Clan mechs in market?
Using popular mods yaml,yacm,mod option,ttrules and etc main mods. I've been looking everywhere for clan mechs in the market for hours. I've at least discovered a hero dire wolf. I'm way past the 3049 year. I've also increased rarity in markets to 5 with a mod. All mods appear to be working?

that's referring to clan weapons and internals. by default they only appear in the black market.

So the clans show up to invade and what? Sell the IS their tech to make a profit? While they continue to invade?
Disable market completely, is way more fun to build from battle salvage like a real merc company. There in no glory to be gained from a shop lol.

I would prefer to do a clan play through the game. The game is fun until the fatigue kicks in. There's a lot to say the IS mechs are boring, but I do appreciate them.
It would be nice if the mech combat was more personal and engaging. The game just throws mech after mech at you.
It would be more appropriate to be the clans, since the game throws canon fodder at you. Would be nice for some mod like feature to just have only clan mechs in the market, if the player chooses a clan invasion like play through.
Even like you suggested the game gives you some clan mechs then you beat other clans for their mechs. Except yet another clan mech mod only adds 1 faction for the clans, so I can't join and attack the only faction I'm interested in LOL!

Welp , that's coming:
https://steamhost.cn/app/2000890/MechWarrior_5_Clans/
But no sandbox mode, at least initially anyway. I don't mind the tech and aesthetics but the clans themselves read like they were written by a 12 year old for 12 year olds. their social structure is idiotic.

You are too generous. A real 12 year old would have done much better.

I'm aware, mw5 clans has no random generated missions kinda lame. I really don't care about the story. I'm sure I'll give it a play through. Depending on how it gets finished on release day.

Just checking - you know its a stand alone and not a DLC?

Yeah??? Could you imagine the black market with ac10, ac10bf, ac10rf, ac2, ac2bf, ac2rf, and etc including clan versions. Looking for specific ammo for those weapons? Thank god, mod options gets rid of tiers for weapons. JESUS!!!!

Would not so much be a market to buy these things so an in game economy would be weird. Would be more of a rank system that determines what you are entitled to requisition from clan stock.
Mechwarrior's are the top of the food chain, genetically bread for the job and then find their own pecking order like a pack of dogs so its not really a case of having to salvage and save like a merc or be rich and influential in a great house to acquire such things.

Making clans like MW5 sandbox would be kinda tricky and even a bit less rewarding in some ways I think. Story based missions does make more sense for the clans.

I think that adding Clan mechs and weapons to the game is a good idea. I understand that omni-pods are probably beyond the current game, but those can be ignored. I just want overall more weapon variety.
I know that adding ham mechs and weapon is always a bad idea and wrecks the game just like it did when it was introduced to table top

You likely have "Classic Mech Collection YAML" and not "Classic Mech Collection Lore YAML".
You'd need to Lore version to adhere to clan spawning rules. Else you get classic clan mechs spawning all over.

Sure, it would be cool. I would say variety with purpose. I used the new ac-2 rf and for how useless it was I personally want to thank everyone who mods this effing game to its full potential! The ppc-x if pretty cool though.
