Description

Considered a lost mech for centuries, the Osprey in truth was not completely gone after the fall of the Star League. In addition to those Ospreys in the hands of the Clans and ComStar, a few downgraded Ospreys, designated the OSP-05, remained in service throughout the Inner Sphere. The OSP-05 uses purely Succession Wars level technology. Gone is the Endo-Steel, XL Engine, and Gauss Rifle, in its place is a standard structure, standard engine, and an Autocannon/5 with two tons of ammo. The CASE and DHS are also gone, replaced by 10 standard heat sinks and a Small Laser. The OSP-05 was slowly phased out of service, though a few can still be found floating about.

Description

Designed by Hollis Incorporated to fulfill a Star League Defense Force contract for a mobile, medium-weight fire support unit, when Blue Shot Weapons' Lynx design won the bid the Osprey was relegated to a limited contract for the SLDF's Royal units in an urban defense role. It would later become almost entirely extinct, with a downgraded version being produced in a limited capacity during the Succession Wars. The OSP-15 is the SLDF Royal original loadout, armed with a Gauss Rifle, LRM-10, and three Medium Lasers and built on an Endo-Steel frame with an XL engine for power. 4 jump jets keep it mobile in its urban environment.

Description

Thought extinct until the unveiling of the Com Guards in the 3030s, the Osprey would find a new lease on life with the Terran Hegemony Armed Forces after that realm's rebirth in 3036. The OSP-35 is an experimental variant that swaps all the weaponry for a different warload. A MML-5 and twin ER Medium Lasers provide no-frills firepower but the star of the show is the HISC Hyper Laser in the right torso. This mammoth weapon is capable of tremendous damage at extreme ranges and can decimate anything the Osprey can see. A 275-rated XL engine, five jump jets, Endo-Steel frame, and Light Ferro-Fibrous armor round out the design.

Description

Weirdly, this Osprey seems to have been taken straight from the front lines against the Clans and morphed into something very different back at home in the arenas of the gameworld, Solaris VII. Armed with Clan-grade SRM-6s and Heavy Medium Lasers, Nap Time would have stood out on that aspect alone but the diabolical addition of a NAIS-crafted Mech Taser gave the mech its signature moniker. It doesn't hurt that the pilot often shouts 'Time for your dirtnap!' after connecting with the taser. The crowds love it though, leading to Nap Time having quite a following.
