Hey editors, can I get some help on the following:
 
−
1) I don't currently have the DLC installed, so can someone who has it go through their mech database and fill in the rest of the HotIS Mechs in-game appearance date?  In the database this is the manufacture year, and if it's before 3015, just put 3015.
 
−
2) Is there a way to check which mechs actually have FF armor?  I'm pretty sure some of them have it that aren't listed.  But rather than play-testing every mech to see which ones cost twice as much to repair, I'm sure someone out there has a mod that lets us just read the specs.  If you can do it, either let me know or update the page yourself.  Thanks

I think we need to clarify which mechs we want to highlight blue as SLDF variants.  There are a lot of mechs used in MW5 that, as far as I can tell from the Sarna database, are the same variants with the same weapons as they were during the SL era.  But then we'd be highlighting a couple dozen more mechs.  So far it seems only SLDF variants with Lostech weapons, FF, or ES have been getting highlighted.  Please advise for consistency.

Hello MW5 editors and fans! I've encountered a problem trying to update the database with the costs of all the 'Mechs. The price in the official technical manual seems to be different than in-game. For example, the manual lists the BLR-1G at 8,612,678 but in-game I found one at a Federated Commonwealth hub (brand new of course) at 9,473,946 at indifferent faction standing. Additionally, there may be some differences between playing the Core and DLC versions, as has been noted in the High Reward Quests. If no solution can be determined, I would recommend removing this column from the page. I think the majority of players have a +/- reputation with any given house anyway, which changes the cost values. -csdavis715 (Aug 27, 2021)

I think it would be good to remove it. There are some Mechs listed as quest reward or no cost, so that could be noted in the source column. jgrahl 8/27/2021
