Intelligence uncovered after the Jihad revealed that another Martinson Armaments factory had been constructed during the late 3070s. Built under orders from [[Precentor Martial of the Word of Blake|Precentor Martial]] [[Cameron St. Jamais]] of the [[Word of Blake]] and kept secret, the Martinson Armaments factory was hidden within an abandoned Star League facility on the island of Quantico on the world of [[Liberty]]. From this hidden facility Martinson constructed the ''[[Yao Lien#Variants|Eidolon]]'', a [[FrankenMech]] constructed largely from surplus components manufactured for the [[Celestial series]] of [[OmniMech]]s.<ref name="TRO:3085p30">''Technical Readout: 3085 Supplemental'', p. 30: "YOL-4C Yao Lien"</ref>

This plant would remain a secret from the forces of the allied coalition during [[Operation SCOUR]], but the [[Capellan Confederation]] learned of its existence; both Capellan and coalition forces attempted to liberate Liberty, but the Capellans stole a march over the forces of Free Worlds Task Force II by mounting a lightning campaign to capture Quentin before agreeing a ceasefire. Then, as negotiations went on, the Capellans dismantled the factory, taking the plans for the design and the critical manufacturing equipment present on Liberty, along with a stockpile of parts to enable them to jump-start production. They then reassembled the facility on Capella under the auspices of [[Ceres Metals Industries]] and began producing a modified version of the ''Eidolon'' under a new name - the ''[[Yao Lien]]''.<ref name="TRO:3085p30"/>
