know not
what. As a result, 3062 is proving to be a watershed of sorts.
The Inner Sphere in particular is busy creating upgrade packages for existing
‘Mech frames; they consider it a quicker and ultimately more cost-effective method
of increasing their available forces than the time-honored investment in new pro-
duction facilities, replacement battleframes and the years of lead time these re-
quire. Of new designs, there are a few, a very few, but they use existing factory
capacity and do not embody any great technological leaps. Instead, they more ad-
equately fill gaps in battlefield doctrine left by ineffective ‘stopgap’ forebears.
The strategic and tactical doctrine of each House has been honed to a fine edge
over the past two decades – there is not much left to discuss concerning the Clan
threat, which has been blunted by assimilation, or the perennial spats between the
haves and the have-nots of each House. Of the appearance of new ‘Mechs, much
more may be said, and to greater profit. Many of these new Inner Sphere designs
are actually depot-level refits intended to perform new tasks, execute existing du-
ties more efficiently or serve as test beds for new types of weaponry and tactical
thinking. Some (as was noted above) are entirely new designs meant to fill roles
which did not exist two years ago.
While there may be much classroom debate as to whether or not these machines
will actually fulfill their promise, it remains a fact that Our Order is still viewed with
suspicion by nearly every House – and the maxim ‘know thine enemy’ still applies
to even the lowliest Adept. Especially now.

The destruction of the Smoke Jaguars has had a great impact on the Clans as well. Clan politics
between Wardens and Crusaders has always been contentious, but it was hoped the Smoke
Jaguar’s example would serve as a warning to those Crusaders who thought defeating the Inner
Sphere would be a matter of waiting until our guard was down. And it is true, the pace of in-
ternecine fighting has slowed somewhat. There are a number of reasons for this.
One is that the rapid expansion of Clan-dominated worlds has strapped their military forces over-
all, while the defeat at Tukayyid still echoes through empty warrior mess halls and understaffed
headquarters alike. The Clans have a population problem. Some respond by importing the popu-
lations of entire worlds to new homes carved out of the Inner Sphere. Others are hurriedly ramp-
ing up Trueborn gestation sites and training schools.
Another is that some of the most hidebound, reactionary elements of Clan culture have been forced
to retreat to their homeworlds. The firebrand iKhans of the past are no more, replaced with more
politically savvy descendants who see some value in assimilation and even a relaxation of the
strict caste system as they settle down to actually living on the worlds they so recently seized by
force.
However, the true legacy of the Smoke Jaguars may even now be finding expression, not in more
peace talks and increased trade, but in accelerated military research and construction. Such de-
velopment forms a continuous backdrop to all civilizations, but the Clans are a Warrior-centric cul-
ture and for them, new weapons, tactics and delivery systems are literally a way of life. Rather
than focus on a few Clans for this Technical Readout, we of the Archives and Records arm decided
to branch out and incorporate intelligence gathered from all corners of Clan-space. What we found
was surprising.
Clans as diverse in outlook as the Fire Mandrills, the Jade Falcons and the Cloud Cobras have
begun fielding new configurations of older Omni-Mechs. Even the Steel Vipers, a Clan not seen in
the Inner Sphere since 3052, are fielding a conventional ‘Mech based on the old Hellbringer (Loki)
Omni-Mech design. New weapons technology is appearing at an increased rate, as the Advanced
Tactical Missile system shakes off its early flaws and finds its way into Clan battlefield doctrine. At
the same time, older ‘off-the-shelf’ weapons systems find widespread employment in new con-
figurations as the Clans attempt to relieve the pressure on their factories and supply lines until
they can ‘catch their breath’ and bring new production facilities online.
Most notable of the ‘Mechs listed here are four entirely new Omni-Mech designs. Clans Fire Man-
drill, Hell’s Horses, Steel Viper and Coyote are all throwing their hat in the ring as it were, introduc-
ing the Ferratus, Falcata, Thylacine and Dimacheri, respectively. Ranging from 65 to 95 tons, these
are all efficient, carefully-considered designs which stand a good chance of replacing their seasoned
predecessors as they work their way into other Clan militaries through trade and battlefield salvage.
A final note: as of this writing, word has arrived that Draconis Combine forces have attacked the
world of Alshain in regimental strength. It is presumed they are attempting to retake the capital of Clan
Ghost Bear by force. What possible motive could be behind this surprise move? Given the Bear’s
overwhelming presence in the area and past evidence of their strength, it is difficult to imagine House
Kurita ordered the assault. Perhaps it is simply another political ploy, one of many made in recent
years. Regardless, the result is sure to spell hard days to come for the Combine and its neighbors.

their mysterious masters. ComStar named this design the Mad

of an XL Class engine, Endo Steel internal structure, Ferro-Fi-

THE FUTURE OF WARFARE
The year is 3062 and the Inner Sphere is entering a period
of time where the opportunities for peace have never been
greater. With the new Star League firmly in power and the
Treaty of Tukayyid still holding after the Clan’s Great Refusal
War, the stage could be set for a new Golden Age of Mankind.
Unfortunately, trouble simmers beneath the surface.
The ongoing dispute between the Cappellan Confederation
and the St. Ives Compact is a potential flashpoint which may
spread to neighbouring realms. The new level of co-operation
between House Liao, the Magistry of Canopus and the Tau-
rian Concordat known as the Trinity Alliance may mark the
creation of a new super-state. The Federated Suns are expe-
riencing extreme levels of unrest and the Lords of the Capel-
lan and Draconis March are itching to strike back at their
ancient enemies.
Growing anxiety among the worlds of the extinct Federated
Commonwealth is behind increasingly violent protests, as loy-
alists in both House Davion and Steiner strike out at one an-
other. This unrest may be the harbinger of a Civil War which
could engulf the Inner Sphere. The Draconis Combine faces
new enemies from within as it desperately defends itself
against constant Clan encroachment from without. And then
there are the usual disputes in the various border regions, es-
pecially the aptly-named Chaos March. Finally, the Word of
Blake and ComStar are at each other’s throat in a struggle for
power which threatens to spill over into open war.
The seeds of potential doom are sown far and wide.
This latest Readout highlights the new breed of Battle-
Mechs that are being built. Newer, deadlier technologies are
being pushed to the forefront, moving from the testing labs
to the battlefield at an ever-increasing pace which will only
fan the flames of destruction.
