−	[[Luthien Armor Works]] was working on an upgrade of the ''[[Mongoose]]'' for [[ComStar]] to be a faster and tougher scout [['Mech]], when the chaos on [[Luthien]] during the early years of the [[Jihad]] forced them to look elsewhere. ComStar financed a refit of a lost [[Rim Worlds Republic]] factory on [[Kwangjong-ni]], where new versions of the ''[[Zeus]]'' and ''[[Banshee (BattleMech)|Banshee]]'' were walking off the line for battlefield testing when the [[Word of Blake]] conquered [[Hesperus II]]. Anxious to stay solvent, ComStar [[C-bill]]s paid for the upgrade to the Kwangjong-ni facility.
