The Hunchback
hunch1.jpg

CREW: 1 Pilot
 
PROPULSION: MekTek Medium Duty Reactor Drive system
 
WEAPONS:  2 MkII lasers, 1 MekTek ULTRA AC-10 Autocannon

The Hunchback used by the Clan is different from the others-it is re-equipped with Boron-Carbonite armor, which is lighter and tougher, and an expanded ammo rack for it's special weapon, the U-AC-10.  Widely liked in Clan Medium-Light attack and scout lances, it is a staple on the battlefield.  Operating along with one or two other mechs, such as the Shadowcat, it can 'gang up' on larger mechs with devastating results.  This model is used in the Clan's Special Forces Unit, made up of light but tough mechs, who take pride in their camoflauge markings.
