History[edit]
Schwerer Gustav[edit]
The Chief Technician of the Kell Hounds during the early 3070s, it was rumored the Schwerer Gustav FrankenMech was developed due to a bet Holstein had with Tooth of Ymir technical chief Sergi Ivanovich, that Ivanovich could not get the discarded wreak of a salvaged Wolf's Dragoons Annihilator operational in less than six months. The barroom wager gained a life of its own after Grand Duke Morgan Kell heard of the plans and provided Ivanovich access to a number of experimental weapons systems, which helped Ivanovich to complete his task within two months.
For winning the bet, beyond bragging rights and praise from his superiors, Ivanovich won six cases of Lachan County Ale from Holstein.[1]
Mangonel[edit]
Following the success of the Schwerer Gustav, Ivanovich and Holstein also cooperated on the design of the later MNL-3L Mangonel, which entered into production in 3078 at the behest of Clan Wolf-in-Exile Khan Phelan Kell.[2][3]
