Talk:Banshee (BattleMech)

Due to the description of the Banshee's production years reading "...producing five thousand Banshees in a decade before its poor combat performance finally forced them to stop production", I have set the production ceased date for the Banshee in 2455. Feel free to revert if this is contradicted by canon or my conjecture is incorrect. Mattiator (talk) 17:24, 23 April 2013 (PDT)

Production of the Banshee was also restarted with the advent of the -3S variant. That makes the "cease production" date a bit more complicated. --Scaletail (talk) 18:24, 23 April 2013 (PDT)

Production Date Confusion

So can anyone explain to me why we don't use the original variant in the infobox (and thus on the year pages, etc.); for this one it was first produced in 2445 but the variant in the infobox was 2475, and it is unnecessarily confusing. I just don't understand why the oldest one isn't used. -BobTheZombie (talk) 15:54, 31 July 2014 (PDT)
