Designer Notes
The first result of cooperation between industrial giant Northco and Kenema's Shaian Mechanics, the Grizzly heavy fire support Gear has been a maintstay of the Northern armies since its introduction in the TN 1870s. Designed to replace the Bear, the Grizzly brought a combination of raw firepower and thick armor to the battlefield. the basic armament of the Grizzly was generally based on that of the Bear featuring a Riley M225 heavy autocannon as its main direct fire weaponry, supplemented by twin GH-8 rocket pods. In addition to the unguided rockets, indirect fire capabilities are provided by a TD-76 mortar unit, capable of lobbing guided high-explosive shells up to two kilometers. This long range guided weaponry makes the Grizzly extremely dangerous when paired with a forward observing unit using a laser designator -- such as a Cheetah or Ferret scout/recon Gear. The Grizzly's S-V2200Z engine was a distinctive improvement over the Bear's troublesom S-V790T and managed a mild speed improvement, despite the heavier armor. The Grizzly remains slow and lumbering compared to trooper and scout Gears and even to motorized infantry. To provide point defense, the Grizzly was equipped with a GU-10 gatling machinegun.
