So, as it is a bit obscure I will give a hint.

The two "factions" are known as the "Clans" and the "Inner Sphere"
And a number of Computer Games share their name with this Role Playing Game

Current Question
While Dungeons and Dragons is the most popular game of its type, it is certainly not the only one.  This similar game (though using a different rule set) set beyond the year 3,000 is related to the Tabletop Strategy game "Battletech", and has many science fiction novels centered around it.  What is the name of the Roleplaying version of this game?

The French word ‘Hachis’ means minced meat, and it was meat from the wee creatures that was in the sheep’s stomach the Scotsman was boiling, so from then on the wee creatures were called Haggis, as were the food parcels.


warcraft?

The visual design of the earliest line of BattleMechs were taken from Macross and other anime, including many signature images.

"MechWarrior" is one of the 5 largest franchies in Science Fiction with a Role Playing Game, dozens of novels, and over a Dozen computer games.  It differs from its brother "Battletech" in that Battletech focuses on table-top strategy gaming, instead of indepth role-playing.  The rights to MechWarrior were sold by FASA to its current owner, "WizKids"
