 Ok, so lessons learned:

 

Copying and pasting the text file doesn't work really well. I get an error saying the Field must be less than 6000 characters.

 

Pasting the HTML to through the Source Code doesn't work real well either, it's also too long, although just barely apparently. Snipped the battleforce/alpha strike stuff off the bottom and got the results above. Not pretty really, but a start. Will continue to tinker.

Era: Clan Invasion
Tech Rating/Era Availability: E/X-X-E-A
Production Year: 3064
Cost: 9,145,890 C-Bills
Battle Value: 1,967

Chassis: Skobel Template 8 Endo-Steel
Power Plant: Pitban 240 Fusion Engine
Walking Speed: 32.4 km/h
Maximum Speed: 54.0 km/h
Jump Jets: CurtissJet 80
    Jump Capacity: 90 meters
Armor: Aldis Plate Standard Armor w/ CASE
Armament:
    2 Mydron Excel Ultra Type 10 Ultra AC/10s
    2 Diverse Optics ER Medium Lasers
    1 Guided Technologies 2nd Gen Streak SRM-4
    1 Diverse Optics ER Small Laser
    1  Improved C3 Computer
Manufacturer: Skobel MechWorks
    Primary Factory: Russia, Terra
Communications System: Skobel Wave VII Comm
Targeting and Tracking System: Falcon 15 Watcher

Overview:
When Skobel MechWorks finished the testing stage of the Vanquisher, their
design team moved quickly along to a new project. The Wordof Blake Precentor
Martial St. Jamais wanted an assault ’Mech designed to showcase the abilities
of both the Ultra 10 series of autocannon and the new C3i computer system. The
Skobelteam set to work immediately. They proposed design after design, none of
which met the Precentor Martial’s high standards. Finally, the team looked to
successful assault ’Mechs of the past for guidance. What they found was the
Rising Star, a ’Mech produced in low numbers during the first Star League and
discontinued because it did not fare well.

The Skobel designers saw immediately what the problem with the old design had
been—it had been outfitted with a targeting system that had later been proven
faulty. They saw a rebirth for the ’Mech with a new targeting system and a C3i
computer. Simulations proved them right. Replacing the old design’s standard
autocannon with two Ultra autocannon completed the change, and the Rising Star
walked off the production lines again, now known as the Legacy.


Capabilities:
Built around the original plans for the Rising Star, the Legacy inherited that
’Mech’s standard fusion engine and heavy armor protection. With CASE protecting
the delicate internal areas and the pilot from ammunition explosions, the
Legacy is a tough scrapper, able to withstand large amounts of damage and still
deliver its payload accurately. Though slow, with a maximum speed of just over
50 kilometers per hour, the assault ’Mech also boasts jump jets, giving it the
mobility needed to easily traverse mountainous terrain, forested areas or even
city streets.

The Legacy’s main weapons are its two Mydron Excel Ultra autocannon, which spew
out slugs at a prodigious rate and are remarkably accurate, thanks to targeting
information fed through the C3i system. Backing the twin autocannons up are
several lasers and a Streak SRM-4 system, though these have been found to be
insufficient if both autocannons jam. Should that occur, Legacy pilots are
instructed to retreat from the battlefield until the autocannons can be
cleared, rather than try to fight with only the backup weaponry.


Deployment:
Legacies have been assigned to every division of the Word of Blake Militia,
though First and Sixth Divisions have received the lion’s share of the new
’Mechs.


Variants:
A fire-support variant of the Legacy replaces the Ultra AC/10s with 2 Doombud
LRM-20 launchers, six total tons of ammunition, and two medium pulse lasers.
Roughly one out of every ten Legacies produced is this missile heavy version.

Nice! I'll try when I get home. Btw, replying while on mobile, text shows up as white on a white field, making it difficult to see what you're posting lol

And now it is black on a white field on a PC.

I wish the photos didn't require downloading....I'll see what I can find out about that.

BTW, I switched the theme of the forum back to the default while I work on the color issues.

Photos can be placed in the post itself.   I think I'm just having too much fun with the add attachment button.
