Silverback Lance

Silverback lance is the Monkeys’ overall command lance and the anchor unit for First Company. Silverback is designed to operate from a longer distance than other Monkey lances, acting as fire support and allowing Bane to direct traffic.

All the mechs in Silverback are heavy units with the same movement profile. They also use either standard or light fusion engines so that they are more durable on the battlefield. This allows the Silverbacks to increase accuracy by remaining stationary without too great a concern for return fire.

Since Commander Bane’s attention is often focused on overall command of the Monkeys, Gerda Wolf serves as second in command of the lance.
