This is now where we go into pure headcanon/fanon. >interrupting this retardation momentarily You want to concentrate your PWS force to maximise victory.Ī typical formation therefore might be 2-3 PWSs, 1-2 Assault DSs and 1-2 CVs. And since PWSs are expensive, other assault dropships like Clan Noruffs or IS Overlord-A3s have to sub in, though not too many as it would dilute firepower. The Clans like to use 5 as always.īut since most PWSs don't carry ASFs, usually a CV dropship or two are included. Most factions tend to use PWSs/assault DSs in groups of 3 to 6, corresponding naturally with the collars of an Invader or Star Lord. We can estimate that as at 3078 they had ~20 A/Vs dedicated as Leviathan escorts, and a couple more escorting other dropship transports. Similarly, the Bears built ~27 Aesirs/Vanirs from 3077 to 3081.

The Crusader Wolves managed to build 'even more' during that time thanks to their richer resource base, and sold a couple to the Sharks too. In 2 years the Exiled Wolves built about 4 to 6 Isegrims. Snow Ravens have Titan Monitors, for example.īoth Wolves built the Isegrim, and in DA era the Sharkfoxes built the Nagasawa which of course they sell to all Clans >Just wondering and why did the Clans other than the Burrs never get into them?ī) Pocket WarShips are a new thing, and the writing focus wasn't on the Clans when they were developed Pocket WarShips were all about the Jihad, and the only Clan with a meaningful role in the Jihad were the BearsĬ) Other Clans do have them. However, we don't know whether these are just paper formations, and we don't know what proportion of Pocket WarShip production these formations would represent. As a *non-canon* example, something like: 'a Fox is accompanied by the standard escort group of a Leopard CV, a Conquistador Blockade Runner, and 2 Overlord A3'. There's a couple of places (no, I don't remember specifics offhand) where nominal formations are discussed. We know that they're less common than cargo DropShips, and we know that they're less common then Mech-carrying DropShips, all simply due to the dint of being 'new', whereas there's like 500 years of non-Pocket WarShip production set against them. Seriously, though, we don't have the data to say for certain. Insufficient data, please try again later. >What are the numbers of Pocket Warships in the IS as of now? More goodies!
