State owned locomotive and vehicle manufacturers, established in 1723 AN in order to reduce reliance upon chronically overburdened production lines of the Mishalan Arsenal and the Stonetree Engineering Group. Company formation consisted of nationalisation of suitable manufacturing enterprises, particularly workshops, garages and mechanical repair yards, formerly operating as liveried companies affiliated to the Guild of Artificers, within the realm of the Sovereign Confederation and the impressment of said entities' workforces with a view to their concentration at a central site in Cortallia. It should be noted that the guild took this intervention ill and made a hitherto unprecedented formal complaint to the High Presidium of the Benacian Union regarding the expropriation of a number of its members. The matter was presented to the Chamber of Guilds and Corporations for the negotiation of a settlement.
The demands placed upon the newly formed company, namely of producing 2,330+ tanks per year for six years, were to prove a major challenge, itself something of an understatement, as the acquisition of the requisite machine-tools and the establishment of a number of satellite production facilities throughout the Sovereign Confederation would demand millions of Benacian sovereigns and thousands of manhours in order to map out the path towards even the first semblance of a solution.
