Here is the link to the general overview of House Davion and what it encompasses. That wiki site is also a great source for information on mechs and planets.

Here is some information on the various Military units and overall military structure of House Davion.

If someone wants to post a Mech list for House Davion that has more of the sourcebooks than I do, please do so.

Great list Lord Harlock!

I'd like to add two factories that were lost to the DC but over the years turned out thousands of mechs for the Federated Suns, many of which are probably represented in AFFS forces.

Norse Battlemech Works on Marduk:
Lost during the 4th Succession War in 3028

Produced:

Medium
Wolverine
Griffin

Independence Weaponry on Quentin
Lost during the War of 3039

Produced:

Heavy:
Marauder

Assault:
Victor
Atlas

From what I remember the FedSuns had plenty of Victors. Hanse gave Victor Davion a Victor as a gift for one of his birthdays if I'm not mistaken.

We seem to have missed the plant on Talon that produces

Enforcer
Griffin
Rifleman
Jagermech

Also, we can add Tikonov to the list of Mech producers as well.

Vindicator
Thunderbolt
Cataphract

Also, we must not forget, we are part of a larger family at the moment with House Steiner, and we have access to all of the great mechs they produce as well.

Zeus
Atlas
Banshee (refit)
Wolfhound
Commando
Vulcan
Firestarter
Warhammer
Crusader
Stalker

Awesome, jumped into BattleTech really young. It's not popular at all here either, so yeah... It's great to get more info in. :)

Next to the ones produced in the Federated Suns, there are bound to be a legion of other models walking around.

From what i got from the BT books mechs are not often a total loss when they are out of action. They get either recovered by their own side or taken as salvage by the other. With enough spare parts and repairs they often would start a 2nd 3rd 4th career in some other House or Merc regiment.

Until the discovery and distribution of the Star League core from Helm, mechs where often heirlooms, passed on from Parent to child, serving generations of a family. Of course loosing your mech then would mean you would become disposed with a big fall of status.

There was also a House Davion pdf somewhere on the official BT site which listed the history until 4th Succession War. Might be a good read if you are interested in those stuff.

The Battletech site is under construction, it looks like it might be unavailable for a little while. Though some compies might be floating around the net. The old book is a great source for background info.

Also there is the updated Handbook: House Davion available in print and pdf at the various stores.

I may still have some of the old Source Books in electronic form. In a box someplace, I have all the old source books I started collecting while I was overseas. As I recall I even have one of the original Star League books I got online. What you looking for!!!

We were very prolific back in the day. Looking through the old files, found old House Rosters, Knights lists, Field Manuals for training, Org and TOE chart. Histories...it goes on and on. Files 12 years and older.

IIRC the Victor in the 3040s is imported from the SIC, in addition the Shadowhawk is imported from the MoC.

The Devastator also started moderate production at the North-Storm Loxley facility in 3048.

The Chameleon could also be shoe horned in across the IS as it served as the primary academy trainer.
