Description[edit]
The Omni-Corvis is an early prototype of OmniMech technology that was developed by Clan Hell's Horses. Based on the Corvis BattleMech, it carries the modular systems first introduced in the Mercury to the logical extreme. After Clan Ghost Bear took control of Tokasha MechWorks in 2921 they released the plans for the Omni-Corvis on the Chatterweb to punish the Horses for the death of Khan Kilbourne Jorgensson. The only Clan to take advantage of the design was Clan Snow Raven, who used the plans to create the Stormcrow.[2]
Weapons and Equipment[edit]
The default configuration is inspired by the Corvis. A UAC/10 with four tons of ammunition is supported by an ER large laser and an ER medium laser. Two additional pod-mounted double heat sinks are installed as well. This allows the Omni-Corvis to operate in the same medium range brackets that Corvis pilots are used to.
Alternate Configurations[edit]
- Alternate Configuration A
- For close combat, the A configuration has six medium pulse lasers; two in each arm and two in the center torso. A Streak SRM-6 and one ton of ammunition is mounted in each side torso. A small pulse laser is mounted in the head for anti-infantry work. BV (2.0) = 1,977[1]
- Alternate Configuration B
- A long range fire support model, the B configuration has an LRM-20 and three tons of ammunition in each arm. These are supported by a right torso Narc missile beacon with two tons of ammunition. A pair of machine guns with a half-ton of ammunition are carried in the left torso. BV (2.0) = 1,640[1]
