So if we went back in time as it were according to the FW map, should weapons like this not be available yet?

Back to the future.

Yer.... If they are going to do story mode then they should at least get that right but there is no way they can do this.

If they stick to the Civil War time period, where our new weapons and some Mechs come from, then the Inner Sphere map needs serious adjustment. For example the Ghost Bears had moved to the Inner Sphere and created the Ghost Bear Dominion. Also the Second Star League had invaded Huntress and Clan Smoke Jaguar was effectively Annihilated. Did I mention Clan Jade Wolf? Yep that was a thing.

The map is effectively stuck in the Invasion period at the battle of Tukayyid. I had no issue with this while players were actively fighting over it as deviation from lore was the result of player actions. Clans won Tukayyid and made it to Terra this time right?

If they are going to kill off Units, Mercs and Loyalists for Story Play then they should at least make the effort to set the time period properly and form stories around it.

would be interesting if you were limited to mechs/equipment available in the timeline of the story. of course that makes deck building rather tedious. sort of like how solaris has special rules making some builds invalid, so to would the current story arc. maybe even include mission elements where you have to use stock mechs.

Its like having all these new players experience the power creep we vets experienced.
