Description

A powerful medium scout and recon 'Mech, the Ice Ferret was regarded as something of a foreign concept when it was first encountered by Inner Sphere forces. The Fenris (as they called it) is a very capable medium scout 'Mech because it is an OmniMech and can be reconfigured to serve in strike and fire support roles. The Ice Ferret is built on a lightweight Endo Steel chassis that saves weight and is powered by a massive 360 XL engine that gives the Ice Ferret a top speed of 129.6 km/h and also accounts for one third of the 'Mechs total weight. The Ice Ferret has twelve double heat sinks mounted on the chassis and is protected by seven and a half tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor, giving the 'Mech almost the maximum amount of armor protection for its weight.

Armament

In its primary configuration, the Ice Ferret is capable of acting in a variety of roles. The Ice Ferret carries an Active Probe allowing the 'Mech to detect hidden enemy units. For close combat, the Ice Ferret prime has a Streak SRM-2 launcher and an ER Small Laser. For long range engagements, the 'Mech is armed with a single ER PPC, giving it excellent long range hitting power for its size.

Alternate Configurations

  • Alt. Config. A - The A configuration carries a single LB-X Autocannon/2 for its excellent long range sniping capabilities. This is backed up by two ER Medium Lasers for close combat capabilities and a single Anti-Missile System for added defense against missile weapons. BV (1.0) = 1,210, BV (2.0) = 1,323
  • Alt. Config. B - The Ice Ferret B has an ER Large Laser as its only long-range weapon. For close combat, the B configuration carries an SRM-4 and an SRM-6 launcher as well as a highly accurate Small Pulse Laser. BV (1.0) = 1,308, BV (2.0) = 1,461
  • Alt. Config. C - A fire support configuration of the Ice Ferret, the C configuration has a trio of LRM-5 launchers, each linked to an Artemis IV fire control system for increased missile accuracy. For close range defense, the 'Mech has a single ER Small Laser. BV (1.0) = 1,057, BV (2.0) = 1,211
  • Alt. Config. D - Configured for work as a harasser, the D configuration is armed with a simple arsenal of four highly accurate Medium Pulse Lasers and an Anti-Missile System for added defense from missile carrying enemies. BV (1.0) = 1,541, BV (2.0) = 1,653
  • Alt. Config. E - The E configuration of the Ice Ferret carries as its primary weapon an ATM-9 launcher, which is capable of firing specialized ammunition for short, medium, and long ranges. Backing this up for close combat, is an ER Medium Laser and an ER Small Laser. BV (1.0) = 1,329, BV (2.0) = 1,483
  • Alt. Config. H - Capable of engaging an enemy at a variety of ranges, the Ice Ferret H has an ER Large Laser for long range combat. For short ranges, the 'Mech has two Heavy Medium Lasers and a single SRM-6 launcher. BV (1.0) = 1,342, BV (2.0) = 1,619
