Description[edit]
The Pella was named for the birthplace of Alexander the Great. It was originally developed for reconnaissance and superiority and was purpose-built to use its active probe for sniffing out Dark Caste 'Mechs hidden in Homer's wastelands. Pellas could also be deployed for air superiority against similar-massed craft or bombers, as their lasers and autocannon could attack threats from range.[2]
Weapons and Equipment[edit]
The Pella is equipped with one LB 5-X AC and two ER large lasers, supported by a Beagle active probe.[2]
