* IIRC, in the novel "I am Jade Falcon," just prior to the Refusal War with Clan Wolf, Star Commander Joanna of the Falcon Guards fought a trial of grievance among the ruins of Sudeten's BattleMech factory. If the Falcons have not rebuilt the facility by 3057, then it is likely still in ruins in 3062. OR states that the former Star League 'Mech plant has "some value to the Jade Falcons," but this is likely attributable more to the reverence the Clans hold for relics of the old Star League than to any affinity they might have for decrepit old 'Mech designs such as the Thunderbolt or Warhammer.

* It is a bit of an irony that the Jade Falcons of all clans would have captured a fully self- sufficient vehicle production factility. All equipment required for the manufacture of these vehicles are made on-site, and no importations are necessary. Clan Jade Falcon, of course, has the lowest regard for combat vehicles of all the Clans, and so is likely to have shut down this factory. Another tidbit that I found amusing is that it was the loss of this very Demolisher plant that prompted the FS and LA to develop the superior Typhoon and Demolisher II tanks.

* Clan Jade Falcon is once again in control of the contested world of Twycross, with its assault-class BattleMech manufacturing facility. The Falcon warriors who won this prize have likely realized great glory and satisfaction in capturing it from their Steel Viper rivals. This is in stark contrast to their forbears a decade ago, who siezed and then lost the world to mere Inner Sphere barbarians. Whether these production facilities have been upgraded or if they are even operational at all is yet unknown.
