Morning, E.B.S.I.S. Base, Perimeter Watchpost 47-5...

The young Corporal peered through his binoculars at the distant fast approaching object. What he saw left him dumbstruck. A rocket powered, tracked vehicle dragging two IceGuard Troopers on snowboards with a Gura Invid Warrior clinging on to the front for dear life.

As he reached for his mic to make a report, the object roared past his position, flew into the base's main hanger, and exploded...

‘Heikki Lunta’ IMU
Components:
*M2200 Janissary IFV
*Forward Fuselage, Commanchero Attack Helicopter
*Arm and Shoulder Asemblies, VF/A Alpha Fighter
*Assorted Linkages/Actuators/Sub-Assemblies, Salamander Battloid
*Various armor scraps
Some argue that this creation, kludged together by a remote polar garrison, doesn’t count as a proper IMU, but try telling that to its creators, the technicians of Ice Guard. The ‘ Heikki Lunta’ was assembled together from surplus parts laying about the garrison base, with the basis being a centauroid configuration of a Commanchero fuselage mounted on a Salamander waist turntable installed atop a Janissary hull. The nose guns of the Commanchero were retained, and extra armor(mainly pieces of scavenged Regult found littering the northern wastes) applied to the hull and cockpit. Spare Salamander shoulder blocs were installed just behind the cockpit, and used to mount two VF/A arm assemblies.
The VF/A arms were a windfall found by Ice Guard while scrounging the abandoned base of a rival unit(the 1st North Wing), where they found a stockpile of VF/A-5 spare parts. These parts were actually part of the parallel VF/A development program continued by the UEG on Earth after the Pioneer/SDF-3 expedition left with the majority of the research group. Work continued on Earth in a desultory fashion and a satisfactorily-working VF/A variant, known as the VF/A-5C ‘Redhawk’ (or ‘Redtail’) was finalized for production, but thanks largely to politics the Southern Cross had already favored the Logan and Ajax designs, and the VF/A-5C was produced in much smaller numbers and saw less extent deployment(most notably offworld garrisons such as the Mars colonies), and continued development, with funding cuts to the program, shifted to non-veritech and drone versions of the airframe. The lack of complete VF/A-5s at the North Wing base suggested to the Ice Guard repo crews that the North Wing complement had pulled out and redeployed elsewhere and did not have time or wherewithall to pull out their logistical support, or else were expecting to return. Having acquired a large inventory of spare parts for a mecha type that they did not (yet) operate, Ice Guard engineers experimented to applying the newer technologies and components to their own gear. The shoulder and forearm missile launchers gave the IMU added firepower, and with the need for transformation not an issue, the IG techs used the space in the forearms normally used to house transformation components to install additional forearm weaponry, typically .50 caliber machine guns or capacitor-powered energy weapons put together from heavy infantry or power armor weaponry.
Though derided by later arrivals to the Ice Guard region as a ‘hopped-up TCH-4’ and of dubious value against the faster-moving Invid, the handful of ‘Heikki Lunta’ ‘armed tractors’ were used mainly as airfield security vehicles, salvage tractors(the arms coming in particularly handy) and training platforms. Though they saw little action against Invid raiders, the type did see extensive action against various Genesis Pit-spawned mutants roaming the north polar regions, attacking settlements there.

‘Jack Frost’ IMU
Components:
*Arm and Shoulder Asemblies, VF/A Alpha Fighter
* Torso, Head, and Legs, Salamander Battloid
* Jump Thruster Assembly, Regult Battlepod
*Various armor scraps
The ‘Jack Frost’ was a much simpler and straighforward ‘proper’ Ice Guard IMU meant to address the mobility and versatility issues of the ‘Heikki Lunta’. The ‘Jack Frost’ mounted modified VF/A-5 arm assemblies on the shoulder blocs of Ice Guard Salamander Battloids, increasing the mechas’ missile armaments and adding forearm guns. Other changes, based on IG’s successful CBH-4IG Yeti conversion kit, included larger footpads for reduced ground pressure on snow and ice, and added insulation and joint-sealing against arctic cold.
Though initial JF conversions were basically arm replacement jobs, many individual examples also saw modification with a more powerful second-hand thruster scavenged off a Regult battlepod installed on the back(these models were nicknamed ‘jet turtles’ due to disparities in size between the large Zentraedi mecha components and the smaller ASC-designed battloids). The increased mobility afforded by the more powerful thrusters was offset by a tendency, at least in the early modifications, of incompatibilites between the two different robotechnologies leading to circuity overheats, blown fuse connections, and mistimed thruster ignition sequences(the thruster either cutting out too early or remaining firing too long). IG technicians eventually solved these problems, but before some spectacular accidents(including one JF with a stuck open-throttle thruster ‘pogoing’ it across the landscape).
Produced in greater numbers than the earlier ‘Heikki Lunta’(the argument finally having gotten through that mecha parts were best utilized for proper mecha), ‘Jack Frosts’ saw much more action against Invid and later Haydonite opponents. Southern Cross veterans assigned to JFs bemoaned the lack of arm shields on the Salamander conversions, but appreciated the extra long range missile power available to them(although this became a headache for logistics, trying to acquire and maintain missile stocks ahead of missile-spam-happy pilots and panicked novices expending their payloads in one or two big salvoes). The JF conversion was one of the few Ice Guard developments that did not remain exclusive to the IG, and examples were sold to, or copied by, outside groups fighting the Invid. The increasing presence of the returned UEEF and offworld forces, though, meant that salvageable VF/A components were increasingly reserved for repairing the greater number of available Alpha Fighters, rather than being diverted to kitbashing the diminishing numbers of Southern Cross mecha kept running, and ‘Jack Frost’ conversions thus saw only a short production run.
