MWO Style Owens OW-1 for BattleTech

thingiverse

<b>Changelog:</b> Removed all other variants of the file Replaced primary file with fixed and printable STL. This is my attempt at modernizing the Owens OW-1 for the BattleTech Tabletop game. I used assets ripped from Pirahna Games Studio's MechWarrior: Online game, rearranged them to resemble an Owens, and placed it on a Hex Base so that it would be compatible with the tabletop. I haven't printed this yet; more images will come once I have the chance, but in theory, it should work without significant issues. The Owens is designed as an OmniMech upgrade of the Jenner BattleMech. Its intended role is as a cavalry 'Mech that can move along enemy lines and designate targets for bombardment with Arrow IV artillery attacks. The Owens serves as a strong spotting unit for artillery and Semi-Guided LRMs, as well as a point 'Mech for C3 lances with its permanently mounted TAG laser designator and C3 Slave unit. The Owens is also equipped with a Beagle Active Probe that allows the 'Mech to detect hidden enemy units. With a top speed of 129.6 km/h and seven tons of armor, the Owens is a valuable asset in urban and dense woods or jungle environments where it can find an enemy unit, designate it for an artillery strike, and then leave the area at high speeds. The primary configuration of the Owens aims to stay at stand-off ranges when possible using its two LRM-5 launchers. If forced into close-range combat, the Owens can bring its Medium Laser and two Small Lasers to bear.
