==Overview==
 
==Overview==
One of the many Solaris 'Mech design firms, the Solaris City based Omnitech Industries is best known for the ''Koto'', an heavily rebuilt advanced tech 25 ton version of the ubiquitous ''[[Locust]]''. The company success with the ''Koto'' however was off-set by the failure of the 95-ton ''Colossus'', an expensive experimental melding of the ''[[Marauder II]]'' and the ''[[King Crab]]'' whose reputation suffered after a number ignoble defeats in the arenas, causing financial hardship for the company. <ref name=HHS148>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 148, "Omnitech Industries Profile"</ref>

Omnitech Industries was a BattleMech design firm producing 'Mechs for the Solaris VII arenas.

Overview[edit]

One of the many Solaris 'Mech design firms, the Solaris City-based Omnitech Industries was best known for the Koto, a heavily rebuilt advanced tech 25-ton version of the ubiquitous Locust. The company's success with the Koto however was offset by the failure of the 95-ton Colossus, an expensive experimental melding of the Marauder II and the King Crab whose reputation suffered after a number of ignoble defeats in the arenas, causing financial hardship for the company.[1]
