Jihad era unit Hannibal's Hermits.  Originally started out as a Kuritan  merc unit in the early 30th century, but due to a string of bad luck and political maneuvering, found themselves in the employ of the Word of Blake in the late 3060s.

Unfortunately, I neglected to pay attention to the fact that the unit was disbanded in 3072 and confirmed destroyed by 3081 so at least 1 if not 2 of the mechs here are actually anachronistic, as they were not introduced until the 3100s.

I wanted to kitbash a Yeoman and ended up making it look more like a WoB designed mech, using a Grigori the base and use the wonderfully already supplied MML5s, as well as the Goliath LRMs to keep it a Marik designed mech. 

The Tempest was a simple mod to recycle the one legged mini, since it was a donor for the Temax Cat Ninjabolt.  Gave it the PP Ostroc legs to keep the weight profile similar.

There’s a similarly named unit in the Dark Ages, maybe they are the descendants of the old Hermits, killed of post-Jihad?

Anyway, like the paint jobs! Really nice work
