Overview:
As low volume producers of the Night Gyr, both Clan Burrock and Clan Cloud Cobra
thought it would be best to work together on developing new configurations for the
OmniMech. As the two clans have been working together for decades in the unending
struggle to bring the Dark Caste to heel. Using a repair and refit facility on Tanis to
assemble and test any of the new configurations. The combined technical staffs spent
weeks developing multiple possible configurations A total of 35 distinct designs were
tested and the list was whittled down to the nine standarized versions and the two
unique customs developed by the two Star Captains in charge of the field testing.
Prime: The Prime is a joint creation of the Burrock and Clan scientists and goes
to an all energy-based weaponry. The ER PPCs were retained along with two of
the three medium pulse lasers. To make way for the new loadout, the troublesome
Ultra autocannon has been removed and a brace of large pulse lasers were
mounted along with a small pulse laser and an extra heat sink.Heat management
is still a major concern, but an experienced should be able to use his weapon
efficiently.
Config A: Based on the original Jade Falcon version, the much maigned Utra
autocannon has been replaced by an LB-X autocannon of the same size. A second
large pulse laser has replaced one of the Streak launchers and two of the
medium pulsers. An ER medium laser has also been added.
Config B: Straight from the miinds of the Burrock scientist on the team, this
new config retains the twinned Gauss rifles and adds three tons of ammunition.
The light autocannons have been stripped away and have been replaced by array
of medium lasers and an electronic warfare package that is used best aginst
their enemies in the Dark Caste.
Config C: This new C Config is a product of the Cloud Cobra scientist and again
strips away the Ultra Autocannons and replaces with two LB 5-X autocannons. The
ER large lasers have been retained along with the Targetting Computer. The two
ER medium lasers have been replaced by a medium pulser and two ER small lasers.
An ECM suite has also been added. This C is a dedicated direct long-range
support and anti-aircraft specialist.
Config D: TWo of the LRM20 launchers have been revoed and have been replaced by
two Streak launchers and a large pulse laser. The two remaining launchers now
have a total of six tons of ammunition for sustained operations. An ECM suite
and an additonal heat sink have also been installed.
Config E: This new config is the generic trooper version of the Night Gyr and
features an ER PPC and an LB 10-X autocannonas its primary weapons. Secondary
weapons include an LRM15, a Streak SRM6 and an array of pulse lasers. For added
protection an anti-missile system has also been mounted. Sixteen double heat
sinks help handle the heat.
Config F: Based on the Gargoyle Prime, an Omni which will be rplaced by the
Night Gyr, it adds two more Streak SRM6 launchers and replaces the ER small
laser wit a pair of medium pulse lasers.
Config G: Dubbed the Shredder by Star Captain Marghar, two LB-X autocannons are
mounted and are backed up by a pair of ER medium lasers and a pair of Artemis
IV-equipped missile launchers.
Config H: A variation of the new Config C that see the lasers upgraded to large
pulsers while the LB 5-Xs have been downgraded to LB 2-Xs. Two Streak SRM6s
have been added. To make room for them the targeting computer has been removed.
An Er medium laser and five double heat sinks have been mounted as well.
Sylvester Marghar Custom: Star Captain Marghar is a ristar in Clan Burrock and he
Trialed for the position of commander of the binary that would be testing the new
configurations for the Night Gyr that are being co-developed with a design team from
Clan Cloud Cobra. The testing took place on the world of Tanis where the two clans
shared the world. Sylvester enjoyed fielding all of the various configurations for the
Night Gyr, but found that none of the quite suited his desired combat style. He prefers
engaging the enemy from long range so opted for mounting an ER PPC and a Gauss rifle
and backed up by an LB 5-X autocannon. As a combat veteran of fighting the bandits of
the Dark Caste, he's also mounted assorted anti-infantry weaponry in the form of small
pulse lasers, a lfamer and an active probe. To counter the missiles favored by the bandits
an anti-missle system. For added offensive firepower a medium pulse laser is also carried.
Parvati Chan Custom: Unlike her Burrock confederate, Star Captain Chan's career is on the
down swing. At 35 years of age many in her Clan's touman believe that she be relegated to
solahma status and assigned to a secondline cluster. While the testing binary is not considered
a secondline unit, Parvati believes that this may be the first step to relegation. During the test-
ing phase fell in love with new C config but felt that it lacked punch. She solved this issue by
downsiizng the LRM20s to LRM15s and mounting them in the torso. For the bigger punch, she
had the techs install an LB 10-X and backed it up with a quintet of medium pulse lasers.
