Thank you Cory Zimmerman for the cover scan. Clan MK1 Omnis - Uploaded 6-26-2003 Thank you Bowtie Bob for giving me these 'Mechs. Reportedly, these are the original versions of the Clan Omnis that were released before the 3050 TRO back when the Clans were being introduced. They are more powerful in most instances then the final versions and in many cases fit the earlier fiction better.

TRO 3067 AeroSpace Fighters unverified lately but hopefully correct. 3075 Updated 01/24/2011 3085 Updated 05/12/2011 3085 SE Uploaded 01/05/2012 XTROs Uploaded 07/28/2011 Prototypes Updated 10/04/2011 3145 Updated 12/16/2013 TRO 3075 designs, as close as possible to the stats in the TRO itself, verified by myself. HMA can't do small cockpits so the Spectrals have one less ton of fuel than they are supposed to. Note that the 3026R files were simply copied over so if there are changes between the TROs I may have missed them. :) TRO 3085 and Supplemental designs, as close as possible to the stats in the TRO itself, verified by myself. Two designs are overweight so I had to cut fuel to make them work. Also since HMA doesn't allow cap weapons on DropShips all of the subcap weapons are made as cap missiles for the DropShips. Snake Eyes has provided the following TRO files: TRO 3085 SE to bring us the variants as well, XTROs, TRO Prototypes, TRO 3145 DropShips and JumpShips - Uploaded 6/24/2008 Built off the files created for the 3057R project that Khan Joseph Mallan helped me with, these are some of the designs from DropShips and JumpShips that were not included, or not accurated included, in TRO 3057 or TRO 3057R.
