Five years after the Helm Memory Core was decoded by NAIS on New Avalon, Iroquois Machinery Limited utilized the technology breakthroughs derived from the core to develop a new AgroMech design. The Harvester is based on Star League prototype schematics of a new compact IndustrialMech. The new Iroquois 'Mech proved to be three times faster than conventional harvesting machines at similar tasks. The 'Mech is equipped with a 15 ton capacity lift hoist on its right arm, which allows it to handle heavy loads of grain. The hoist is then able to load its cargo onto trailing cargo trucks. A combine harvester takes the place of its left hand actuator.

Does this mean that we're getting a mecha farm simulator spinoff? Because that would be great.

What happened to the yard working classics in battletech farming? No Sears "Craftsman", no International Harvester, no Massey-Ferguson, no Toro? Are you trying to tell me Home Depot is done by 3048? Time to short 'em!

If we're putting in 'Mech farming, I make a request that we also implement 'Mech Fishing.

Do want.
