Mech with this design can be used in MWO?
Assault mech with 2 big ballistic slots + energetic slots for I.S. now will add balance for I.S. vs Clan batte.

Are you asking if the Nightstar is available in MWO, or if it can be added?

If you're asking if it's available: No, and none of the existing IS Assault can replicate the loadout.

If you're asking if it can be added: Also no, since some of the equipment necessary for the minimum three variants doesn't exist in-game yet, namely the IS Ultra AC/20 and IS LB-X/20.

But saying that it looks like a valid option if we ever do some kind of timejump and those weapons are released for Inner Sphere mechs.

If this is 3049, we've got nine years before the LB-X/20 is introduced, and eleven before the UAC/20. Don't hold your breath.

As i see there most variants for 3058.
But most important that Harmony Golg cant disable it design for MWO. Or can?

Two of the three variants use tech available now, but the third as mentioned is years away in-game. Only other variant is a mixtech custom piloted by the Dragoon, so unavailable also. Unlikely to appear unless they overhaul the skill system or invent a variant, and if they were going to invent than other much more well known/popular designs which are available in 3049 would get the nod.

While its meant to be derived from the Maruader, its not close enough to count for HG purposes.

Timeline ultimately doesn't matter.
We've already repeatedly shot canon in the face.
Just with clan and IS mechs on the same team.
Let alone that we have more than one Yen Lo Wang in game (or any Hero mech)

[Corwin Vickers]

The Clan invasion was supposed to take place a year ago so going by our 2X real time to game time you can expect to have these weapons and mechs in 2024-2034 by which time you will be driving a mech to work IRL.

It did begin R&E in 3036 so we could have a 3025 Tech, 3050 tech and one Hero (Tancred Sandoval)
