First, Learn to spell. Second, Clan kicks ass, 75 men machine gunning their way through a small school that only has about 10 or 12 competent fighters, just imagine the carnage.

I actually think they could beat the Federation too, and maybe (just maybe) the Earthers from B5

The anti technology field would shutdown all the mecha, do Battletech crews carry side arms?

Yes, the needler pistol is the most common one, it's basically a mini shotgun using "plastic" instead of pellets.

Well, the elementals equipment is all going to go tits up as soon as they enter the Hogwarts grounds (assuming they can find it), so they are going to have to get out and fight with their fists or with knives or something. Unfortunately, outside of their armor, they can be very easily beaten by various spells that even most of the children can do at Hogwarts.

IIRC it uses a solid block of plastic as its ammo and shreds it: that would get shut down by this "anti-technology field."

Well, I think that most of the students there would have trouble taking out one of their trolls, now if you take 75 big, fast, intelligent trolls I think theyll have a lot more trouble. Whats worse is a that the kids first reaction will probably be is to run exactly to their teachers, and this will lead to the clanners getting to them quicker, and this would lead to one suprised teacher about to be ripped apart by five (a point smart trolls. Repeat and soon you have a almost leaderless, massacred, Hogwarts...

Though in the end Dumbledore could probably pull something out of his ass, and save the day.

What good is an elemental when it's a teapot? -Minerva.
Or unconcious from a poison cloud? -Snape
Under attack from the flora which has just been enlarged? - Sprout
And as for care of magical creatures, panimmunity won't work. - Hagrid

In any event elementals themselves are products of high-tech breeding. This leaves you with 75 overlarge thugs. They are eaten, poisoned, crushed, charmed and transmogrified into kitchenware. The students are not even woken (except for Fred and George who are already up and catch the lone surviving elemental with something or other).

No good, But what good are the other four bearing down on her? OH WAIT! Those are good!
Or unconcious from a poison cloud? -Snape
I doubt he'd release poison anywhere in a school, after all children are rather susceptible to it, and Elementals are big BEEFY things, you'd need a whole lot of poison to take one of them down.
Under attack from the flora which has just been enlarged? - Sprout
Funny thing is that FLora doesn't move, so the Elementals would have to walk into the Greenhouses for this to happen to them, and since they train all their lives to fight and for tactics I doubt they'd be stupid enough to do that.
And as for care of magical creatures, panimmunity won't work. - Hagrid
Difference between Hagrid and an Elemental- Not much. In fact I doubt that most of the animals would even be willing to help the Proffesors in ordinary circumstances, let alone put their life on the line to help save their castle.

Suppose the Elementals attack during the day? students panic, pandamonium rains, and the proffesors need to calm the students and dispatch of the elementals, who have numbers against the proffesors on their side, at the same time.

Given what normally happens during a year at that school, I'ld be amazed if anyone noticed.

If it's a simple detonator, it should still function. The 'anti-tech' field seems to apply to more advanced electronics that can't take a lot of external interference.

Clanners are bred for battle from birth. Elementals geneticaly engineered to be extremely powerful humans. They would kill any normal humans in an unarmed fight.

If an "anti-tech field" shuts down ordinary chemical reactions and Newtonian physics, even simple things like lighting a match or throwing and catching a baseball would be impossible. It must be more of an EMP-like effect.

Since Fred and George have left Hogwarts (assuming your using the must up to date time) they wont be much use. However, if they've left behind some of there "pranks" there could be some problems. (eg. instant swamp).

Also, is Fluffy (Cereberus) still at Hogwarts?

Actually, it's more like a plot-device field that arbitrarily shuts down technology based on the whim of the writer when she doesn't want some stuff in Hogwarts. I wouldn't try to make sense of it, since it's not terribly consistant. After all, mechanical watchs and matches work inside Hogwarts, but a gun doesn't, even though the gun only uses simple mechanics and chemical reactions.

Well, a kid having his head pulled of by an elementals bare hands might not be noticed, but when his body is thrown at the other kids I think they may notice...
