When the [[Helm Memory Core]] was recovered, the ''Marauder'' was an obvious candidate for [[lostech]] upgrades.  [[House Davion]] were among the first to field an updated variant, but their eagerness backfired when [[House Kurita]] captured [[Quentin]] - and its ''Marauder'' factory - in the [[War of 3039]].  With the Kuritans in possession of this first variant, the [[Federated Commonwealth]] decided to build a second using a different configuration.  Other lostech-inspired variants were also built in time for the [[Clan Invasion]].<ref name=TRO3050>''Technical Readout: 3050'', p. 174</ref>

A second revitalization of the ''Marauder'' occurred at the hands of the Capellan Confederation, though notably they had never before built the 'Mech themselves.  On behalf of Ceres Metals Industries, the [[Chancellor]] himself, [[Sun-Tzu Liao]], negotiated a deal to acquire the design from General Motors in exchange for allowing [[HildCo Interplanetary]] to resume exporting its products to the [[Federated Suns]].  While a success, disturbing rumors from the [[Periphery]] reported a number of these seemingly backwater realms fielding updated ''Marauders'' of their own, with origins suspected to be of a [[Word of Blake|sinister]] nature.<ref name=TROPP>''Technical Readout: Project Phoenix'', p. 48</ref>
