================================================================================================
Overview:
The OGN-1X Ostgun is a design conceived for the SLDF Gunslinger Program by Kong Interstellar
Corporation as a BattleMech capable of ending a duel quickly. With the advent of the Amaris
Civil War it never got past the pre-production stage and ended up forgotten in an R&D file.
In 3022 Oonthrax Stables on Solaris VII somehow ended up in possession of the specifications
for the Ostgun and proceeded to build the design based on a salvaged Ostsol wreck. The 'Mech
was completed in 3024 and given to a Stable darling, Jaxon Oonthrax.
Capabilities:
The OGN-1X Ostgun is another 60 ton walker/pod 'Mech like the Ostroc and the Ostsol, with
the same movement profile, but much heavier armor and a completely different weapon loadout.
It also utilizes a very unconventional ammo feed mechanism, which may be why the design
ended up forgotten.
Deployment:
The OGN-1X Ostgun, named "Polyphemus" by its pilot Jaxon Oonthrax, has only been deployed
once in a Class Four Charity Match.
Variants:
None. The OGN-1X Ostgun has the following Design Quirks: Ammunition Feed Problem (CT),
Battle Fists*, Cowl, Exposed Weapon Linkage (AC/20), Extended Torso Twist, Jettison-Capable
Weapon (AC/20)*, Unbalanced. *If the AC/20 is jettisoned, the 'Mech regains Right Lower Arm
and Hand Actuators and Right Battle Fist.
Notable MechWarriors:
Jaxon Oonthrax was a scion of a minor noble House that owned one of the oldest Stables on
Solaris VII.
