==Overview==
 
==Overview==
Edasich Motors was formed after the [[House Edasich|Edasich family]] took over the operation of two major fusion engine factories, a [[Vlar Industries]] production plant on Edasich and a [[Pitban Power Systems]] line on [[Kirkcaldy]]'s moon of Tentra, following the collapse of the [[Star League]] in [[2784]]. During the [[Succession Wars]] the company's story was a familiar one, its products increasingly vital during the war torn era to power [[Defiance Industries]] famous ''[[Zeus]]'' and [[Atlas (BattleMech)|''Atlas'']] [[BattleMech]]s, but its production volumes steadily dropping to one-fifth their former rate as jury-rigging replaced now [[LosTech]] parts. Unable to repair their existing factories, Duke Martin Edasich considered building a new fresh factory on a more peaceful interior world, a project that received new urgency when word emerged that Defiance Industries was building a new division on [[Tharkad]] - [[Defiance Motors]] - to make up for Edasich's increasing shortfall in production.<ref name=HSTLCp143/><ref name=H:HSp137/>

As with many technologically advanced companies, the discovery and decoding of the [[Helm Memory Core]] turned Edasich's fortunes around, the company sparing no expense in the construction of a new plant on [[Aur]] to see off Defiance's Tharkad expansion. By shutting down the older plant on Tentra, Edasich was able to use the machinery from that plant to upgrade the main factory on Edasich and construct a plant on Aur more quickly. It was undoubtedly the speed with which Edasich began production of advanced [[XL engine|extralight engine]]s that convinced Defiance to continue to rely on Edasich Motors and maintaining its vitality in the post–Succession Wars era.<ref name=H:HSp137/>
