Company Profile
Home Office: East Lime, Tok Do (Circa 3067)[1]
President/CEO: Daimyo Kristof Webber (Circa 3067)[1]
Overview
Originally headquartered on its namesake world, Alshain Weapons has weathered increasing political upheavals in the 31st Century. When Alshain became part of Free Rasalhague Republic the Combine retained strong economic ties with the new nation and companies like Alshain Weapons to continue supplying the Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery. This link was cut, however, when the bulk of the Republic was conquered during the Clan Invasion. Alshain Weapons lost their factory on New Oslo to Clan Wolf and was forced to destroy their factory on Jarett to prevent its use by Clan Ghost Bear.[2][3][4]
Desperate to maintain production of the venerable Panther, the DCMS and the Combine Bureau of Procurement provided Alshain Weapons massive grants to build new facilities within Combine space, with the company ultimately relocating their facility on Krenice to Tok Do. The company also maintained its vitality via both joint ventures with Luthien Armor Works as well as the acquisition of the faltering Diplan 'Mechyards in 3060.[1][5]
