Talk:Essay: Emblematic 'Mechs

Purpose and contributions

In mechs descriptions, I like a lot that some of them were more affiliated to a faction. For me, it added character to the universe. I was sad there wasn't a page that references the mechs most used by faction. It's why I created this essay. Usually, an essay is the work of one person. Unfortunately, I have very little knowledge of the lore and less access to trustworthy sources. If I allowed myself to quote some books in this essay, it's because there are sources in another article in this wiki. The absence of sources in some of this article forced me to retire the Commando as emblematic Mech for Lyran and the Wolverine for Free Wolrd. So I would be happy if people with more knowledge than me complement this essay by adding details about another period or enriching the one about the Third Succession War.

Inclusion of 3rd Succession War "Emblematic 'Mechs"

If the definition of "Emblematic 'Mech" is a 'Mech that is strongly associated with a faction (typically due to that faction controlling all factories that produce said 'Mech), then perhaps the following 'Mechs should also be included circa 3rd Succession War?

• Lyrans have the Commando (since even the Commando's article says that the other factories weren't producing the Commando until 3050). TRO 3025 is also a canon reference here.
• Davions have the Dervish (since the only factory producing the Dervish was on New Avalon). TRO 3025 is the canon reference here, I believe.

Your mileage may vary, of course, since this is an personal essay.
