Description
The first of the famous Ost family of mechs, the Ostwar is the forgotten scion of that line. The Ostwar-2M has a host of primitive technologies throughout its design such as its primitive cockpit, engine, and armor. Its primary weapon is a LRM-20, which is backed up at close-ranges by 2 Medium Lasers and 2 SRM-4s in its famous missile pod hands. Most of the Ostwar-2Ms were lost to the mists of history during the Succession Wars, but a few can still be found in the Periphery.

Description
An updated version of the primitive Ostwar developed in 2620, this variant carries 12 tons of standard BattleMech armor and a modern cockpit. The chassis has been upgraded to use Endo Steel, while an XL Engine increases the Ostwar's ground speed to 84 kmh. Eighteen double heat sinks dissipate the heat from three ER Large Lasers and twin SRM-6 launchers.

Description
A rare variant of the Ostwar, the -2N was an update of the Primitive Ostwar-2M with basic Star League technology to bring it up to spec with other mechs of its time. The weaponry on the -2N is mostly the same as the -2M except that the SRM-4s have been upgraded to SRM-6s. Otherwise it keeps the LRM-20 and the Medium Lasers. The -2N is also somewhat faster, better armored, and has better heat control than the -2M. Not many -2Ns were made before production of the Ostwar ended during the Star League era.

Description
During the run-up to the FedCom Civil War, a wide variety of older mechs were rediscovered. One of them was the Ostwar, with plans for the mech found in a Brian Cache discovered in the Deep Periphery by a band of mercenaries. Kong Interstellar acquired the plans and produced this, a vastly upgraded version of the venerable Ostwar to complement their Ostsol lines. Built on a 260-rated Light Fusion Engine, the Ostwar-2Q carries a recognizably Ostwar loadout: a LRM-20 for ranged firepower and a pair each of Medium Pulses and Streak SRM-6s. Double heat sinks and jump jets give the mech longevity in the fight.
