Reasons for new...

...'mechs getting invented in Battletech (incomplete list):

We invented a new gun and it doesn't actually fit on anything we currently have, so we need a new 'mech to go with it.

Situation: there are five 'mechs competing to cover a certain role. "Let's make a 'mech dedicated to perfectly covering that role!" Situation: there are six 'mechs competing to cover a certain role.

Oh boy, we (traded for/scavenged/were conquered but got access to/simply stole/etc.) Clan tech, let's see what we can make with this stuff!

Hey, you know [attempted horrible prototype 'mech]? Let's make that, but better this time.

Hey, you know [perfectly functional 'mech made by another company]? We could totally [add/subtract] like, a quarter-ton of armor, change up the name, bam, our own new 'mech.

We've got a war on our hands, a tractor factory, several thousand tons of metal for prototypes and a dream.

We are running low on our stock of [good 'mech], let's build something that's about roughly kind of decent enough to pad out the numbers.

My uncle works for [state army] and he said I can build all the BattleMechs I want, so there.

We made a Superheavy 'mech! A Size 5! A titan of war! Yes it's very practical and actually worth the trouble it takes to deploy it instead of just about twelve regular-sized 'mechs, really, I pinky promise it :)

You see Perry the Platypus, when I was a young boy in Gimmelshtump, the infantrymen would always bully me. Every day they launched their little rockets at me and stole my lunch money and said, "oh, there goes the 'mechjock, there goes the tin can brigade!" And when I stomped on them they would make the least satisfying sounds- you know how, like, with leaves, you always except a very nice sort of crunch but sometimes it's just like a- a- [platypus sound] -yes, exactly, words right out of my mouth! Anyways, it was like that. Now, with my Infantry Obliteratinator 3,151,000, it is I, Perry the Platypus, who will bully every infantryman in the pan-Successor-State Area!
