Overview:
Ostmann Industries never fully recovered from the lack of interest in  the
Ostwar by the SLDF, despite their high successful Ostscout and Oststol.  the
Ostmann was thier last attempt to pull a sales coup by overthrowing the
Whitworth as the SLDFs preferred light Missile Carrier.

the Ostmann itself is a capable machine, using the same LRM 10 racks mounted on
the venerable Dervish mech, alongside Ostmann Industries own Fuersturm A and B
Model lasers.  the Ostmann's key asset however was the 315 XL engine which
allowed the mech to beat the overland speed of the SLDF's Phoenix Hawk,
allowing it to get to position to use it's missiles despite the lack of jump
jets

that engine proved to be the Ostmann's undoing, as no other known machine used
it.  the 315 engine lived on however some centuries later when used by the Word
of Blake and Free Worlds League for upgraded Ostscouts and Bloodhoud mechs

It's a Hellspawn that doesn't jump, basically, and dumbed down on the weapons loadout. Otherwise a solide design.
