The problem with LosTech is, that the game isn't made for LosTech. Why take an ER PPC if you can safely shoot a normal PPC from one end to the other on the map - minimum range is pointless either way. Same with ER Large Lasers. They produce tremendous amounts of heat for nothing but range which is pointless in this game.

Large Pulse Lasers only deal 5 damage more than Large Lasers and produce way more heat and need more tonnage.

The Gauss looks cool and has a longer range than the AC10.

The only real different stuff would be ultra autocannons and LB-X, but the Devs already mentioned that an LB-X without ammo switching is pointless (and that's one reason why we have the AS7-D-HT instead of the canon AS7-D-H Atlas II which has an LB-10X instead of the AC20 - the other being a different layout of the hardpoints). Also Double Heat Sinks!

You can very, very rarely find them (in battle potentially, or in the shop) in systems with Star League remnants. Don't rely on finding one. It's Lostech.

LosTech is a general term. This game was only released a couple weeks ago by this point. It's okay if no one knows anything about the secrets yet, chief. :P

I believe this is false as recent statements from devs stated that they'd add ways in updates or DLC to get lostech outside of the storyline.

Are there +++ Gauss? I imagine you can solo any mission if there are.

You can not find it in stores. You can get it as extremely rare salvage for 5 skull missions though. There are no + versions of any of the SLDF tech.

You get one, for sure, in a story mission

If you want to have some fun and challenge, You guys just need 1 Gauss, 1 is ENOUGH for the game.
Because I already use the mods, it's help you buy Gauss in shop (yep with very expensive price). But when you have more than 1 Gauss in your team. The game is imbalance, and very easy to win. You just need to aim for the Leg. Very easy kill.
Not recommed for its.

I believe lostech will start appearing on the market once in 25 in-universe years. Like around 3050 or so. Although you might be able to salvage some sooner as they'll start appearing on some House units as early as 3039.

Too bad we're stuck in 3025 no matter how many notional "days" and "months" pass until HBS sees fit to move the timeline forward.

Victor Steiner-Davion was 104 before he die, Kai Allard-Liao was 83 years old both fight with 80+ in there Battle Mechs, so no need to retire, u are only older, better, harder :)
