	==Overview==		==Overview==
−	Edasich Motors was formed after the [[House Edasich|Edasich family]] took over the operation of two major fusion engine factories, a [[Vlar Industries]] production plant on Edasich and a [[Pitban Power Systems]] line on [[Kirkcaldy]]'s moon of Tentra, following the collapse of the [[Star League]] in [[2784]]. During the [[Succession Wars]] the company's story was a familiar one, its products increasingly vital during the war torn era to power [[Defiance Industries]] famous ''[[Zeus]]'' and [[Atlas (BattleMech)|''Atlas'']] [[BattleMech]]s, but its production volumes steadily dropping to one-fifth their former rate as jury-rigging replaced now [[LosTech]] parts. Unable to repair their existing factories, Duke Martin Edasich considered building a new fresh factory on a more peaceful interior world, a project that received new urgency when word emerged that Defiance Industries was building a new division on [[Tharkad]] - [[Defiance Motors]] - to make up for Edasich's increasing shortfall in production.<ref name=HSTLCp143/><ref name=H:HSp137/>	+	When [[Defiance Industries]] began work on a factory to produce its own fusion engines, '''Edasich Motors''' suddenly found a powerful reason to upgrade its facilities and product quality. By shutting down an older plant on [[Tentra]], Edasich was able to use the machinery from that plant to upgrade the main factory on [[Edasich]] and construct a plant on [[Aur]] more quickly. It was undoubtedly the speed with which Edasich began production of advanced extra-light engines that convinced Defiance to continue to rely on Edasich Motors rather than expand their factory on [[Tharkad]].<ref name=HBHS137>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 136, "Edasich Motors Profile"</ref>
−	As with many technologically advanced companies, the discovery and decoding of the [[Helm Memory Core]] turned Edasich's fortunes around, the company sparing no expense in the construction of a new plant on [[Aur]] to see off Defiance's Tharkad expansion. By shutting down the older plant on Tentra, Edasich was able to use the machinery from that plant to upgrade the main factory on Edasich and construct a plant on Aur more quickly. It was undoubtedly the speed with which Edasich began production of advanced [[XL engine|extralight engine]]s that convinced Defiance to continue to rely on Edasich Motors and maintaining its vitality in the post–Succession Wars era.<ref name=H:HSp137/>	+	The Edasich Motors factory on Aur was shattered on the 27th of January [[3075]] when the [[Word of Blake]]'s [[50th Shadow Division]] raided the world.<ref name="JHS:Tp14">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 14, "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp53">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 53, "The Jihad In Review"</ref> The expansion of the Aur plant to produce [[RetroTech]] designs probably influenced the Blakist's priorities.<ref name=ola4>''Objectives: Lyran Alliance'', p. 4</ref>
