Alternately it could be a case of one writer not doing his homework. RPGs are notorious for this: I have the Battletech Technical Readout 3025 and it states that the first manufacture for a given model of Battlemech ('Griffin' IIRC) is the year 2077 or something like that - 700+ years prior to the end of the Star League, and about 500 or so years before the testing of the first Terran Hegemony battlemech as noted in all other sources.
