Ghost Bears

Right this will be part tutorial with links to master unit list, but before we get there we need to get a list of units that are typical Ghost Bear units.

Now Battletech is weird because there are very few mechs that are faction specific, but in the world of Battletech some mechs are produced by or thought of as iconic for certain factions.

Want to know where to find thease? Thats right Sarna. On the landing page there is a section called Battlemechs, drop in there and there are links by faction, for example this is the Ghost Bear iconic units:

Now of course you need to make sure they are available in the era you are playing in. But for me it will Dasher, Vulture and Viper. The Dasher isnt listed as its a really common Omnimech in the clans, but it is a very Ghost Bear mech.

Right Master Unit List.

This has every unit in the game and has the alpha strike card for them. It also has an army building tool that allows you to print your army and will alter PV based on the skill level you set. This is your friend.

Here’s the army builder bit.

Cool huh?

Right so i have a faction, an Era and 3 mechs i want to include. Lets go to the search tool. The section is called units.

In the faction section i put ‘Clan Ghost Bear’ and ‘IS Clan General’, this gives me all the Ghost Bear specific and the general mechs used by Clans in the Inner Sphere.

Next I use the availability tab to chose ‘Clan Invasion’, giving me 493 units….

Its intimidating to start with, but as i decided on a plastics only army, that limited what i could take. Also a Striker Trinary should be fast, so i decided nothing with a speed slower than 8, 8 being the lowest speed a mech can have to qualify for a heavy striker star.

Things that i owned also limited it.
I had the following:
Mercury
Exterminator
Lancelot
Warhawk
Dasher

The first 3 are not omnimechs, however they are star league high end models that are extinct in the inner sphere and the clans use them so they went on the list.

All i had to do is choose and copy them over to the army builder and add them.

So what did we end up with?
Alpha Star:
Fenris
Warhawk
Loki
Vulture
Viper

Beta Star:
Vulture
Gargoyle
Exterminator
Lancelot
Fenris

Charlie Star:
Dasher
Dasher
Viper
Mercury
Uller

As for the Battle armour? its two stars of 5 battle armour points, all elementals with different load outs. 2 of those points are Headhunter points, So i will be cutting SRM packs off.
