Overview:
The Bogatyr first appeared on the gladiator circuits in the late 3190's. The
mech was clearly built using Clan technology, but no Clan has claimed ownership
of the design.
Capabilities:
The Bogatyr shares parts with many Clan mechs such as the Mad Dog, the
Stormcrow and the Kit Fox. Built around an Endo-Steel skeleton, protected by
10 tons of Ferro Fibrous armour the Bogatyr is well armed, but lacks the speed
of most Clan mechs, using a regular engine.
Though not an omnimech, the Bogatyr uses many such components which allows for
faster repair and maintenance, given that the Bogatyr is unusually prone to
breakdowns and system failures, which has lead to some to speculate that the
Bogatyr is not a native Clan design or at worst a failed design nobody wants to
be caught dead with. Most have been spotted in the Inner Sphere either with
House units or Mercenaries. No Clan, save the Nova Cats have been known to
field the Bogatyr. The Nova Cat Bogatyrs didn't last very long and soon
disappeared from their Touman.
The main weapon is a Gauss Rifle, augmented by a pair of ER Large Lasers. For
short range combat it mounts a pair of SRM6 launchers. The Gauss Rifle gained
a reputation for being unreliable often failing to fire. The Lasers may suffer
from overheating, though the SRM's have proven to be fairly reliable.
More problems are caused by some actuators, which are believed to be designed
for light mechs and have trouble keeping up with the mech's 65 ton frame.
Some units were able to acquire new Clan weapons and replaced the defective
ones, though many others were often forced to replace the weapons with Inner
Sphere ones.
Battle History:
The Bogatyr has proven to be an effective sniper and general trooper mech. It
has a good mix of weapons and armour allowing it to fight at almost any range.
The only drawback is the relatively slow speed, lacking jump jets it cannot
keep up with units with faster, more advanced engines.
Despite the poor quality of some of its parts, the lure of Clan technology has
proven irresistible to many units across the Inner Sphere.
If properly supported the Bogatyr is more than a match for most Inner Sphere
heavy mechs and a respectable foe against assault class mechs thanks to the
powerful Gauss Rifle.
Variants:
A common variant drops the unreliable Clan weapons in favour of an Inner Sphere
Gauss Rifle, an ER PPC and a pair of SRM4 launchers. This version has the
advantage of being much easier to maintain than the original.
