Waffengefährten ("Brothers-In-Arms"), by Arous Brocken, is the 24th in the line of German-language Classic BattleTech Novels that Ulisses Spiele took over from FanPro and continued. As the fifth part of the Bear Cycle, it continues the story of MechWarrior George Bear from the previous novel, Erster Kontrakt.

Canonicity

Written in German and exclusively published in that language so far, Waffengefährten does not meet the current criteria for Canon in the BattleTech universe. As an official product published under a valid license, it should be regarded as apocryphal.

From the back cover (translated from German)

Enemy spies, corrupt officers and terrorists cause more than enough trouble in the Chaos March to provide sufficient work for George Bear and his small unit. However, both clients and allies act anything but benevolent towards a newcomer to the business. Only George's tactical abilities and his field agents can save the unit from a deadly setback.

An industrial magnate's offer to defend him and his factories against pirates seems ideal for the young unit to get used to each other and prove themselves in battle. But for yet another time the mission turns into a stress test for the Biting Bear's Bashes and for their commander...
