Overview:
Named for the heroic warriors of Slavic myth and legend who were akin to European
knight-errants, Clan Hell’s Horses developed the Bogatyr to give their forces a capable,
home-grown medium-weight skirmisher and line fighter. Based on the Crimson Langur jointly
engineered by Clan Blood Spirit and Clan Fire Mandrill, this new machine differs from its
predecessor in several key features.
Capabilities:
Although based on the Crimson Langur, the Bogatyr is not the same OmeniMech. The Clan
scientists assigned to the project elected to decrease the power rating of the fusion core,
providing less ground speed to the design, but freeing up significant mass for other
improvements. To make up for the decrease, they did choose to provide the unit with a MASC
system to provide bursts of speed when needed. They also provided an armored skin with an
effective protection rating equal to that on the original design, but with less mass cost
due to being ferro-fibrous materials. This does limit the ability to mount certain items in
certain locations, but more than makes up for itself when considering the overall payload
increase. These changes increase the payload by 40% to 21 tons. The comm system is just as
effective as that of the parent design, and the machine is just as easy to repair, but the
leg actuators are not as well guarded. The engineers instead chose to make the design
overall less maintenance intensive (has the Easy to Maintain, Improved Communications and
Rugged (1) quirks).
Developed as a sniper/anti-air configuration, Alternate Configuration G has been equipped
with a small model hyper-assault Gauss rifle with 3 tons of ammunition, an extended range
PPC and a pair of anti-personnel Gauss rifles that share a ton of ammunition. All weapons
are split between the arms, providing the widest arc of fire possible. As the arms lack
lower arm and hand actuators, they can be easily flipped to the machine’s rear arc should
enemies slip behind it. The great mass of these weapons and their ammunition means that no
extra mass was available to add jump jets or a supercharger, leaving this as one of the
least mobile options of this design.
Deployment:
The Bogatyr is slowing being deployed to all front line forces in Clan Hell’s Horses, with
several ristars fielding those first off the production lines. Most have thus far been sent
to Cavalry units and similar formations that prize mobility.
